UPM Raflatac unveils new RP670 high-tack adhesive

Home and personal care packaging pose many challenges for label manufacturers including containers of different shapes, sizes and materials. In addition, the need to design more sustainable packaging often leads to lighter weight containers, as well as increases amounts of post-consumer recycled (PCR) content. For example, containers having PCR as raw material may pose uneven surfaces to label making it harder to adhere the label reliably during dispensing.

UPM Raflatac’s high-tack RP670 adhesive has been developed especially to meet the needs for adhesion in rough and demanding surfaces which may cause challenges to standard multipurpose label materials. It helps to prevent issues like darting, tunneling, wrinkling, bubbles, and edge lift, protecting the brand image for the lifetime of the product.

RP670 adhesive is suitable for HDPE, PP, PET, glass and metal packaging.
