Collano unveils new UV-curing solution

At the ICE Europe, Swiss adhesives specialist Collano unveiled a novel UV-curing solution for UV curable pressure sensitive hot melt adhesives. Collano collaborated with UV lamp specialist Heraeus to develop a system that can yield 85% energy savings over conventional UV curing methods.

The service life of Soluva® UVC-Hotmelt Modules is exceptionally long at 10,000 hours, and saves on costly maintenance and replacements. The eco-friendly, UV curable pressure sensitive hot melt adhesives are solventless, adhere to a wide range of substrates and are suitable for self-adhesive

coatings on heat-sensitive materials. Collano’s high-tech coater, which not only boasts mediumpressure UV lamps but was also recently equipped with Heraeus Soluva® UVC-Hotmelt Modules, makes a unique platform for pilot coating and application tests. Find out more at www.collano.com.
