Frequently Asked Questions

Hot melt glue sticks are solid thermoplastic adhesives designed for use in glue guns. Once heated, they melt into a liquid and quickly set when cooled.

They are commonly used in packaging, product assembly, woodworking, electronics, POP displays, and arts and crafts applications.

This is an ideal solution for those who need to use a hot melt but can not justify the capital expense required to obtain hot melt dispensing equipment.

Depending on the formulation, glue sticks can bond to a wide range of materials including paper, cardboard, plastics, wood, ceramics, fabrics, leather, glass, and some heat-sensitive materials.

Many formulations are also suitable for general assembly and packaging applications.

Fast set glue sticks (like GS 101 or GS 104) bond very quickly, making them ideal for high-speed assembly or crafts where immediate hold is needed.

Longer open time glue sticks (like GS 114 or GS 127) allow more time to position materials before the adhesive sets, which is helpful for packaging, floral work, and larger assemblies.

Many industrial glue sticks meet FDA 175.105 standards for indirect food contact, making them suitable for certain packaging applications.

Users should always review the MSDS and product specifications to ensure safe and proper use.

Key advantages include:

  • Economical and easy to use
  • No need for complex or expensive application equipment
  • Solvent-free and low odor
  • Quick set times for efficient production
  • Available in multiple formulations for different materials and performance needs
