In the packaging industry, adhesives play a much bigger role
than most people realize. The right adhesive not only keeps packaging strong
but also improves its look, feel, and performance. At Cosmo Speciality
Chemicals, a wide range of adhesives are designed to meet the specific needs of
lamination, flexible packaging, and carton pasting.
For products like food, cosmetics, or pharmaceuticals, lamination adhesives are
commonly used to bond films to paper or board. Cosmo offers dry lamination
solutions. Dry lamination adhesives cure quickly, giving strong bonds and a
glossy, wrinkle-free finish—perfect for high-speed production lines. They don’t
contain harmful chemicals and give clear, stable results, even when the
packaging is exposed to sunlight.
Flexible packaging is everywhere—from snack wrappers to medical pouches. Here,
adhesives need to perform under tough conditions like heat, pressure, and
chemical exposure. Cosmo provides solvent-less polyurethane adhesives. Their
solvent-less PU adhesives are particularly popular because they are safe for
the environment, bond quickly, and give excellent durability. They also work
well in high-temperature applications, making them reliable for demanding
packaging needs.
Cartons and corrugated boxes need strong flap bonding to hold their shape
during storage and transport. For this, Cosmo has developed water-based
side-pasting adhesives that can be applied easily through rollers or nozzles.
They are clean to use, efficient on production lines, and ensure a sturdy
finish for every box.
Making the Right Choice
The choice of adhesive depends on what the packaging needs to achieve. If speed
and gloss are priorities, dry lamination is the way to go. Flexible packaging
calls for durable PU adhesives, while cartons work best with side-pasting
adhesives.
With its advanced, sustainable, and performance-driven
adhesive solutions, Cosmo Speciality Chemicals helps packaging companies meet
modern challenges while staying eco-conscious.
