A clean adhesive for everyday packaging

CLEAN MELT 8610 is among the first innovations from the technical centre of excellence founded by HB Fuller - the Adhesive Academy in Lüneburg (D) - which brings together experts in adhesives from various markets and countries and that, by pooling knowledge and ideas can develop excellent and effective solutions.

The new hot melt glue is designed to make “routine” packaging more competitive: a specific response to the demands to the retail market, that requires quality, good value products.
As noted by the Marketing Manager Elizabeth Staab «when we work on the development of products, we focus on innovations that solve complicated problems of adhesion. But what happens to more “simple” and everyday applications? When manufacturers use only one type of adhesive on boxes and cartons, one should ask oneself whether the product, at any rate fundamental, is really the best suited for the purpose».

HB Fuller describes CLEAN MELT 8610 as an adhesive formulated to ensure numerous advantages for the converter, reducing the costs of production, handling and transport. It does not dirty the machinery and guarantees a precise and effective application, with secure economic returns thanks also to the minimising of machine stops and residue.
The result of collaboration between specialists from various fields combined with a proper combination of raw materials, CLEAN MELT 8610 is a high added value, high performance product, with a guaranteed reliable supply in time.
