    Paper solutions

    Paper converting solutions require precision and consistency. Too much adhesive creates manufacturing issues and too little adhesive causes end-use performance issues. Henkel’s water-based or hot melt adhesives are easy to apply and offer flexible bonding options for bags, envelopes, cartons, bookbinding, and graphic arts.
