The adhesive materials specialist VPF is expanding its adhesive portfolio with a high-tack hot melt adhesive. The new adhesive HM302 is mineral oil-free, bio-based, has a very low CO2 footprint for hot melt adhesives and has a significantly higher initial tack than all previous VPF adhesives. \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

The synthetic rubber adhesive was brought to market maturity after extensive test series. The long development process focussed on a special adhesive with high adhesive strength and a low CO2 footprint. The result: the self Very high initial adhesion for a hotmelt adhesive<\/strong> according to FTM9 on glass of more than 40N \/ 25mm (with an application weight of just 30g\/m\u00b2) is considered exceptional. At the same time, the shear strengths remain within the range that is easy to process and punch.<\/p>\n

The VPF adhesive HM302 has other important advantages in addition to its outstanding adhesive strength values: The adhesive is absolutely free of mineral oil and can therefore be Can be combined with almost all paper and film face materials<\/strong>. The adhesive is approved for direct food contact and, due to its adhesive strength, is particularly suitable for labelling difficult, even non-polar surfaces - including cheese rind, for example.<\/p>

The innovative HM302 adhesive has a certified organic content of at least 45 per cent. The Organic content is obtained from soya bean waste<\/strong>, so that there is no conflict with food production. The use of biomass significantly reduces the CO2 footprint of the adhesive and is now only on a par with a standard dispersion acrylate.<\/p>\n

Due to its convincing advantages - performance and sustainability - VPF is positioning the new HM302 adhesive as a new standard hotmelt in its product range and is now offering the adhesive for a variety of applications from low minimum quantities. As usual, the adhesive can be Combined with all VPF face materials and cover materials according to the modular principle<\/strong> and, of course, with many more sustainable papers, films and recycled liners.<\/p>
