Application and use

The pressure-sensitive adhesive 72Apc is specially developed for applications where the labelled packaging material, paper or board, is recycled after use. It is not necessary to separate the label for this, as the adhesive 72Apc does not have negative effects on the recycling path for paper packaging materials. The recycled paper or packaging material can be reused and printed on without any problems. In relation to the total packaging material, the weight share of the label can be up to 25%. 

Adhesive 72Apc has very good aging, heat and light resistance.

The pressure sensitive adhesive 72Apc has been certified as "Recyclable" by the Papiertechnische Stiftung (PTS) following the PTS method PTS-RH 021:2012 (Draft Oct 2019). The certificate is valid in combination with the following material:
