About hot melt adhesive

Hot melt adhesives are available as sticks or granules and are designed for building assemblies, cases and covers. Hot melt adhesives bond cardboard, wood, leather, plastics and paper through beads or fillets applied with an applicator gun.

Due to their ultra short setting time, hot melt adhesives enable instantaneous assembling of most materials. And thanks to their translucent properties, they are perfect for book and magazine bonding.
