Hot melt adhesives are water and solvent-free adhesives that consist of a mixture of thermoplastic polymers and can be processed at very high machine speeds. Thanks to clean processing and outstanding ageing behaviour, hot melt adhesives have proven their worth for profile wrapping for interior use, for the treatment of furniture edges and for surface lamination.
Hot melt adhesives based on PO
Hot melt adhesives based on PO are primarily suitable for the profile wrapping of various materials and are particularly qualified by high thermal stability and long open time.
Hot melt adhesives based on EVA
Adhesives of this series are ideal for the profile wrapping of various materials and for edge treatment and are of special interest for their outstanding adhesion properties and short open bonding time.
