What is Water-Activated Adhesive?

Water-activated adhesive is a type of adhesive that does not inherently have adhesiveness and requires water to be activated and bonded. This adhesive is recognized as an innovative and environmentally friendly material widely used in industrial and commercial packaging. Unlike conventional adhesives, water-activated adhesive becomes active only when the surface is moistened and adheres to materials, making it a suitable and efficient choice for various packaging and labeling applications.

What is a Water-Activated Label?

A water-activated label is a type of paper or plastic label that uses water-activated adhesive to attach to various surfaces. These labels are designed to activate only when their adhesive comes into contact with water. Once activated, the adhesive strongly bonds to the desired surface and creates high resistance.
