FROM PETROCHEMICAL TO COMPOSTABLE HOT MELT ADHESIVE
Traditional Hot Melt Adhesive
Petrochemical-based, cools to form a solid bond
Natural Substrate Bonding Adhesive
Petrochemical-based, optimized for bonding natural substrates
Bio-Based Adhesive
Biomass-based, optimized with materials sourced in nature
100% solid thermoplastic compound that can be melted and solidified
multiple times
Our Full-Care™ 5000 construction hot melt adhesives, including both
rubber- or olefin-based formulations, provide optimized performance
and supply assurance
Supports substitution of petrochemical components with bio-based and
renewable raw materials
Based largely on materials derived from natural sources and
hence can be replenished naturally with the passage of time
Retains strong bonding performance across a wide range of substrates
Industrial Compostable Adhesive
Biomass-based, optimized with materials that can be
composted under specific conditions
Hot melt adhesives that can be broken down into a nutrient-rich
substrate under specific rules, time frame and quality of the
composting process
Contains high levels of bio-based and renewable raw materials for
the most efficient life cycle management
High wet strength exceeding industry standard performance on
100% cotton and viscose for final product integrity
Full-Care™ 5885 meets the certification requirements of ECO
PASSPORT by OEKOTEX® and Astma-Allergi Blue Label
The viscosity profile allows application at lower temperatures
