It’s time for ASI’s annual Buyers’ Guide, a purchasing and applications resource for raw materials, equipment, and services used to manufacture adhesives and sealants, pressure sensitives, and adhesives and sealants products such as tapes and labels. The Buyers’ Guide also includes supplier details for finished adhesives and sealants.


Explore the Buyers’ Guide in the Digital Edition

In our digital edition, the Buyers’ Guide is divided into five main sections: Associations, Product Index, Product Listings, and Suppliers and Distributors. The Product Listings are divided into nine major categories: Additives and Chemical Specialties; Oils and Fatty Acids; Resins and Base Polymers; Pigments and Dyes, Dry/Dispersions; Solvents; Containers, Packaging and Material Handling; Equipment; Finished Adhesives and Sealants; and Services.

If you know the name of the manufacturer(s), go directly to the Supplier Listings to find out more about the company. The Supplier Listings provide addresses, key personnel, telephone and fax numbers, and email and website addresses, as well as brief descriptions of the supplier companies.

If you do not know the names of the manufacturers that supply the products of interest, simply refer to the Product Index. Products are listed alphabetically under each of the major categories. Find the appropriate page and go to the Product Listings section, where an alphabetical listing of manufacturers/suppliers appears under each product heading. Advertising companies are listed in boldface type, and the page numbers of those ads can be found in the Ad Index.
