Edge Banding
In the edge banding field, the adhesive requirements of the furniture industry are constantly increasing, especially regarding faster application, temperature and heat resistance, shapes and materials. Suitable adhesive systems for edge banding are :
- EVA Hot Melts
- PO Hot Melts (Ethylene-vinyl acetate and polyolefin) :
– Based on thermoplastic synthetics or resins which set purely physical
– Reach strength immediately after cooling and setting or after crystallisation
– Temperature resistance from -20°C to 110°C (PO)
- Reactive PUR Hot Melts (polyurethane) :
– Besides the physical setting there is a chemical cross linking
– Much higher temperature and moisture resistance from -40°C up to 140°C
