Leading Innovation in Foundry Adhesive Technology
Sustainable & High-Performance
The Foundrytec® adhesive system sets a new standard by replacing traditional bonding methods for mould cores with a faster, more high-performance alternative. Offering superior adhesion, safety, and cost savings, Foundrytec hot melts are designed for the modern foundry.
High-Speed Adhesion
Foundrytec hot melts significantly increase production speeds with near-instant bonding, minimising core movement and downtime, thereby boosting productivity and accuracy in core production.
Low Ash & Outgassing
Formulated to reduce the risk of gassing, Foundrytec adhesives protect the integrity of the core with low ash and outgassing characteristics, ensuring the quality and safety of the foundry environment.
Precision Application Control
Foundrytec allows for precise adhesive application, vital for complex mould designs. This ensures strong, accurate bonds, reducing waste and improving casting quality.
Space Saving
With their fast-setting properties, cores and shells bonded with hot melt can be moved through the production process immediately, reducing warehouse spaces dedicated to drying.
Enhanced Durability and Flexibility
Foundrytec adhesives form durable bonds resistant to the mechanical stress and temperature shifts in foundry processes, maintaining mould and cast integrity during production.
Solvent free formula
Foundrytec adhesives contain no harmful chemicals or airborne particles, eliminating the need for personal protective equipment (PPE) and improving workplace safety.
Cost Efficiency
By efficiently utilising adhesives, Foundrytec reduces overall material consumption and waste, leading to cost savings and a lower environmental impact.
Storage
With their stable formulation, Foundrytec adhesives only require storing in their original packaging, with no special environmental factors, lowering energy consumption and simplifying inventory management.
