Technicote, Inc. has launched a new Sub Zero hot-melt adhesive for low temperature. The freezer-grade adhesive is designed to adhere to work in challenging freezer applications.
Freezing temperatures create some of the most demanding challenges for label adhesives. Many general-purpose adhesives does not stick to products that have been frozen during the packaging process. Technicote has created Sub Zero hot-melt adhesive specifically to face the stress of frozen storage and shipping environments.
Features of the New Low Temperature HMA
Sub Zero is an aggressive rubber based hot-melt adhesive designed to work in challenging freezer applications. This adhesive displays high initial tack and ultimate adhesion when applied to a variety of packages in typically demanding freezer temperatures as low as -10°. It is also compliant with FDA regulation 21 CFR 175.105 for indirect food contact.
“
Sub Zero not only provides our customers a versatile adhesive working on substrates including corrugated, rough surfaces and packages exposed to frost, the Sub Zero adhesive can be combined with a large number of facestocks and liners to provide the perfect solution to customers labeling needs. We are in the business of providing solutions and feel the addition of Sub Zero is a great fit for Technicote,” said marketing director, Ed Klene.
