It all starts with the core winding

Tissue and towel manufacturing demands precision and reliability at every stage of production. From everyday essentials like toilet paper to indispensable kitchen rolls, the success of these products starts at the core—literally. 

Core winding, the process of forming the rigid tube around which tissue paper is wound, is a critical step in production to hold it all together! Choosing the right adhesive solution ensures maximum operational efficiency, reduces waste, ensures safe handling and enhances the consumer experience by ensuring products are durable, easy to use, and sustainable.

AQUENCE CORE E8490 is a cutting-edge adhesive solution engineered specifically for core winding, ensuring strong, durable bonding for tissue rolls of all types. Whether for single-ply or multi-ply cores, our innovation delivers unmatched performance, helping manufacturers achieve faster production speeds, superior adhesion, and consistent results aligned with your sustainability goals.
