Bio-Based Hot Melt Adhesives

Packsize and Henkel Adhesive Technologies are introducing Eco-Pax, a new solution for packaging providers looking to reduce their carbon footprint without compromising performance. Eco-Pax stands out for its formulation, which utilizes biobased raw materials, marking a significant shift from traditional petroleum-derived components.

By incorporating renewable ingredients, the brand is able to lower the carbon footprint associated with standard packaging by reducing reliance on conventional, fossil-based hot melt adhesives traditionally used for box sealing.

“Partnering with an innovative leader like Packsize to launch a biobased adhesive solution is a big step towards building a more sustainable packaging value chain. Together, we’re setting a new standard for sustainability in packaging while delivering the high performance brands and consumers trust,” said Henkel North America Consumer Goods Adhesives and Business Development head Kevin Heffernan.
