Bio-based Adhesives
Clean, sustainably sourced, bio-based raw materials play an increasing role in the development of our adhesives. Sourcing the latest polymers and resins, combined with research into the latest formulation technologies, Beardow Adams offers a range of adhesives with exceptionally high bio-based content.
BAM 1544 is our best-selling ‘green’ hot-melt adhesive with 35% bio-based materials. We would describe this product as a general-purpose grade for case and carton sealing, as well as tray forming. BAM 1544 is a versatile, cost effective adhesive that offers good hot and cold resistance to untreated boards, gives excellent adhesion to a wide range of substrates and has a high molten tack – meaning is has a high holding power even while in a molten state.
BAM 43VE is Beardow Adams’ latest hot-melt vegan adhesive with FDA approval - meaning it can be used in the manufacturing of food labelling and packaging. The product is not made from animal-derived materials and meets the standards of customers seeking a product that meets the principles of veganism – our manufacturing process is subject to clear-out procedures to ensure there is no cross-contamination with any other adhesives being made, for example.
Beardow Adams manufactures many bio-based adhesives for other industries in addition to packaging, such as labelling, mattress assembly and springs and tapes. Contact: marketing@beardowadams.com if you would like more information on our green products and services.
