Hot Melt Adhesive

At Great Lakes Adhesives, we understand that one size doesn’t fit all when it comes to hot melts. That’s why we offer a comprehensive selection of high-performance hot melt adhesives, including the latest advancements in Metallocene, EVA, PSA, PUR, and Polyamide technologies. Our hot melts are offered in pellet, pillow, chub, pail, and 55 gallon drum form.

• Ethylene Vinyl Acetate (EVA) Hot Melts: A popular and cost-effective option, EVA hot melts provide a strong bond for a wide range of materials. They are known for their fast setting times, flexibility, and good overall adhesion.
• Metallocene Hot Melts: These next-generation hot melts deliver superior performance compared to traditional EVA hot melts. They boast excellent bond strength, high heat resistance, and improved aesthetics for a premium finish.
• Pressure Sensitive Hot Melts: Formulated for permanent or removable bonds, these adhesives excel in labeling, product assembly, and applications requiring flexibility or repositionability.
• Polyamide Hot Melts: Offering exceptional durability and resistance to high temperatures, chemicals, and oils, polyamide hot melts are perfect for demanding applications in the automotive, aerospace, and appliance industries.
• Polyurethane (PUR) Hot Melt:PUR hot melt is an adhesive known for its exceptional strength and durability. It’s used in a wide range of applications, from high-volume manufacturing to home repairs. Unlike traditional glues that simply harden on cooling, PUR undergoes a chemical reaction with moisture in the air. This creates an extremely strong bond (through cross-linking) that gets even stronger over time.

Our team of experts is here to help you navigate the diverse world of hot melt adhesives.  We’ll consider your application requirements, materials, and budget to recommend the perfect hot melt solution for your project.
