Cold Seal Adhesives
Your wrapper must seal fast with no heat. Your heat-sensitive product must stay cool. Tell us the film and the seal you need. We supply the cold seal grade.
Cold seal adhesive (cohesive) sticks only to itself. You coat both faces and dry them. The seal forms when the two dried faces touch under pressure. No heat jaws. Line speeds stay high and heat-sensitive products stay safe.
What we supply
- Natural or synthetic latex. We supply both types. Need to avoid natural latex? Ask for a synthetic latex grade.
- Stock grades. 8209, 8221 and 8223. 8221 is our natural latex grade. Packaged in pails, drums, and totes.
