Consistent bonding at speed: Avedex® in paper core production

Avedex® dextrin-based adhesives help paper core and tube manufacturers achieve reliable bonding at high production speeds. With high wet tack, controlled setting behaviour and consistent visco-stability, Avedex® supports stable processing, strong fibre tear and improved dimensional stability, helping reduce disruptions while maintaining production efficiency.

Single and double wall corrugated board

High molecular weight and strong adhesion

Potato starch’s naturally high molecular weight delivers strong, consistent adhesion across single and double wall corrugated applications. Its high amylopectin content and low protein and fat levels give it a bonding performance advantage over corn or wheat starch, with the added benefit of full biodegradability.
