Environment

Hot melt adhesives are a clean, affordable bonding solution that produce little to no waste.

Non-toxic, with no airborne chemicals or solvents, hot melts are kinder to both people and planet than many other kinds of adhesive technology.

Hot melts are used completely in the bond: there is no solvent, water or other chemicals that need to be packaged, transported, and then are released as the adhesive sets

There’s no waste: any unused adhesive in application equipment is simply remelted when the equipment is turned back on

There is no waste from mixing or expensive packaging such as aerosols, tins, and plastic containers

Hot melt adhesives have no shelf life, so can be stored cleanly for long periods without risk of expiry

Spray hot melt systems do not require solvent and do not go airborne, reducing the need for PPE and the likelihood workplace mess

Since the setting time for hot melt is almost instant, no drying rooms or additional storage is required; saving time, space and energy
