Performance under pressure
Pressure sensitive tapes and labels are all around us. On beverage containers and personal care products. Over-the-counter medication bottles and the corrugated boxes that shipped them to the store. The wide range of applications and the many different materials the tapes and labels adhere to demand adhesives with specific performance requirements throughout production and end-use. Efficient coating. Faster line speeds. Improved optics. Environmental considerations. That’s where Dow pressure sensitive adhesives come in.
