Polypropylene Hot Melt Glues
Sticks to what others slide off.
Astro Packaging’s polypropylene (PP) hot melt glues are specially formulated to bond to low-surface-energy materials like BOPP films and rigid PP packaging. These adhesives solve one of the biggest challenges in packaging: getting a reliable bond on slippery, non-porous plastic surfaces.
What Are Polypropylene Hot Melt Glues?
Polypropylene hot melt glues are high-performance adhesives designed for bonding polypropylene — a notoriously hard-to-stick plastic used in flexible packaging, film wraps, and molded containers. These hot melts offer improved wet-out and anchoring to BOPP, rigid PP, and other polyolefins, making them ideal for high-speed packaging lines and specialty sealing applications.
Key Benefits of Polypropylene Hot Melt Glues
- Strong adhesion to BOPP, rigid PP, and other polyolefins
- Resists lifting, peeling, or delamination
- Performs well on non-porous and treated surfaces
- Fast setting for automated production lines
- Excellent heat resistance and clean application
- Compatible with nozzle, extrusion, and roller systems
Common Applications for Polypropylene Hot Melt Glues
These adhesives are used across consumer goods, food packaging, and specialty manufacturing where polypropylene is a primary substrate:
- Snack food bags and wrappers with BOPP film
- Rigid polypropylene containers or lids
- Flexible film pouches and roll-stock packaging
- Tamper-evident and promotional seals
- Poly-coated folding cartons
- Specialty labeling and film-to-film bonding
Choosing the Right Polypropylene Adhesive
Not all poly materials are created equal — which is why we help you evaluate:
- Type of polypropylene – rigid, flexible, treated, or coated
- Bonding surface — slick, textured, or printed
- Glue laydown method and line speed
- Temperature and environmental stress
- End-use handling (peel strength, tamper resistance, etc.)
Whether you’re bonding film to film or plastic to board, our adhesives are made to stick where others can’t.
