Interiors & Trim

Providing superior and uncompromised bond strength, our hot melt solutions are used across a selection of interior trim sections and accessories.

Substrate Compatibility

Many of our automotive adhesives are multi-purpose and will bond a variety of substrates including metal, wood, fabric, foams, and many plastics. This allows automotive companies to cut down on costs by using a single adhesive for several sections of interior trim.

Unyielding Bond Strength

Our automotive hot melts prioritise structural strength, providing robust bonds that ensure interior trim pieces and components remain securely in place, even under the stress of daily use. Alongside console pieces, dashboard panels and door trims, our solutions can also bond roof lining as well as seat fabric.

Tailored Application

Our adhesives are available in a variety of formats to suit the specific needs of the user. Whether it’s bulk adhesive for automated machinery, 43mm slugs compatible with Tec spray applicators, or 12mm sticks for smaller glue guns.

Adhesives perfect for vehicle interiors

Our automotive focused adhesives provide reliable, cost-effective solutions to manufacturers looking to move away from solvent-based spray solutions and cyanoacrylates. We guarantee premium quality adhesives tailored each specific application and requirement.

Oil Filters

From attaching endcaps to the top of the oil filter, to securing the pleated paper to the centre tube, our polyamide-based hot melts provide hard-wearing bonds whilst cutting down on machinery costs.

Oil and Chemical Resistance

Our automotive hot melt solutions offer excellent resistance to oil and various chemicals commonly found in automotive environments. This resistance ensures that the adhesive bonds remain intact and strong, even when exposed to harsh substances, maintaining the integrity of the oil filter.

High Temperature Tolerance

With the ability to withstand temperatures of up to 135°C, our adhesives ensure oil filters perform reliably under the high-temperature conditions typically found in engine blocks. This thermal stability is crucial in stopping oil filter from breaking apart under increased thermal load.

Enhanced Mechanical Strength

Formulated to withstand fluctuations in not only temperature, but also movement and increased oil flow, our automotive solutions ensures that the oil filter components remain securely bonded throughout their lifespan.

Fast Setting

Many automated processes use adhesive that needs to be heated after compression to speed up the curing time. As hot melt adhesives set rather than cure, the adhesive grab is near instantaneous, with a stable bond created after a few minutes, without the need for heating.

Polyamide bonding solutions

Our temperature resistant formulations are a must for filter manufacturers who are looking for alternatives to slow-curing, less cost-effective adhesives. Available in shaped and bulk formats, our solutions are compatible with any automated machinery commonly in fast-paced industries.

Tecbond 23

Tecbond 23 is an EVA-based multi-purpose product assembly adhesive designed for use on fabrics, ceramics, wood, and many plastics such as PVC, polycarbonate, and acrylics (not PP or PE). This makes it a good all-around adhesive for product assembly and construction applications.

The adhesives extended open and working time provide security in the production process, allowing adjustments to be made shortly after initial compression before the final bond is made.

Tecbond 261 – The tough but flexible product assembly adhesive

Tecbond 261 is a versatile and strong product assembly adhesive with the ability to bond a variety of substrates, including wood, metal, glass, ceramics, and many plastics, including polypropylene. The adhesive’s high bond strength and flexibility also make it ideal for many general-purpose applications.

Along with its high bond strength, Tecbond 261 features class-leading output, reducing effort on the glue gun trigger and ensuring the user can dispense as much adhesive as required. Additionally, 261’s longer open time allows for the accurate positioning of substrates before compression, at which point the adhesive dries quickly with enough bond flexibility to withstand small substrate movements.

With the ability to run through both hot and low melt applicators, the properties of Tecbond 261 can be tailored to suit the needs of the user. Running the adhesive at the highest temperature lowers its viscosity, increases its open time, and ensures the strongest possible bonds. When run at lower temperatures, not only can the adhesive be used on heat-sensitive substrates, but the higher viscosity also decreases sag.

Available in 12mm and 15mm sticks and 43mm slugs, Tecbond 261 has been formulated in tandem with the range of Tec applicators. This ensures both the adhesive and tool deliver optimal results when used together. For the highest possible output, we suggest using 261 with the 3000, 6000, and 7000 series applicators.

Like all adhesives in the Tecbond range, Tecbond 261 doesn’t contain any organic solvents or harmful chemicals that are given off in the application process. This negates the need for respiratory PPE. The adhesive also has a near-unlimited shelf life with no wastage, as any unused adhesive left in the applicator is simply remelted whenever the tool is next switched on.
