Avery Dennison has introduced a hybrid adhesive for durable goods labelling. S8039, available through the Mix & Match service, allows customers to choose from a wide range of different face materials and release liners, meeting very specific product application needs.
"Until now, converters who wanted custom materials usually had to laminate a chosen facestock material with a high performing adhesive transfer tape," says Marco Fermo, segment director durables, Materials Group, Avery Dennison. "That meant quality challenges, and also additional costs due to more scrap and higher inventory levels.
"The new S8039 hybrid adhesive raises operational efficiency by allowing customers to develop unique product applications far more easily. They now have access to a permanent adhesive with high-end performance in terms of adhesion, heat and chemical resistance. That adhesive can be combined with almost any facestock in the Avery Dennison portfolio, including polyester, vinyl, polypropylene and polyethylene."
Avery Dennison's Mix & Match service allows a free choice of different facestock materials and release liners to best meet customer requirements, and the minimum order quantity is just 500m².
