At Techtextil, Collano will unveil innovative specialty adhesives for the apparel industry, e.g. for shoes, leisurewear, sportswear and protective clothing, on its stand J40 in Hall 3.0. The Swiss adhesives specialist will also present technical textile adhesives for use in the construction industry, the domestic, industrial and medical sectors, and for geotextiles. The company will have two new highlights at the exhibition: thermoplastic film adhesives with eco passport certification, and a “system” consisting of a breathable membrane and corresponding moisture-curing PUR hotmelt.

Breathable membrane and PUR hotmelt: a perfect system.

For manufacturers of outdoor fashion, military clothing, sportswear and workwear, safety and comfort enjoy top priority. Collano has developed a system in which the adhesive is perfectly matched to the high-quality breathable membrane. Not only does this ensure maximum reliability in laminate production. It also meets requirements on high breathability, lightness, washing resistance and soft, textile handle.

Film adhesives with eco-passport certificate

Products certified to Ökotext Standard 100 create transparency and act as a safeguard for both textile manufacturers and users. Thermoplastic film adhesives from Collano were recently awarded this ecopassport certificate. Textile manufacturers thus know that the delivered adhesives have already been tested – and that saves them time and money. Collano is helping to reassure users that textiles have been tested for harmful substances.

By embracing established standards such as Öko-Tex Standard 100, collaborating with manufacturers of adhesives coating machinery and developing adhesives that customers want, the experienced Collano team is clearly demonstrating that it is an innovative partner to the textile industry.
