Packaging adhesives to meet the e-commerce challenge
Packaging adhesives is a multi-million-dollar industry and only getting bigger – projected to grow above GDP through 2025. One reason for the increase? The ongoing rise of e-commerce and its need for more - and more secure - primary and secondary packaging. And e-commerce will continue to fuel growth as consumers switch their purchasing habits to online. That means finding resources for more and better hot melt adhesives (HMAs) to enable more efficient, more dependable, and more sustainable case and carton conversion, packing, and end-use.

In the world of case and carton sealing, choices matter
Why? Because from a cereal package to a boxed beverage to the big shipping box with your online delivery, each involves some application of a hot melt adhesive.
That could create problems, too. Obviously, not all case and cartons are the same. Not all materials making similar case and cartons are the same. Not all manufacturing or storage or delivery conditions are the same. How do you know what adhesive works best?
