Turbo-Seal® water based coldseal coatings are based on 100% synthetic polymers or blends of natural rubber latex and synthetic polymers to create a wide variety of cold seals for many food and medical flexible packaging applications. Food applications include candy, bakery, cookie, ice cream bar, nutraceuticals and other specialty snacks. Medical applications include bandage wrap and a variety of disposable medical devices. Features of Turbo-Seal® include better machining, superior adhesion and cohesion to select papers and films, plus lower unwind strengths for more consistent packaging performance.
Flexible Packaging Applications
Confectionary Packaging
Turbo-Seal® water based coldseal coatings are designed for use when one is packaging temperature sensitive products at high speeds such as chocolate bars, cereal bars or other food products. The adhesive is applied in register with the printing press to allow for minimal adhesive use and the most economical package. As these are cohesive systems, bonding is immediate as soon as the two sides are brought togehter in contact.
AquaGrip Reseal Adhesives
Aquagrip® reseal coatings are tailor-made water based acrylic polymers intended for customized, resealable packaging applications. Aquagrip® reseal products offer good machining, low foaming and good coatability on press, superior clarity and excellent cohesion for many flexible food packaging applications requiring FDA-certified products.
Snack Food Packaging
Turbo-Seal® water based coldseal coatings are based on 100% synthetic polymers or blends of natural rubber latex with enhanced synthetic polymers to create a wide variety of coldseal products for many flexible candy packaging applications including full size and mini size bar wraps as well as multi-bar over wraps. We also provide Herberts laminating adhesives for film to film and film to foil laminating.
Flexible Packaging Laminating Adhesives
HERBERTS Solvent based and Solvent-less adhesives are used in a variety of food packaging and medical packaging applications. We can produce one-component, 100% solids systems that can run at very high line speeds for general and medium purpose applications. We have the best products for high temperature resistance and sterilizable packaging.
Meat and Cheese Packaging
HERBERTS Solvent based and Solvent-less adhesives are used to bond a variety of high slip films to sealant layers. They are designed to provide excellent adhesion with minimal impact to the packaging material or product being packaged.
Heat Seal Coatings for Lid Stock
A combination of technologies including hot melt systems based on polymers such as EVA for yogurt wrapping, heat seal lidding materials under the TEE trade name and solvent borne lacquers fir dairy lidding under the HSL name. We also produce Vitel Copolyester Resins suitable for extrusion coating, coextrusion or solvent cast heat seal coatings on PET film.
Chemically Resistant Packaging
Bostik produces adhesives for relatively simple chemical resistance such as our casein-based adhesives for paper to foil margarine wraps. We also a produce highly crosslinked systems to provide aggressive chemical resistance. For agricultural, chemical or agressive ingrediant food packaging.
Coatings, Lacquers and Ink Binders
Our Vitel Copolyester Resins find use in formulating coatings with specific adhesion to oriented PET films, treated polyolefin films and a variety of vinyl substrates. They are used to produce transfer print labels and coatings.
Medical Packaging
Turbo-Seal® water based coldseal coatings are based on 100% synthetic polymers or blends of natural rubber latex with enhanced synthetic polymers to create a wide variety of coldseal products for many medical flexible packaging applications including sterilizable and non-sterilizable bandages and a variety of medical devices. Features include excellent sealability for high-speed wrappers and good aging performance. Cold seals are can be tailored for surface printed-paper or for combinations with PE, OPP and PET films and papers. Bostik also Produces HERBERTS laminating adhesives for film/film and film foil sterilizable laminates.
