Gluing metallized packaging

For bonding tricky metallized or coated packaging surfaces — the kind that often need extra‑reliable adhesion and food‑safe compliance – we offer an extensive portfolio.

Company	Key Adhesive Types	Notable Features for Metallized / Coated Packaging	Typical Applications
Intercol	Polyolefin hot melts (incl. Futura HM series), EVA hot melts, specialty low‑temp grades	• Excellent adhesion to coated/laminated boards and difficult substrates • High thermal stability, clean running at high speeds • Food‑contact compliant (BRC, SML) • Options for deep‑freeze resistance and powder‑tight sealing	• Folding cartons, wraparound cartons, trays, case sealing • Powder‑tight packs for cereals, pet food, detergents • Frozen goods packaging • Heat‑sensitive packaging with low‑temp grades2
H.B. Fuller	Fusión en caliente, water‑based, solventless laminating adhesives (e.g., Flextra® range), pressure‑sensitive adhesives	• Designed for compatibility with films, foils, and metallized layers • Strong seal integrity, chemical and temperature resistance• Food‑safe and migration‑resistant options • Compostable adhesive solutions for flexible packaging	• Flexible packaging laminations (film/foil/metalized film) • Case and carton sealing • Food and beverage labeling• Multipack bundling and retail‑ready packaging4

Metallized packaging — whether foil‑laminated cartons or metallized films — can be challenging to bond because of their low surface energy and coatings. Both Intercol and H.B. Fuller address this with tailored chemistries that maintain adhesion under stress, temperature swings, and in contact with food.
