Tissue Hot Melt Adhesives
Gentle hold. Clean bond. Built for softness.
Astro Packaging’s tissue hot melt adhesives are specially formulated to bond delicate paper products like facial tissue, toilet paper, napkins, and paper towels. These adhesives provide light but reliable adhesion that preserves softness, flexibility, and product integrity during converting and packaging.
What Are Tissue Hot Melt Adhesives?
Tissue hot melts are low-tack, fast-setting adhesives designed to bond thin, highly absorbent paper substrates without tearing, staining, or stiffening. Used primarily in hygiene and household paper product manufacturing, these glues are engineered to apply cleanly, hold consistently, and run at high speeds — without compromising the end-user experience.
Key Benefits of Tissue Hot Melt Adhesives
- Safe, gentle adhesion for delicate substrates
- Fast tack and short set time for high-speed lines
- Low odor and minimal staining
- Excellent thermal stability and clean running
- Ideal for light bonding and soft roll handling
- Compatible with slot, spray, or wheel applicators
Common Applications for Tissue Hot Melt Adhesives
Tissue hot melts are used across paper converting lines for personal care, hospitality, and household goods.
Common applications include:
- Toilet tissue roll tail sealing
- Facial tissue folding and stacking
- Napkin converting and interleaving
- Kitchen towel winding
- Soft roll packaging and securement
- Point-of-sale display assembly for paper products
Choosing the Right Tissue Adhesive
With lightweight, porous materials, the wrong adhesive can cause tearing, residue, or product rejection.
We help you select the right formula by evaluating:
- Absorbency and weight of the tissue
- Required tack level and dry time
- Desired softness and finished feel
- Application method and equipment type
- Line speed, temperature, and production volume
Looking to reduce adhesive visibility or improve tail seal strength? We’ll dial in the right solution.
