Packaging Adhesives

Arizona Chemical’s rosin esters and terpene phenol resins improve the adhesion of packaging adhesives, especially for recycled materials and high speed packaging systems.

Rosin esters and terpene phenol resins are the industry standard tackifiers for high speed packaging adhesives. Their use in hot melt adhesives improves specific adhesion to surfaces having highly recycled content .

The use of higher levels of recycled content in corrugated board creates a smooth surface which is difficult for adhesives to bond to. By utilizing Arizona Chemical’s rosin ester or terpene phenol chemistries, or a combination of the two, adhesive manufacturers can improve the adhesion of their hot melt to the difficult surfaces, such as highly recycled kraft paper and corrugated board.
