Freezer-Grade Hot Melt

ASA-8257M is formulated for the more extreme environment and difficult to bond corrugated substrates. It is a specialized freezer-grade, fast set, hot melt adhesive designed specifically for sealing frozen food cases in the refrigerator, freezer, or blast chiller. Well suited for high-speed packaging and automated assembly, ASA-8257M provides a fast and strong bond to multiple substrates, including cardboard, chipboard, and coated stock.

Freezer packaging, commonly used in the food industry, is frequently wax coated or varnished, making traditional glue sticks challenging to adhere to. ASA-8257M explicitly bonds to these surfaces. The cold resistance and ability to adhere to difficult to bond substrates make this an ideal adhesive solution for frozen food, ice cream, and dessert manufacturers.
