In the constantly growing pharmaceutical industry, packaging machines run faster than in other sectors. Henkel Adhesive Technologies has therefore developed a new hot melt adhesive solution especially for high-speed machines in the pharmaceutical industry. The adhesive enables a smooth production process with consistently high quality.
The demand for pharmaceuticals is increasing and with it the demand for pharmaceutical packaging. This requires adhesives that Even at extremely high processing speeds work reliably and precisely. Conventional hot melts with setting times of 0.5 seconds and more are not suitable. In addition, there is growing pressure to fulfil the highest international safety standards such as EU regulations and FDA guidelines on food and drug compliance as well as strict hygiene and purity requirements to avoid contamination. The globally available Technomelt Supra PRO 301 Plus addresses all these requirements. It offers a Ultra-fast setting time of just 160 milliseconds as well as a string-free application that requires fewer cleaning interruptions and increases production efficiency.
„With Technomelt Supra PRO 301 Plus, we offer an adhesive that enables maximum adhesion and quality on a wide range of substrates and also impresses with its suitability for deep-freeze applications. Our aim is to enable companies to concentrate fully on their production processes - while we take care of optimising the adhesive. This is also ensured by our technical customer service, which sets up the application equipment together with the customer for the individual application and is always available to answer any questions afterwards - worldwide.“
Felicia Forster, Market Strategy Manager Packaging & Labeling Adhesives at Henkel
Henkel's adhesive solution goes beyond the mere performance requirements: It enables the elimination of additional labels in tamper-evidence applications by makes manipulation attempts visible in the form of a fibre tear. The hotmelt thus enables a Better recyclability of the packaging. In addition to the positive impact on the environment, this also benefits pharmaceutical companies, as the adhesive helps to fulfil increasingly strict environmental regulations. In this way, Technomelt Supra PRO 301 Plus scores highly in terms of efficiency and sustainability.
