An industrial-grade wax with a 35% lower carbon footprint is helping packaging-adhesive formulators reduce their Scope 3 greenhouse gas emissions.

Among the polymers used in packaging HMA formulations, low-viscosity polyolefin materials have demonstrated superior adhesion, improved low application temperature, ease of processability, and thermal stability versus EVA-based formulations.

Fully certified, the product is designed for use by carton, corrugated packaging, and point-of-sale converters, as well as contract packers.

An innovative production process delivers proprietary gas-to-liquid, Fischer-Tropsch wax with a 35% lower carbon footprint without compromising performance.

Five labeling products by Henkel have been recognized by the Association of Plastic Recyclers for meeting the highest criteria for recyclability according to the APR Design Guide for Plastics Recyclability.

HMT Manufacturing produces hot-melt adhesives and laminating systems that join almost any material, such as fabric, wood, melamine, foil and cork, to virtually any substrate including plywood, polystyrene, rubber, steel, and foam.

The high-performing resin from a renewable source can be applied by adhesive formulators or designers in furniture, edge banding, electronics, hot melt film, textile lamination, seam tape, footwear, and transportation.

With its new addition of EasyLine products, Robatech is providing a small, practical system for simple hot melt applications.

Henkel Adhesive Technologies offers hot melt adhesive solutions for right-sized cartons and envelopes. 

Thermelt is a non-reactive, solvent-free, and bio-based adhesive, consisting of rapeseed and castor bean derivatives.
