Working together, our team evaluated the entire application—not just the adhesive. By combining HAR's application expertise with ITW Dynatec adhesive application technology, we developed an innovative in-line solution that applies hot melt pressure sensitive adhesive during the tube winding process, before the tube is cut to length.

In manufacturing, the best technology is not always the most expensive technology. More often, it is the technology that delivers the best combination of performance, reliability, serviceability, and total cost of ownership.

When it comes to sealing cartons, cases, and boxes, there’s no one-size-fits-all solution. Today’s packaging world is as diverse as the products it protects, with thousands of variations in board types, coatings, structures, and environmental demands. From corrugated fiberboard to laminated paperboard, chipboard to custom die-cut trays—each material and shape brings its own challenges when it comes to forming and sealing.

When it comes to applying adhesive in a production environment, one of the most important decisions you’ll face is whether to stick with manual methods or invest in an automated or semi-automated system.
