FUGITIVE HOT MELTS THAT HOLD STRONG, RELEASE CLEANLY, AND KEEP MAILPIECES MOVING WITHOUT DEFECTS.
Most adhesives ship next day so you stay stocked, running, and on schedule.
We show up, run the trial with your team, and fine-tune until performance is locked in.
Every batch meets ISO 9001:2015 standards so you get consistency, compliance, and full traceability.
When fugitive glue fails, the entire job is at risk. Cards fall off, pieces pop open in the mailstream, and adhesive webs across parts or chars in the tank. Every time operators have to stop, clean, and restart, it costs you hours in lost time and thousands in rework.
Capital keeps your lines running with adhesives built for production reliability.
Our fugitive hot melts hold through the feeder, stay clean in the tank, and release without tearing or staining. Each formula is tested for bond strength and machine behavior, then dialed in to your application. Whether you’re running UV-coated stock or plain paper, we make sure the glue works, so your operators can stay focused on output, not cleanup.

Tipping and direct mail jobs can go off track fast if the adhesive isn’t dialed in. Here are the top adhesive issues operators face, and how you can fix them.
Operators often see graphics or copy tear when cards are removed. Our low-tack adhesives release cleanly without damaging uncoated or coated stocks.
Glue can soak through or leave residue on the finished piece. We use low-oil formulas designed to protect print integrity and reduce cleanup.
Mailpieces can detach during handling or jam in the inserter. We match bond strength to the job so pieces stay intact through the mailstream.
Fine glue strands can collect on the gun or nozzle. We adjust viscosity to your line speed to eliminate webbing and reduce stoppages.
An overheated adhesive can break down and create clogs. Our hot melts stay thermally stable across long runs, keeping guns and tanks clean.
Tipping and card affixing jobs often involve more than one substrate. Our fugitive adhesives are tested to bond cleanly, hold as needed, and release without damage on every stock you run.
From porous sheets to glossy coatings, we adjust tack and open time to hold firm without tearing or staining.
Plastic cards stay secure through processing and release cleanly. Our adhesives bond without distorting the card or leaving residue.
This low-dyne plastic can be tricky. We balance bond strength and release to keep it attached without damaging the paper below.
For foil cards or metal inserts, we give you a clean bond with no transfer, tearing, or adhesive left behind.
Whether you’re using electric or pneumatic systems, we match the adhesive to your setup so it flows cleanly, cuts off sharp, and runs without stoppages.
Electric applicators offer precise, consistent dispensing. We provide lower-viscosity adhesives that flow cleanly, prevent stringing, and keep nozzles from gumming up.
Pneumatic systems handle a wider range of adhesives. We match viscosity and open time to give you clean release and reliable flow across shifts.
We’ve tested our fugitive hot melts on the most common glue systems in the industry. Whether you’re tipping, affixing, or folding, we help you get consistent results with the equipment you already run.
Whether you're forming trays or carefully assembling parts, you'll get adhesives engineered to bond at your production pace—fast or slow.
Every batch meets spec, runs the same, and stays clean through the line, so your operators don’t need to tweak settings or troubleshoot mid shift.
When something breaks, we’re there. You get fast answers and real support from people who know your machines and resolve issues quickly.
We don’t guess. We match adhesives to your substrates, machines, and conditions to get a product that runs right the first time, every time.
Products ship from our Midwest plant on time every time. No delays. No scrambling. Just predictable orders that keep your production on schedule.
With formulas designed to run clean on your machines, you skip trial-and-error, avoid jams, and get bonds that hold, no matter what.
Your questions matter. Here are the answers to the most frequently asked questions about tipping & direct mail adhesives.
Yes. We offer low-oil fugitive formulas designed to minimize bleed-through and protect printed graphics from adhesive staining during processing and handling.
Yes. We have high-tack fugitive adhesives engineered to bond securely to low-dyne surfaces like ultraviolet-coated (UV) paper without sacrificing clean release.
Yes. Our ultra low-tack options hold even uncoated stocks securely through the process and release cleanly without tearing fiber or damaging the print.
Our fugitive hot melts are available in 35-pound boxes, 1,120 pounds per pallet, or full truckloads around 30,000 pounds. We match packaging to your volume and run size.
We offer two form factors: small pillows (about 1.5 by 1 inch) and chubs (about 4 by 6 inches). Both are clean-running and easy to load.
We typically send a 10-pound sample box for hot melt trials. That’s enough for a clean evaluation under real production conditions.
Yes. We make lower-viscosity fugitive hot melts that flow cleanly through electric guns and cut off sharply without stringing or clogging.
Our fugitive hot melts have a shelf life of two years from the date of sale when stored in proper conditions.
Most fugitive adhesives ship next day from our ISO-certified facility. We keep common formulas stocked so you stay on schedule without delays.
Yes. We’ll send the sample, join you on-site for the trial, and work with your team until results are locked in. You won’t be left guessing.
