Aeration

New Generation Laminating Technology

Aeration – The Innovative Next-generation Adhesive Technology

With the high demand for paper packaging laminates, an increasing number of manufacturers are looking for new solutions to achieve the best performance as well as to ensure cost-efficiency.

For a resource-optimized production of lamination, Henkel offers so-called “Aeration” – an innovative technology greatly optimizing laminating processes in the paper industry while simultaneously improving efficiency.

This process combines the water-based AQUENCE® laminating adhesive and a third-generation glue-mix unit that adds controlled quantities of air to the gluing process, such as open or closed flute corrugated board, as well as solid board.

Difficulties Faced in Paper Laminating

  • Warping
  • High moisture content & long drying time (upto 24-48 hours)
  • Wastage during cutting and storing of boards (strapping) & returns
  • Slow line speeds
  • Splashing
  • Handling & processing of starch
  • Storage space requirement (boards and glue)
