Adhesive Development – ADHESIVE EXPERTS by GLUETEC
IN-HOUSE RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT
FOR INDUSTRIAL ADHESIVES
With the courage to break new ground, GLUETEC develops and manufactures its own high-performance formulations for demanding applications in industry, trade, and commerce. As ADHESIVE EXPERTS, we combine many years of experience in adhesive and sealant technology with modern research, application engineering, and a clear understanding of industrial processes.
Our in-house research and development department at our German facility forms the foundation for innovative product concepts, customized formulations, and tailor-made solutions based on customer requirements. Many of our in-house developments have already been filed for patents—a testament to GLUETEC’s high standards of innovation. We take a holistic approach to adhesives: material, application, processing, packaging, labeling, occupational safety, and scalability must all work together optimally.
Custom Formulations for Special Requirements
Every adhesive application has its own specific requirements in terms of strength, viscosity, temperature resistance, pot life, curing, adhesion, and process reliability. GLUETEC analyzes these requirements together with the customer and develops suitable products based on them—ranging from the optimization of existing formulations to the development of entirely new ones.
GLUETEC also finds or develops the right adhesive for specialized niche applications, demanding custom solutions, and highly specialized markets. Where standard products reach their limits, our strengths come into play: chemical expertise, technical consulting, and practical development—all from a single source.
From an idea to a production-ready solution
As a full-service provider, GLUETEC supports customers throughout the entire value chain. Our expertise doesn’t stop at formulation. It also includes selecting suitable packaging, tailoring solutions to application processes, and implementing private-label, contract filling, and mass-production solutions.
This results in products that are technically, economically, and regulatory tailored to the specific application. Especially in the B2B environment, it’s not just about adhesion—what matters most is that the adhesive can be processed safely, fits into existing processes, and strengthens the customer’s position in the market.
Our Key Areas of Development
Polyurethanes by GLUETEC
GLUETEC develops its own polyurethane adhesives for industrial applications. The focus is on customizable properties such as viscosity, Shore hardness, assembly strength, working time, and adhesion to various substrates.
User-Friendly Line by GLUETEC
With its User-friendly Line, GLUETEC brings together products that are particularly user-friendly. The goal is to offer high-performance alternatives with reduced risk potential, optimized labeling, and high practicality.
Application Technology by GLUETEC
Application engineering bridges the gap between development and industrial practice. GLUETEC provides support for substrate testing, adhesive testing, process evaluations, and the selection of suitable products for specific applications.
Working Together to Develop the Right Solution
Whether it’s mass production, maintenance, repair, private label, or custom solutions—GLUETEC develops products that meet technical requirements and enable safe, efficient processing.
