Tecbond 214B

Tecbond 214B is a biodegradable packaging adhesive, formulated with 45% bio-based, sustainably sourced raw materials. Tecbond 214B is based on the best-selling Tecbond 214 packaging adhesive.

The degradation process will occur in the presence of oxygen. When the adhesive is exposed to ultraviolet light, the speed of the degradation process is greatly increased. The adhesive should be kept away from direct sunlight when not in use.

Tecbond 214B’s short open time speeds up carton closing procedures, with no need for extended holding or clamping periods after compression. Coupled with the adhesives cost per closure, Tecbond 214B is the ideal replacement for staples or tape for cardboard bonding applications.

Tecbond 1X

Tecbond 1X is a woodworking and packaging adhesive designed to bond cardboard, paper, and wood substrates. Tecbond 1X has been specifically formulated to have a lower viscosity than many other market comparable adhesives, resulting in better surface penetration and tighter final joints.

Alongside tighter joints, Tecbond 1X’s low viscosity provides excellent output when used in conjunction with Tec applicators.

Tecbond 214

Tecbond 214 is an economical packaging adhesive designed for use on most paper and board substrates. Tecbond 214 is one of the best-selling packaging adhesives due to its strong bonding capabilities, high molten tack, and fast setting speeds.

Formulated using 40% bio-based materials, Tecbond 214’s short open time speeds up carton closing procedures, with no need for extended holding or clamping periods after compression. Coupled with the adhesives cost per closure, Tecbond 214 is the ideal replacement for staples or tape for cardboard bonding applications.

Tecbond 14

Tecbond 14 is a very fast-setting packaging adhesive designed for use on most paper and board substrates. It is ideal for carton closing and tray forming, and suitable for specialty packaging, point of sale, and wrap-around cartons.

The adhesive is formulated to maximise delivery rate, and sets very fast when compressed. These two features mean packages can be secured in a fraction of the time when compared to taping or stapling. There’s also no need to hold the materials in place as the bond is almost instantaneous.
