RE702 EVA Hot Melt Adhesive Granules for Paper-Based Packaging, Engineered for

RE702 is an EVA-based hot melt adhesive developed for manufacturers working with paper, cardboard, and other paper-based packaging materials. Rather than being limited to a single packaging component, RE702 is designed for a variety of bonding operations encountered in everyday paper converting and packaging production.

The adhesive can be used for carton closing, tissue box assembly, paper bag production, paper-to-paper bonding, and other general paper packaging applications. It is suitable for bonding commonly used substrates such as kraft paper, cardboard, coated paper, printed paper, and similar paper-based materials, depending on the specific construction and surface characteristics.

During production, the adhesive is applied in a molten state and develops bonding as it cools. This makes it suitable for packaging processes where the bonded material needs to move through subsequent production stages without waiting for conventional drying. For manufacturers operating continuous or automated equipment, this can help simplify the bonding process and maintain a steady production flow.

Making Paper Packaging Production More Flexible

For paper packaging manufacturers, adhesive performance is closely connected with the entire converting process. Different products may require different bonding patterns, from closing a carton and forming a tissue box to joining the seams of a paper bag.

A suitable hot melt adhesive should therefore provide more than basic adhesion. It should also work consistently across different paper structures and allow manufacturers to maintain controlled application during repeated production cycles.

RE702 is developed as a versatile EVA hot melt adhesive for everyday paper and paperboard packaging applications. It can be evaluated for processes such as:

• Carton closing and box sealing

• Tissue box forming and assembly

• Paper bag seam bonding

• Paper-to-paper and paper-to-board bonding

• Folding and forming operations

• General paper packaging assembly

With controlled adhesive application, manufacturers can manage the amount of glue deposited on each bonding area while maintaining adequate coverage. This is particularly useful when production involves large quantities of cartons, tissue boxes, paper bags, or other regularly repeated packaging formats.

RE702 also supports hot melt processing without the need for conventional solvent-based drying. Once the adhesive has been applied and cooled sufficiently, the bonded packaging can proceed to subsequent handling and assembly operations, helping simplify the overall production sequence.

Paper and Paper Packaging Applications

RE702 is formulated for a broad range of paper-based bonding operations, giving manufacturers greater flexibility when working with different packaging formats and paper constructions.

Depending on the substrate and production process, RE702 can be considered for applications including:

• Carton closing and sealing

• Folding carton assembly

• Tissue box forming and bonding

• Paper bag side seam bonding

• Paper bag bottom bonding

• Paper-to-paper bonding

• Paper-to-paperboard bonding

• Kraft paper packaging assembly

• Coated paper packaging

• General paper folding and forming

• Packaging component assembly

• Continuous paper packaging production

From flat sheets to formed packaging structures, the adhesive can be applied to selected bonding areas according to the design of the finished product. This makes RE702 suitable for manufacturers producing different paper packaging formats on the same or similar production equipment.

The appropriate adhesive application pattern and amount should be determined according to the paper grade, surface treatment, coating, bonding area, machine speed, and packaging structure. For coated or specially treated papers, compatibility should be confirmed through testing before production.

In paper packaging production, adhesive-related odor and the cleanliness of the bonding process can become important considerations, particularly in enclosed production areas and continuous manufacturing environments.

RE702 is an EVA hot melt adhesive with low odor characteristics, helping reduce noticeable adhesive odor during normal application and processing.

In paper packaging production, adhesive consumption is influenced not only by the adhesive itself, but also by the way it is applied. Bonding area, glue pattern, application amount, machine speed, and paper construction can all affect the final consumption per package.

RE702 is developed to support controlled hot melt application across different paper and paperboard packaging processes. By adjusting the adhesive amount to the actual bonding requirement, manufacturers can avoid excessive glue deposition while maintaining adequate coverage along the bonding area.

Built for Continuous Paper Packaging Processes

RE702 is developed for paper packaging manufacturers working with continuous or automated production processes, where adhesive application needs to remain stable as materials move through forming, folding, closing, and assembly operations.

Rather than being limited to one specific packaging format, RE702 can be evaluated across different paper-based products and bonding stages.

Carton Closing & Box Assembly

For folding cartons and other paperboard packaging where adhesive is applied along selected flaps or closing areas. RE702 can be used to create consistent bonding lines while allowing the package to proceed through subsequent production stages after setting.

Tissue Box Production

For tissue box forming and assembly, including bonding areas created during folding and box construction. The adhesive can be evaluated according to the paperboard grade, coating, folding structure, and machine configuration.

Paper Bag Construction

For general paper bag manufacturing applications such as side seams, bottom construction, folding areas, and other paper-to-paper bonding points. It can be considered for kraft paper, printed paper, coated paper, and similar substrates.

Paper-to-Paperboard Assembly

For packaging structures that combine different paper-based substrates, where the bonding process needs to accommodate variations in material thickness, surface finish, and construction.

Continuous & Automated Production

For production lines where adhesive application is repeated continuously, RE702 can be evaluated according to machine speed, application temperature, glue pattern, nozzle or roller configuration, open time, and required setting behavior.

For each packaging format, the bonding process should be adjusted to the actual substrate and package design. Testing with the intended materials and production equipment is recommended to determine suitable application parameters and confirm final bonding performance.

Practical Hot Melt Processing for Paper Packaging

Paper packaging production often involves multiple steps between adhesive application and final packing. A hot melt adhesive needs to fit into this sequence without unnecessarily slowing down the line.

RE702 provides a practical EVA hot melt option for manufacturers handling different paper packaging formats, allowing the same adhesive platform to be evaluated for cartons, tissue boxes, paper bags, and other general paper assembly applications.

Its suitability for automated production depends on the specific equipment, substrate, application pattern, adhesive temperature, line speed, and bonding requirements. With appropriate process adjustment, RE702 can be incorporated into a range of continuous paper packaging operations.

If you are looking for an EVA hot melt adhesive for automatic paper bag production, paper bag handle bonding, paper-to-paper bonding, or shopping and gift bag assembly, RE702 can be tested on your actual materials and equipment.
