Key Benefits of the ThermoTack™ BG100

The ThermoTack™ BG100 is a high-performance EVA hot melt adhesive formulated to bond twisted or flat handles to handle patches in paper bag manufacturing. Its excellent bonding strength makes it an ideal choice for creating durable, functional paper bag handles.

Superior Bond Strength

ThermoTack™ BG100 offers outstanding penetration into a variety of paper fibers, including kraft and bleached paper that is virgin or recycled, ensuring secure attachment between the paper rope or flat handle and the reinforcement patch. This reliability is essential for maintaining consumer satisfaction and protecting brand reputation.

Fast Setting Time

Efficiency and speed are key in paper bag production. ThermoTack™ BG100 sets rapidly, with an aggressive hot tack that allows for speeding up assembly and production cycles and reducing costs per bag.

Excellent Thermal Stability

Many hot melt adhesives can degrade when left in a heated pot for extended periods. This can result in burning, charring, or gelling, which can can clog nozzles and halt production. The ThermoTack™ BG100 is designed for extended thermal stability to maximize uptime.

Machinability

Adhesives with the wrong viscosity and rheology can cause stringing or webbing. This results in adhesives getting in places they shouldn’t be, which can cause scrap when bags stick together, and downtime when adhesives have to be scraped off of equipment. The ThermoTack™ BG 100 extrudes cleanly without stringing or splattering. Saving time on cleanup and rework.
