Henkel Technomelt Supra PRO 301 Plus adhesive solution

Henkel Adhesive Technologies has developed the Technomelt Supra PRO 301 Plus hot melt adhesive especially for high-speed machines for pharmaceutical packaging.

As the demand for pharmaceuticals increases, so does the demand for pharmaceutical packaging. This requires adhesives that work well even at high processing speeds. Conventional hot melts with cure times of 0.5 seconds or more are not suitable. In addition, there is increasing pressure to meet the highest international safety standards, such as EU regulations and FDA guidelines for food and drug compliance, as well as strict hygiene and purity requirements to avoid contamination. The globally available Technomelt Supra PRO 301 Plus is designed to address all these requirements, offering fast curing time of 160 ms and a stringing-free application that requires fewer cleaning interruptions and increased production efficiency.

The adhesive is designed to enable maximum adhesion and quality on a wide range of substrates and is also suitable for deep-freeze applications.

It also allows for a tamper-evident closure of the packaging by creating fibre tear when opening, thereby diminishing the need for additional labels. This results in improved recyclability of the packaging.
