Solutions for Labels (Pressure Sensitive Adhesives)

At BTC Europe we provide a wide range of raw materials for pressure-sensitive adhesives. Our water-based polymer dispersions and UV-curable acrylic hotmelts as well as our additives offer excellent solutions for producing high-quality self-adhesive products such as labels, films and tapes. Additionally, we offer coater-ready (CR) solutions for the most important coater technologies. Together with our customers, we are developing today the solutions for tomorrow. BASF is constantly developing and introducing new products in accordance with current market requirements. If you need sophisticated pressure-sensitive adhesives (PSA), we not only support you with state-of-the-art raw materials but also with regulatory expertise and consistently high standards in terms of reliability and safety, gained from many years of experience. Adhesives need to meet an ever-expanding range of requirements, which constantly leads to new challenges for the adhesive industry. By continuously improving the performance of our adhesive raw materials, we open up new fields of application for our customers.

Labels We offer a wide range of acrylic polymer dispersions and UV curable acrylic hotmelts, which are used in the production of PSA for both paper and filmic labels. The consistent quality of our Acronal® dispersions as well as their high mechanical stability allow our customers to keep their production constant, minimizing adhesive-related production downtimes. Adequate cohesion at high adhesion levels provides a trouble-free converting process. BASF develops products using the know-how of our dedicated R&D resources as well as our team of coating experts, constantly looking for ways to improve the coating technology. Gravure and curtain coating heads for general purpose permanent (GPP) or Alltemp Labels, a slot die for UV-curable acrylic hotmelts are just some examples of the different options we can offer our customers for trials simulating realistic production conditions. Whether you produce high-end clear filmic labels or standard white labels, our products are the right choice. Excellent transparency is achieved up to a coating speed of 600m/min.
