Pressure Sensitive Adhesive, also called, “PSA” or “Self Stick adhesive” is a flexible adhesive that bonds to a variety of substrates when applied to clean and dry surfaces with pressure. Pressure Sensitive adhesive bonds are formed with Pressure – PSA’s Do Not Require solvent, water, or heat to activate the adhesive. The bond strength is directly influenced by the amount of pressure used to apply the adhesive to the surface. PSA’s are a great choice for difficult to bond, low energy substrates.
PSA’s are unique because they do not solidify to form a hard material; PSA’s remain permanently tacky and can “Wet-Out” substrates on contact. The bonds are formed by bringing the PSA adhesive in contact with the substrate and applying pressure to form a bond. PSA’s can be formulated for both – Permanent & Removable bonding Applications.

Padding Adhesive or Padding Glue is a fast drying hot melt or water-based adhesive designed for flexibility and strength. Padding adhesive is designed to give a permanent hold. Our Padding adhesive is Non-toxic and contains No VOC’s.
Padding presses are used to bind loose pieces of paper together with a water-based padding adhesive, this process forms a pad of paper. Stacks of paper are placed in a large vice and are then clamped into place. While in the padding machine, padding glue is applied to the back edge of the paper stack using of a padding brush. Once the bind is dry, the stack of paper is removed and can be cut down to size. Padding presses are widely used by binderies, and many other companies in the bookbinding and graphics arts industry.
Cattie Adhesives manufactures a complete line of Hot Melt Padding Adhesives and Water based Padding Adhesives for many types of Padding applications including Checkbooks, Paper Stationery and Prescription pads.
