Most common corrugated box packaging material is made of paper, which is lighter than wood, has sufficient hardness, and is easy to cut the size. But paper corrugated boxes are susceptible to water immersion, humidity, or mildew damages. Packaging material corrugated cardboards have different surface hardness and waterproof treatment designed to provide waterproof and load protections during transport. The level of difficulty for packaging material adhesive also increases due to the protection needs. Therefore, selecting a suitable packaging material hot-melt adhesive is critical.In addition to paper corrugated boxes, PP plastic corrugated boxes are also available on the market. PP plastic corrugated boards (PP corrugated) are made via polypropylene (PP) hot-melt pressing. This recyclable and environmentally friendly plastic material has light weight, high durability, good moisture resistance, and good load capacity compared to that of paper. PP corrugated is also very suitable for packaging agricultural products such as fruits and vegetables to keep them as fresh and nutritious as the moment they were picked. PP polypropylene is a difficult to bond packaging material. General hot-melt adhesive cannot meet the requirements. Tex Year understands the hot-melt adhesive needs for your PP corrugated material bonding process!

Mattress Comfort Determination Indicators: SupportA mattress with good support can produce different support strengths according to the human body curvatures, which is the most important indicator.Fit A good mattress brings a sense of comfortable wrapping-fit.BreathabilityA mattress with poor breathability would become hotter as the user sleeps. The skin cannot breath and can easily develop into various skin diseases.Interference PreventionIf the whole bed vibrates when you turn over, the bed has poor interference prevention and can affect the sleep of your other half. If the other side of the bed does not vibrate when you turn over, it has strong interference prevention.For a mattress to satisfy these four major indicators, multiple layers of materials need to be overlapped and combined. Tex Year's hot-melt adhesive products produce no toxic gases such as benzene or formaldehyde; and are crucial to securely bond the surface fabric, various lining materials, springs, etc. These products can resolve the environmental protection issues in the mattress production process.Tex Year's Hot Melt 合得妙® adhesive used for mattress bonding would not harden the foams, and the bonding effect is uniform and long-lasting over time. It also offers good heat and cold resistance, and smooth operation process without any adhesive drawing. The product can maintain cleanliness for the processing parts and the working environment. The long-lasting bonding as well as the non-toxic, tasteless, and harmless attributes offer a guarantee for consumer health.

Do you know how many procedures required before a perfect book reaches to your hand?They include pre-press content writing, design, editing, plate-making, in-printing, proofreading, color adjustment, and printing as well as post-printing collation, binding, and cutting. The various other background conditions such as printing method, letterpress, screen, lithography, gravure, paper or printed material type, and paper pound selection are also key consideration points for the binding operation.High-pound Paper Binding ChoicesTex Year 718 Series Edge AdhesivePaper selection and binding method are absolutely critical to the perfect appearance presentation of a book. In general, book covers would use higher-pound, harder, and thicker papers such as silk, imported, or pattern papers at between 150 to 250 pounds for appearance reasons. The Tex Year 718 series adhesive for book cover binding is transparent and odorless when hot-melted. It offers good wettability and thermal adhesiveness, and excellent bonding effect for high-pound papers.Special Material Fitting Selection  The publishing industry has introduced numerous innovations in recent years. There are often special film coatings, inks, and gloss treatments designed to provide eye-catching visual effects and transcend the traditional page flipping experience. Materials other than paper such as cloth, wood chips, leather, plastic, etc., are also often used. For these difficult to bond substrates, we recommend Tex Year 321A, which offers high adhesion strength to different substrates and resolves the bonding issues for various types of materials.Internal Page Material Fitting SelectionTex Year 778 Series / Tex Year 759 Series / PUR SeriesMost inner pages for books use economical and light paper such as Dowling paper, molded paper, light-weight coated paper, or recycled paper in response to environmental awareness. Several innate conditions must be considered during paper selection. Among them, factory equipment production speed is a key factor for adhesive selection. Tex Year Economic 778 Series Edge Adhesive has fast curing speed that is perfect for medium and fast production line machines, and is suitable for binding equipment capable of completing 7,000-10,000 books/hour. It is recommended for mass production needs such as textbooks.Behind each perfect book is its complicated production processes. The details are critical. In addition to material selection, production process plan, and supervision by special personnel; the adhesive operation team is also filled with semi-artists who must pay attention down to the last detail. Each member is a specialist in certain aspects of book production, and shuttles through the printing site to provide various book binding solutions. Tex Year is no doubt your best book binding partner.

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. We pay close attention to the development trend of the market and respond to the demands of the customers and end consumers in a timely manner. Low-VOC HMA series products We introduced the Low-VOC HMA series product into the market and control the concentration at every phase from raw material to production to make products with low volatility and VOC residues. In comparison with other products on the market, the frame and seam sealants provided recently for use in air strainers contain less VOCs while keeping the quality unaffected to provide consumers with organic compound products with low odor and volatility.In addition, the low-VOC hot melt adhesives have a wide range of applications in the areas closely related to our daily life, such as sanitary devices, packaging materials, filter materials, tapes, mattresses, filter medias, automobiles, and building materials. Tex Year low-VOC HMA series productsTex Year VOC test devices controlling the quality for our livesTo provide customers with safe products, we adopt VOC test devices to ensure the products provided for the customers can meet their standards.

Plastic floors are more popular in the international market. It is now a new lightweight floor material in renovations and has a wider range of applications.For example, plastic floor tiles are commonly seen in many public buildings. The widely used plastic floors are made from polyurethane and most suitable for laying on outdoor sports grounds.PVC is a kind of plastic. PVC floor is one of the types of plastic floors, but may people call it a plastic floor. PVC floors with adhesive on the back side are very convenient for end users. They only need to tear off the release paper to adhere and assemble the floor. This is very suitable to the fast-paced life nowadays and consumers can do this immediately when they want to.Comparison: Ordinary vs. Adhesive PVC floor tiles  The glues commonly used for PVC floors on the market are classified into three types that are applied in different processes.1. Super glue: This a solvent-based glue containing toluene. It must be applied in ventilation environment and a glue drying process is needed to produce stickiness after volatilization.2. Water-based pressure sensitive adhesive: This is an environment-friendly water-based glue and does not contain toluene. The stickiness is produced when applying pressure and rework is carried out easily. However, immersing in water for a long period of time may damage the stickiness.3. Hot Melt Pressure Sensitive Adhesive: This is an environment-friendly hot melt glue and does not contain toluene. It is waterproof and the stickiness is produced when applying pressure. This is also suitable for DIY construction.Selecting hot melt pressure sensitive adhesive and its effect on PVC floor adhesivesThe PVC floor is comprised of PVC plastics, calcium carbonate, plasticizer and other additives. Environment-friendly plasticizer is added to improve the flexibility of PVC floor tiles and make them softer. However, plasticizer has a physical phenomenon of leakage and moves gradually from the inside to the surface as time goes on. As a result, the glue of the hot melt pressure sensitive adhesive will be solved and its cohesive will be damaged more seriously with time of storage, leading to spilling of the adhesive under heavy pressure and movement of some adhesive when the release paper is torn off.Once the stickiness of the hot melt pressure sensitive adhesive becomes worse, the angle may lift when it is stuck on. Hence, selecting the correct adhesive is one of the key elements for PVC floors.To solve the above-mentioned problem, our R&D personnel develop a hot melt pressure sensitive adhesive with outstanding cohesion and substantially improved property to overcome the loss of stickiness due to leakage of plasticizer and ensure the adhesive of the self-sticking PVC floor remains cohesive and sticky after storage for a long period of time. This is a product that customers can use safely and comfortably.We have had our technical strength and strong R&D team for more than 40 years, and provide targeted development services to meet the requirements of the customer. We specialize in the areas of hot melt pressure sensitive adhesive for PVC floor tiles, UV matte coating materials, and other adhesive application requirements.With our strength of solution, we help Top 100 companies implement their production processes and meet their production requirements for PVC floor tile adhesive and surface scratch and wear resistant UV matte coating materials.

In the nineteenth century, rubber was the main component of adhesives. In modern times, various polymers are widely used to make glue. Talking about the adhesive within tapes, it is the key component of the tape responsible for bonding. Different adhesive formulations are used depending on the application requirements. Common adhesive types include:Acrylic Adhesive:Offering good adhesion to a variety of surfaces, excellent temperature resistance, and durability. They are versatile and widely used in many applications. Acrylic adhesives are available as water-based or solvent-based adhesives:Water-based Acrylic Adhesives:This type is also called emulsion acrylic adhesives. They have polymeric compounds dispersed in water and surrounded by a surfactant. Surfactant lowers the surface energy of the acrylic polymer, increasing the wettability of the surface to be bonded. Water-based acrylics are inexpensive compared to their solvent-based counterpart. However, being water-based, these adhesives are less resistant to moisture and heat.Solvent-Based Acrylic Adhesive:Using a solvent carrier to deliver the adhesive properties. They offer high initial tack, good bonding strength, and can be used for various applications.Rubber-Based Adhesive:Providing excellent initial tack and flexibility. They are often used in applications that require instant adhesion and conformability.Silicone Adhesive:Being known for their high-temperature resistance, low tackiness, and ability to adhere to difficult surfaces, such as silicone substrates.Hot Melt Adhesive:Being solid at room temperature but melt and flow when heated.

Here are some common backing materials:Paper:One of the most basic and widely used materials for adhesive tapes. It is economical and suitable for applications like masking, painting, and packaging. It can be plain paper or crepe paper, which is used for masking tapes.Polyester (PET):Strong and durable, they have good resistance to chemicals and high temperatures, making them suitable for demanding applications such as electrical insulation and automotive.Foam:Have a foam-based backing material, such as polyethylene foam or PVC foam. These tapes are used for applications where cushioning, sealing, or mounting is needed, such as weatherstripping and mounting of mirrors or signs.Film:Use materials like polyvinyl chloride (PVC) or polypropylene film as the carrier. These tapes are transparent, flexible, and used for applications like packaging, splicing, and laminating.The choice of backing material depends on the specific requirements of the application. For example, if you need a tape that can withstand high temperatures, you might choose a PET-backed tape. If flexibility and conformability are essential, a fabric or foam-backed tape might be more suitable.Tape Manufacturing Process(Film blowing → Gluing → Rewinding)After the film is blown, the film is applied to the coating machine to add hot melt glue, water glue or other adhesives. In this process, the adhesive is selected according to the required viscosity and purpose of the tape. After the application is completed, the tape is ready!Film blowing → Gluing → RewindingTape manufacturing processPopular Types of Adhesive TapesDestructive Tape/Adhesive for Sealing TapeProvide all kinds of adhesives for express bag sealing and packaging sealing, which can quickly produce adhesive force.

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.

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.
