In today’s industry, sustainability has become a necessity. One aspect of sustainability is promoting a circular economy, where materials can be reused and recycled at the end of their life. But what about the adhesives that bond these materials together? 

Thermoset adhesives can often represent a challenge for recycling as the material is fixed after the activation. Here at Bemis-Protechnic we offer thermoplastic adhesive solutions that are tailored to match the composition of your substrates. That approach allows easier streamlined recycling at the end of your product’s life cycle.

What is a Thermoplastic Adhesive Film?

Thermoplastic adhesive film, commonly known as hotmelt adhesive film, is typically presented in the form of a roll. This adhesive solution can be manufactured using different techniques, resulting in either monolayer or multi-layer structures. 

  • Monolayer Thermoplastic Adhesive Film: This film consists of a single layer of adhesive material. 
  • Multi-layer Thermoplastic Adhesive Film: This film combines up to 5 layers coextruded into a single film.  

Examples include: 

  • 3-layer ABA films (Adhesive+Barrier+Adhesive)  
  • 2-layer AB films (Adhesive+Barrier) or 2-layer AA films (Adhesive+Adhesive)
