UPM Raflatac: RR 24 removable adhesive – Innovative new arrival offers performance, versatility and choice

(UPM Raflatac, Tampere, 29 March 2011) – UPM Raflatac’s new RR 24 removable adhesive is designed to perform superbly on-press at the highest speeds and offers excellent die-cutting. Faster press speeds boost productivity for a more profitable operation.

This new adhesive adds choice and versatility to UPM Raflatac’s range of paper face materials, especially as it performs across a wide range of temperatures. The new anti-aging formulation also has excellent shelf life, meaning RR 24 can be stocked with confidence to satisfy demand for shorter lead times.

RR 24’s most desirable properties for packers include fast and trouble-free label dispensing and excellent initial adhesion on difficult substrates like cardboard. Once applied, RR 24 offers good long-term removability.
