Frequently Asked Questions

Dry blend adhesives are supplied as powders that are mixed with water before use. Unlike liquid adhesives, they offer longer shelf life, easier storage, and reduced shipping costs.

They also allow manufacturers to mix adhesive on-site, which improves batch control and consistency.

PVOH dry blend adhesives are commonly used in high-volume industrial applications such as tube winding, laminating, edge board production, angle boards, and edge protectors.

They are available as ready-to-use formulations or dry mixes that can be customized to match specific equipment and performance requirements.

Starch-based adhesives are widely used in corrugating board manufacturing. Options such as one-bag mixes or concentrate blends simplify production by reducing the need to handle chemicals like caustic or boric.

These adhesives provide reliable bonding performance while remaining cost-effective and operator friendly.

Gelatin-based adhesives are typically used in rigid box assembly, bookbinding, and general packaging.

Supplied as a one-bag dry mix, they provide good shelf life, consistent performance, and medium set speeds suitable for packaging and specialty paper applications.

Key advantages include:

  • Cost-effective for large-scale production
  • Improved batch consistency and reduced mixing errors
  • Custom formulations based on equipment and application needs
  • Water-resistant and specialty performance options available
  • Operator-friendly mixing with simplified chemical handling
