Aerosol Packaging Adhesives

Aerosol adhesives offer a wide range of performance and application characteristics. Most 3M aerosol adhesives also have a controlled spray pattern to help minimize overspray, clean up and unused adhesive. These adhesives contain no methylene chloride, chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), or 1,1,1-trichlorethane (methyl chloroform).

ATG VHB Packaging Adhesives

VHB
3M™ VHB™ Tapes reliably bond metals, plastics & glass eliminating drilling and unsightly fasteners to enable creation of new material combinations and high impact visual designs.

ATG
Bond more than 350 substrate combinations with a quick, neat strip of pressure sensitive adhesive. Flexible to minus 60 degrees F. Use to seal pocket in folders, bond matte board in picture frames, splice paper, films and foils, and for general purpose bindery attaching.

Hot Melt Packaging Adhesives

Hot Melt adhesives are 100% solids thermoplastic resins that become fluid when heated and quickly wet the bonding surface. They cool, harden and reach bond strength in seconds. Assemblies can be moved immediately to keep production flowing.

Instant Packaging Adhesives

For speed and performance, you will likely find a product in this line with precisely the right combination of bond strength, cure time and viscosity.

Structural Packaging Adhesives

Load-bearing formulations for 3M structural adhesives bonds often as strong as, or stronger than the materials joined.

Non Structural Packaging Adhesives

3M non-structural adhesive products typically bond non-load 3M non-structural adhesive products typically bond non-load bearing components such as veneer and gasketing. Continuous contact between mating surfaces effectively bonds and seals.
