Advantages Of Packaging with Hot Melt Adhesives

Strong and Reliable Bonds:

Hot melt adhesives provide strong and reliable bonds, ensuring that packaging materials stay securely sealed during transportation, storage, and handling. These adhesives offer excellent adhesion to a wide range of substrates, including paper, cardboard, plastics, foils, and more.
Fast Setting Time:

Hot melt adhesives have a rapid setting time, meaning they cool and solidify quickly after application. This allows for efficient and continuous packaging operations, especially on high-speed production lines. The fast setting time enables faster processing and increases productivity.
Increased Productivity:

Hot melt adhesive application is typically automated, allowing for high-speed and precise bonding. It eliminates the need for drying or curing time associated with other adhesive types, resulting in faster production cycles. Additionally, hot melt adhesives do not require mixing or preparation, reducing setup and cleanup time.
Versatility:

Hot melt adhesives can bond a wide range of packaging materials, including porous and non-porous substrates. They can securely bond materials such as paper, cardboard, plastics, foils, and fabrics. This versatility makes hot melt adhesives suitable for various packaging applications, from carton sealing to case and tray forming.
Resistance to Temperature and Moisture:

Hot melt adhesives offer good resistance to temperature variations and moisture. They maintain their bond strength even under challenging conditions, such as exposure to hot or cold environments, humidity, or moisture. This ensures the integrity and durability of the packaging during storage and transportation.
Environmental Benefits:

Hot melt adhesives are considered environmentally friendly compared to solvent-based adhesives. They have low or no volatile organic compound (VOC) content and do not release harmful fumes during application or curing. This makes them safer for workers and reduces environmental impact.

Packaging Tapes v.s Packaging Hot Melt Adhesive

Packaging Tapes are pre-adhesive tapes that provide an immediate bond, while Packaging Hot Melt Adhesives are applied in a liquid form and solidify to form a strong bond. Both methods offer advantages depending on the specific packaging requirements, such as speed, bond strength, and versatility.

See with Tex Year, packaging makes dairy nutrition at your fingertips.

Relevant reports show that only 36 kg of milk is consumed per person per year in the country! The rate is far below the world drinking milk standard. Besides, the amount of milk consumed by Chinese is about only one-third of the average level of the world dairy industry. Have you been drinking dairy today?What nutrients does a dairy product give us?Dairy products are mainly composed of water, protein, fat, lactose and rich minerals. Billions of people around the world consume these high-quality nutrients from milk and dairy products every day.People also use the fat floating characteristics of milk to make a variety of dairy products.Liquid milk (sterilized milk, yogurt), milk powder, condensed milk, milk fat (cream), cheese, cream, other dairy products. How can dairy products preserve nutrition effectively?Dairy products are rich in various nutrients, providing people with nutrients; however, they may also become the natural medium of microorganisms, causing deterioration of dairy products. Unsuitable storage is prone to cause a series of chemical changes that accelerate these deterioration processes and let nutrition become a hazard.Different dairy products have different storage methods and time; we arrange the information as follow.Fresh milk, as known as pasteurized milk, usually filled in glass bottles or fresh milk house box and needs to be refrigerated.Normal temperature milk, after high temperature sterilization, commonly used in Tetra Pak packaging, carton pack, etc., does not require refrigeration.Yogurt, fermented by a number of bacteria, most of them need to be refrigerated. The ingredients are similar to milk, but the lactose ratio is reduced by about 30%. Those who are lactose intolerant can choose yogurt.Yogurt drink (including milk drink), general yogurt, sour milk, lactic acid bacteria drink, fruit milk, etc., can be stored at normal temperature. Packaging styles are different to save nutritionTo preserve the best nutrients in dairy products in different circumstances, we use kinds of packaging methods after sterilized.Common packaging methods for dairy products are:Aluminum foil bag, the sun cannot penetrate, can be aseptic filled, being suitable for normal temperature or cold storage, and having long-term preservation characteristics. In addition to dairy products, Aluminum foil bag is also used to fill juice and tea.Carton and paper cups, with waterproof plastic film, commonly used in packaging milk and juice.PET bottle, with lightweight, being shatterproof and easy to carry.Portable flexible packaging, being reusable convenience and space saving.

Low-VOC Hot Melt Adhesives for the Safety of Your Life

Low-VOC Hot Melt Adhesives for the Safety of Your Life

What are VOCs?VOCs is the acronym for Volatile Organic Compounds. The definition of VOCs is different among countries. They usually refer to the organic compounds that volatilize easily at room temperature. Burning of fuels and gases produced by transportations are the main source of outdoor VOCs. If it's indoors, they're usually produced from building or decoration materials, furniture, household appliances, cleaners, and so on. (Source: Wikipedia)As the air pollution becomes an increasingly serious problem in recent years, many countries established regulations to govern the air quality and speed up the reduction of the use of VOCs in major industries by promoting greening of industries and improving the quality of the atmospheric environment to protect the health of human beings.VOCs and air pollutionThe environmental trend of low VOCsThe Environmental Protection Administration governs the products containing VOCs, including adhesives and sealants, and sets a limit value of their concentration to reduce the emission of VOCs.Our core value is to provide environment-friendly, innovative, and safe products and protect the interests of our customers to meet the requirements of the laws and regulations.

Who is the winner in the market? MPO or EVA Hot Melt Adhesive?

Who is the winner in the market? MPO or EVA Hot Melt Adhesive?

Who is the winner in the market? MPO or EVA Hot Melt Adhesive?Metallocene Hot Melt Adhesive(MPO) and EVA series hot melt adhesives, what is the difference?What is Metallocene Hot Melt Adhesive(MPO)?Metallocene refers to a class of catalysts used in the polymerization process to produce a specific type of polyolefin. Polyolefins are polymers derived from olefin monomers, such as ethylene and propylene. Metallocene catalysts enable the production of polymers with unique properties, including precise control over the molecular structure and a narrow molecular weight distribution.What is EVA Hot Melt Adhesive?EVA Hot Melt Adhesive refers to a type of hot melt adhesive (HMA) that is made from Ethylene Vinyl Acetate (EVA) copolymers. EVA is a thermoplastic polymer that is widely used in various industries due to its excellent adhesive properties and versatility.TEX YEAR leads you to this century competition and helps you clarify everything once and for all.Advantages: Metallocene VS. EVA Hot MeltEthylene vinyl acetate (EVA)Metallocene polyolefin (MPO)Commonly used basic polymerWider operation temperature range than EVAThe type and quantity of wax and resin controlling the clotting time and stickinessLighter color and less odorFiller allowed under specific conditionsGood thermal stability Quick operation setting Lower densityWe have complete EVA production lines for our “TEX YEAR” products. The adhesive strips and packaging glues, in particular, are in a leading position in the industry.Products in response to the development trend of the international and domestic markets are also produced under the brand name “TEX YEAR.”Properties: Metallocene VS. EVA Hot MeltMetallocene hot melt adhesive - comparison of properties│TEX YEARThe Proportion of MPO and EVA is 0.90 and 0.98, respectively. Though the weight of both adhesives are same, MPO is bigger, has higher mass and, thus, more usable adhesive amount, making it more advantageous in this respect.When comparing under the same conditions, the experiment proved that MPO hot melt adhesive can be applied to 4 more pieces than EVA!!Total application weight: 10gramApplication thickness/piece: 40mmOperation temperature: 160℃~180℃Strengths: Metallocene VS. EVA Hot MeltIn fact, both EVA and MPO hot melt adhesives can meet the strength requirements of the customers. However, the specific weight, density, and volume of the Metallocene hot melt adhesive as well as the same strength with less MPO than EVA enable a saving of 10~20% use amount of the MPO adhesive in comparison with the traditional EVA adhesive. This is obviously an outstanding advantage of the MPO hot melt adhesive.Shapes: Metallocene VS. EVA Hot MeltMetallocene hot melt adhesive - comparison of shapes│TEX YEARIn addition to the properties and advantages, neat and clean shapes are required to make the first impression. This is more the focus of MPO than EVA. The arrangement of the Metallocene hot melt adhesive is more neat and tidy. It is relative not stringy and, thus, can produce more beautifully shaped finished products to sell at a higher price.Durability: Metallocene Hot Melt VS.

Small Amount with Significant Effects: Applications of Hot Melt Adhesives to Epidemic Prevention Wet Wipes

Since the epidemic has not stopped in 2021, it is crucial to know how to clean our hands anywhere and at any time to prevent being infected through our mouth or nose! Wet wipes are especially convenient for us to clean our hands when we can’t find water to wash our hands outside. If children soil their hands, they can be easily cleaned with several wet wipes.Choice of right wet wipes for epidemic preventionThere are plenty of wet wipe products on the market, including baby wipes, general cleaning wet wipes, makeup remover wipes, feminine hygiene wet wipes, hygiene wet wipes, functional wet wipes, etc. Even though these types of wet wipes are generally called wet wipes, cleaning wet wipes are actually very different from hygiene wet wipes.Only the hygiene wet wipes have a sterilization function and can be used to destroy the microorganisms on the surface.In order to provide the sterilization function, disinfectant wet wipes contain alcohol, chlorine-containing disinfectant or preservatives. Wet wipe packages with a lid can prevent invasion of microorganisms after the seal is broken and ensure that volatile alcohol and water are less volatile.Tex Year hot-melt adhesives: Protection of your skin healthIn order to ensure the sealability, secondary use and draw-out wipe features for consumers, the manufacturers bond a PP plastic lid onto the mouth of packages with our hot-melt adhesives.Wet wipes are disposable hygiene products touching our bodies directly, and therefore, all stages in the production process of the wet wipes should be strictly checked. After manufacturers producing wet wipe lids select and use a hot-melt adhesive for their products, their products must meet national requirements and should be non-toxic, odorless and transparent, and the adhesive cannot affect package appearance and wet wipe storage!Tex Year hot-melt adhesives with reliable reputationIf a hot-melt adhesive with bad performance is used in wet wipe products, the whole package appearance could be affected, and the lid may slip off, come off, or the adhesive may ooze. Moreover, during the production process, the adhesive may become stringy, or the lid could come off due to adhesion loss of the adhesive.The hot melt adhesive for TEX YEAR wet wipe lids feature fluorescence, transparency, low odor, environmental friendliness, and non-toxicity.Good initial adhesion/holding properties (holding power at 40 degrees); good operability without stringinessOutstanding high temperature (60℃) and low temperature resistance (-20℃); impressive weather resistance - suitable at high and low temperature and for both summer and winterThe transparency of the product ensures a beautiful appearance of the wet wipe box after adhesion of the lid. The property of the product ensures adhesion to PP, PE, and PET materials.Features of Tex Year wet wipe lid adhesives:Less amount needed to save on cost: The product has strong stickiness and needs less amount than other similar products.Environmental friendliness without odor and smooth construction process: The product has a very light odor and meets the environmental protection standards. Smooth construction processes without stringiness and meeting the automated construction requirements.Strong stickiness and good weather resistance: The product has strong stickiness and can bond wet wipe boxes easily.

Even though we have been stopped from taking overseas trips for a long time, we remember the experience of going abroad. Before boarding a plane, we have to go through the most time-consuming process, the check-in procedure. Some airport may have self check-in kiosks in place to enable passengers to check in and print luggage tags quickly. RFID tags are what we are going to talk about today.Adhesives for RFID tags What are RFID tags?RFID stands for Radio Frequency Identification, also known as electronic tags.An RFID system consists of a tag, a reader and an integrated middleware system. Radio frequency identification is a contactless automated identification technology which can automatically identify target objects and obtain relevant data through radio-frequency signals in any severe conditions without human intervention.The RFID technology is able to identify objects moving at high speed and multiple objects at the same time with rapid and convenient operation. Applications of RFID tagsMedical treatment, personal applications, traffic, entertainment, logistics, manufacturing, security, environment/other applications. Adhesives for bonding of RFID tags Hot-melt pressure sensitive adhesives are used during the process that RFID chips are manufactured into identification tags or fare cards. In the past, twin adhesive tapes were adopted and the cost was higher.The hot-melt pressure sensitive adhesives are gradually replacing the tapes in current product lines since such adhesives have excellent adhesion and adequate heat resistance and are applicable for the bonding of RFID tags to common plastic materials.7 features of hot-melt pressure sensitive adhesives for RFID tagsFeatureDescriptionHigh hardnessAfter being coating with the adhesives, plug-in or contact cards show higher levels of hardness.Long-time useDirect bonding after applying the adhesives without thermal activation during the manufacturing process.Outstanding adhesionExcellent adhesion to paper or PP materials.Good heat resistanceShear adhesion failure temperature (SAFT) is 76℃.High temperature and humidity resistanceOur hot-melt adhesives can still firmly bond a paper card and a RFID chip together after being tested under a high temperature and humidity condition for three days.Excellent water resistanceWithout detachment after paper cards are soaked for a day.Good low temperature resistanceWithout detachment of bonded paper cards under -40℃.Unique features of our hot-melt pressure sensitive adhesives for RFID tagsFeatureDescriptionAdvantagesWell-oil-tight paper base materialsPaper base materials do not have oil leakage problems after being strictly tested at 60℃ for 7 days.

Warm Aqueous Alkaline Removable Adhesive for Recycling and Labeling Promotes Recycling Efficiency!

Warm Aqueous Alkaline Removable Adhesive for Recycling and Labeling Promotes Recycling Efficiency!

Warm Aqueous Alkaline Removable Adhesive for Recycling and Labeling Promotes Recycling Efficiency!Worldwide, 20,000 PET bottles are sold every second!Scientists estimate that by 2021, the number of PET bottles discarded by people will reach 500 billion each year, far exceeding the number that is recycled. Environmental groups say such data is devastating for the environment, because plastic pollution has affected every ecosystem, and more and more living things will be affected, rivaling climate change in severity.Less plastic bottles are recycled, and there will be more plastic in the ocean than fishWhere do the used PET bottles go?It is estimated from the recycled weight that Taiwan's PET bottles are used up to 4.7 billion per year. After deducting the amount of recycling, it is equal to 188 million PET bottles per year.Most of the bottlings actually end up in landfills, as well as our oceans. Around 5 million to 13 million tons of plastic enter the oceans every year, where it is eaten by seabirds, fish and other creatures.The distance between recycling and environmental protection may be farther than you thinkPlastic recycling needs to be shred, washed, melted and then remade to be successfully recycledPET bottles are generally accompanied by various labels and label glue for fixingIf the product label on the plastic bottle is not completely removed during cleaningThe efficiency of resource reuse will be reducedTherefore, the choice of glue for sticking labels is very critical at this time!![Sorting]→[Bundling]→[Shredding]→[Washing]→[Melting]→[Recycle] What can we do about PET bottle recycling/label recycling?The best way to promote more efficient recycling of PET bottles is to use warm aqueous alkaline removable adhesive instead of general labeling glues in the production process.As an adhesive expert, TexYear developed the warm aqueous alkaline removable adhesiveThe label can be effectively pasted without falling off. When washing, it only needs to pass the international standard for de-labeling of alkaline water.Warm aqueous alkaline removable adhesive, label glue that promotes recycling efficiency!Warm aqueous alkaline removable adhesive instead of general label glue has many benefitsFor producers, it can quickly increase the value of the productFor consumers, choosing to buy green plastic products can simply practice sustainable developmentLet's do our part for a sustainable ecology together!0:00 - Brief Introduction of Recycling 0:33 - Why Removing Labels Matters 0:54 - Tex Year Can Help1:19 - Warm Aqueous Alkaline Removable Adhesive2:15 - The Outcome of ExperimentsTexYear Group is committed to environmental protection management, and actively invests capital and human resource in research and development.

Using recyclable glue on beer manufacturing, contributing to a sustainable ecology!

Using recyclable glue on beer manufacturing, contributing to a sustainable ecology!

Using recyclable glue on beer manufacturing, contributing to a sustainable ecology!In the hot summer, having a glass of cold beer is one of life's great pleasures.Do you know that the plastic wrap of beer cans turns out to be a killer of marine life?Compared with other beverages, the packaging of beer is more environmental friendly. Only one plastic ring can put several cans of beer together for customers to take. However, the plastic film of beer packaging cannot be recycled and is light and thin. If it is rushed into the sea, it could become the hidden murderous intent in the sea, causing sea turtles, dolphins, and seabirds to be unable to eat, starving to death because their stomachs are stuffed with plastic.How important is the reduction of plastic packaging!As a packaging material, plastic has the advantages of lightness, thinness and low cost. Many commodity packagings contain plastic components. However, plastic cannot be completely decomposed in a short period of time, and it is easy to pollute the land, ocean, and even the air during the decomposition process. According to United Nations statistics, about 8 million tons of plastic waste enters the ocean every year, and these wastes eventually turn into plastic particles, which enter the human body through the food chain can endanger health. In recent years, consumers have finally realized that plastic reduction not only protects the earth's ecology, but also protects the safety of food, air and drinking water. In daily consumption, the concept of plastic reduction is gradually being taken into consideration in purchasing.The plastic-reduction beer packagingA well-know beer brand released a new type of packaging in 2018, which uses recyclable glue to fasten beer cans together, and small pieces of plastic handles to replace the traditional shrink film packaging of beer, claiming to be able to reduce plastic by 76%. The concept is to use the joints between the beer cans to apply hot melt adhesive between the cans to fix them, and only add a plastic handle outside the six-can package to achieve the purpose of reducing plastic. It is currently available in the UK and Norway markets. The design of plastic-reduction packaging can save the equivalent of 60 million plastic bags a year, and has the opportunity to reduce plastic by 1,200 tons per year.Recyclable adhesive replaces plasticAdhesives cannot damage the printing on the can, cannot affect the quality of beer, and must be able to withstand extreme refrigerated temperatures between storage, transportation, consumer end, and withstand the temperature changes of high sunlight exposure during shipping. Consumers can easily separate the two beer cans, and the residual glue on the beer cans will not stick.Finally, the glue residue on the beer can can be easily removed from the aluminum can for recycling purposes, and the glue can be recycled along with the beer aluminum can.TEX TEAR provides a large range of Sustainable & Compostable Adhesives. Packaging to reduce plasticAt present, only the famous beer brand uses such plastic-reduced packaging. It was developed by a century-old German company. In addition to beer cans, this plastic reduction packaging technology can also be applied to the packaging of PET mineral water rooms. In order to enable the entire industry to achieve the goal of plastic reduction, it will share the new technology with the industry.In this era of rising environmental awareness, plastic reduction is a trend in the food industry. The green transformation and positioning of major bottled water plants and breweries will be able to attract more consumers. Therefore, food manufacturers must think about how to use more environmental friendly products way of producing goods.In the application of plastic reduction in packaging, Tex Year has a record of cooperation with customers in recyclable glue and packaging hot melt adhesives.

Tex Year GPS (Green Platform Strategy) – 4 Platforms, Products and Certificates

Tex Year GPS (Green Platform Strategy) – 4 Platforms, Products and Certificates

Tex Year GPS (Green Platform Strategy) – 4 Platforms, Products and CertificatesTex Year GPS (Green Platform Strategy) is a strategy and also a platform. It is a strategy for our company's new product development direction in the next five to ten years; it is also a platform for our upstream suppliers, partners, and downstream customers to collaborate in green industries. On this platform, everyone has a common goal, which is to develop sustainably.The vision direction of Tex Year are green, safe and healthy. At the same time, our company has been focusing on the development of green products for more than 40 years. Until today, and with the trend of the world industry, it has proposed various material solutions for carbon reduction, including biomass, renewable low-carbon materials. Using the methodology of circular economy to improve life cycle benefits and assist customer products to provide low-carbon solutions in the design of product recycling, reuse, and material reduction.In 2021, a green material strategic cooperation platform will be integrated. There are four main development scopes, including the bio-economy platform, the circular economy platform, the low-carbon economy platform, and the green economy platform inherited by Tex Year.[Green Economy Platform]The green economy platform is launched by green, safe and healthy. As long as the product development under this theme can be listed as the development direction of the green economy platform, such as: solvent-free water-based adhesive and hot melt adhesive, reduce health hazards and environmental protection impact; another example is the halogen-free flame-resistant hot melt adhesive, which not only increases the safety of the customer's products, but also reduces the final disposal of the product. A healthier manufacturing environment for the operator.[Low-Carbon Economy Platform]The low-carbon economy platform is the most important sustainable demand recently. The concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is directly linked to the global temperature and has a huge impact on climate change. Therefore, carbon reduction is the general trend, and the goals of various countries are also announced in these two years. They have successively proposed, and in turn, major global brands have also formulated their carbon reduction strategies and acted as pioneers in carbon reduction. Tex Year is no exception, the projects on the low-carbon economy platform list solutions that directly provide low-carbon: including lower energy It can also replace the adhesive tape, reduce the use of resources, and assist customers to achieve low-carbon industry 4.0 lights-out factories; low-temperature operation of hot-melt adhesives can reduce energy consumption when customers use it; there are also low-carbon bio-based hot melt adhesives, providing customers with products with a lower carbon footprint.[Circular Economy Platform]Circular economy platform, the simplest appeal is to assist customers in the design of products that can be reused in the life cycle of their products, or the materials of their products can be recycled and reused, or the design of reducing the use of product materials. In order to realize the value experience of customers, the research and development of materials in Tex Year has three important directions. First, it is easy to disassemble: mainly to assist customers after pasting and assembling, if they need to be recycled or reused, they can use different processes, allow customers to easily disassemble product components. For example, when recycling plastic containers, Tex Year provides clean recycling hot melt adhesives, or provides mechanically disassembling UV adhesives when laminating electronic components. Secondly, homogeneous recycling: mainly to assist customers when recycling its product materials, it does not need to be disassembled; and at the same time, it is recycled with its materials. For example, in the use of mattresses, hot melt adhesives of the same material as non-woven fabrics are provided. Third, reducing the amount of material used, whether it is to reduce the density of the product and provide the same viscosity, can reduce the amount of adhesive used by customers, such as providing the same viscosity. A low-density PO-based hot melt adhesive.[Bio-Economy Platform]The bio-economy platform has two important research and development directions, one is biodegradation and the other is bio-based. The main appeal of biodegradation is to reduce plastics, reduce petrochemical products, and reduce the conversion of underground carbon into carbon dioxide and release it into the atmosphere; the main appeal of bio-based is to provide renewable material resources and directly reduce carbon emissions. In order to win the trust of customers, Tex Year sent biodegradable and bio-based hot melt adhesives to the third certification unit for testing, and obtained the German DIN compostable and bio-based marks as follows: compostable mark, 20%~50%, 50% %~85%, more than 85% bio-based label. In fact, after testing, our hot melt adhesives have bio-based content as high as 68% and 92%. It can provide lower carbon hot melt adhesives for customers to use.The above is the strategic directions of Tex Year in the development of new products led by GPS, as well as the cooperation platform provided to our upstream suppliers and downstream customers to jointly complete high-value projects and products in response to the general trend in green, sustainable development and solutions. Tex Year and all the strategic partners of GPS, we will benefit from this and sail to the new blue ocean together.

Pallet stacking glue, pallet anti-slip glue. Reduce the use of disposable plastic pallet film PE stretch film in logistics and warehousing, and reduce plastic together!During the production and transportation of many commodities, PE stretch film has been widely used in the pallet stacking process to ensure the safety and stability of the commodities during storage and transportation. However, the plastic stretch film used to cause the consumption of a large amount of disposable plastic.Logistics and warehousing reduce the use of single-use plastics. Why do we need to reduce plastics?An estimated 8 million tons of plastic end up in the ocean every year, mostly plastic packaging. The vast majority of plastic packaging is single-use and is discarded after a short period of use and becomes garbage.More than 100,000 marine creatures die each year due to entanglements in plastic waste. For every ten species affected by marine debris, more than one is at risk of extinction. What we should do is trying our best to reduce the amount of plastic waste flowing into the natural environment and start changing our lives.With the global trend of carbon reduction and the continuous improvement of regulations banning disposable plastics, and the production of plastics will continue to increase carbon emissions, it is urgent to deal with the rising global temperature year by year, and we need you and me to take action to change our lives.
