Biodegradable Bulk Packaging Hot Melt

More About This Biodegradable Bulk Hot Melt Adhesive

These biodegradable pellets are a sustainable bulk hot melt solution designed for large-scale packaging and industrial applications. Made with 44% bio-based, sustainably sourced raw materials, these biodegradable hot melt glue pellets provide excellent adhesion on various substrates, including cardboard and paper. Ideal for use in bulk hot melt systems, this adhesive is engineered to deliver consistent performance while minimizing environmental impact. The pellets begin to break down when exposed to oxygen, UV light, and heat—natural conditions that trigger the degradation of their synthetic polymer base. To maintain quality and effectiveness, store these ASTM-D6400 certified pellets in their original packaging, away from direct sunlight, and at temperatures below 86°F (30°C). Due to their specific certifications, these pellets decompose into non-harmful residues, providing an eco-friendly alternative for industrial adhesive needs.

Special Properties

• Eco-Friendly Degradation: These biodegradable hot melt glue pellets break down naturally after use without producing micorplastics. Certified to ASTM D6400, EN13432, and ASTM D6954 standards, they ensure full biodegradability.
• Sustainably Sourced: Formulated with 44% bio-based materials from sustainable sources, these compostable hot melt adhesives are non-toxic and safe for indirect food contact, complying with FDA 175.105 standards.
• Versatile Application: Ideal for large-scale packaging and industrial applications, these ASTM-D6400 certified hot melt pellets provide strong and reliable bonding on various substrates, including cardboard and paper.
• Environmentally Initiated Breakdown: Decomposes under naturally occurring conditions, such as exposure to oxygen, UV light, and heat, accelerating the breakdown process without needing specialized composting facilities.
• Safe for All Stages: These compostable hot melt glue pellets are non-toxic both during application and decomposition. They only leave behind non-harmful products that microorganisms will ultimately consume.
