Hot melt adhesives by Warren Adhesives available through Adhesive Solutions.

By

Hot melt adhesives are widely used in the packaging Industry, case and crating manufacturing, mattress and foam fabrication and other Industries. Hot Melts are the most cost efficient adhesive when compared by weight to liquid adhesives for the simple fact that they are 100% solids – everything applied is use.

Hot Melts are applied typically only on one side of the substrates to bond, either in beads or with air forming a swirl pattern which improves square coverage and reduces telegraphing.

Hot Melts are not regulated by the Air Quality Districts.
There is no need for special warehousing and they have a very long shelf life.

Spectrum Foam Stick II Water Base Adhesive Foam Cement

By

Throughout several visits made to different foam manufacturers in Southern California, we have found some establishments are required to use only water based adhesives on their fabrication process. Fire regulations, insurance policies or City Permits play a role in the decision making when using solvents vs non solvents, not only for adhesives, but for cleaners, primers, paints etc.

Spectrum Foam Stick II is a new generation of modified synthetic latex designed to replace solvent based adhesives in spray applications for many foam-bonding constructions. Foam Stick II provides good green strength within 5-10 seconds after application. This product will give foam-tearing bonds with 10-20 minutes. Foam Stick II will bond foam to itself, wood, metals and plastic materials.

The standard in the Piñata Industry

By

standard piñata adhesives

Over the past 25 years, V&S 581, Foam & Fabric Spray Adhesive has become the standard for the piñata industry.

It is the quality product manufacturers seek when they want only the best for creating their product.  581 is fast, yet offers the perfect open time for applying the many layers of paper, etc. when making piñatas.

Yet, 581 will “stand up” on the surface without undue “bleed through” allowing users the benefit of creating sufficient bonds.

581 – THE ONLY CHOICE!

Adhesives: Solvent vs. Water Based

By

Solvent Based – Flammable/Non-Flammable

For many years the majority of adhesives were manufactured exclusively with hydrocarbon solvents, i.e. acetone, benzene, hexane, toluene, etc. These solvents were perfectly suited for dissolving various rubbers and resins to create the “perfect” emulsion that allowed these adhesives to be sprayed efficiently. As a result, these adhesives dry very quickly.[Read More]
