Plant managers work hard to keep case and carton sealing production lines running efficiently. But when corrugated boxes pop open, the result can be downtime and quality issues. Fortunately, there’s a solution: Bostik’s proprietary high-performance Kizen® adhesive technology.

Smoother production line operations. The bonding you expect. Minimal pop-opens. With Kizen® adhesive technology from Bostik, you can achieve all three and more from high-performance hot-melt adhesives for packaging applications including case and carton sealing.

How Do Kizen® Adhesives Reduce Pop-Open Likelihood

Designed to bond to difficult substrates, Kizen case and carton sealing adhesives sufficiently wet out even on highly recycled materials. This enables brand owners to provide consumers with breakthrough recyclable or compostable packaging for food, beverage, personal care, medical, or pharmaceutical products.

The powerful combination of high-performance bonds and fast set speeds also allows Kizen adhesives to properly adhere to boxes without slowing down production lines. Further, by reducing pop-opens, plants are able to decrease downtime and more easily meet both quality and quantity requirements.

How Do Kizen Adhesives Further Enhance Production Lines?

In addition to reducing pop-opens, Kizen case and carton sealing adhesives support operational efficiencies by making it easier for your plant to run seamlessly in four more ways:

  1. Reduced equipment issues: Kizen’s excellent thermal stability significantly reduce char and nozzle clogging.
  2. Decreased SKU volume: Because Kizen can be applied across production lines, only one adhesive product is needed. This simplifies production line logistics.
  3. Reduced adhesive consumption: Additionally, Kizen enables less product to be used, keeping lines running faster for longer and more efficiently.

How Do You Start Making Your Plant Run More Smoothly?

Switching to Kizen adhesives is easy. There may be no need to shut down your production line to make the switch because Kizen can work seamlessly over certain existing adhesives in the system.1

Additionally, Bostik’s knowledgeable experts work directly with your plants throughout the trial process, conducting audits to identify further opportunities and benchmark progress. Instead of having to worry about items such as proper temperature settings yourself, Bostik experts will handle it for you.

Make your case and carton lines worry-free. Bostik’s proprietary high-performance hot-melt adhesive technology delivers comfort, environmental advantages, and operational efficiencies to you and your product packaging.
