Henkel Has Expanded Its Presence In The Global Heat Seal Coatings Market With The Launch Of Loctite Liofol HS 2809-22 RE Heat Seal Coating
1. In May 2020, Henkel has expanded its RE range with the introduction of the new Loctite Liofol HS 2809-22 RE heat seal coating. The Liofol HS 2809-22 RE heat seal coating has been certified for its recyclability with paper, enabling to better design the packaging
2. In November 2017, Mitsui
Chemicals, Inc. announced the development of the XSP series of Chemipearl^TM
which is a high-performance “Water-based Heat Seal Coating” for pharmaceutical
blister packaging
3. In September 2018, Avery Dennison
has launched heat sealable reclosure technology at Labelexpo Americas 2018. The
new technology significantly reduces the amount of plastic packaging required
and eliminates liner waste, providing an economic, sustainable solution to both
converters and brand owners.
Growing
need for tight packaging for shipments of foodstuff as heat seal coating helps
in preventing damage of food is contributing to the growth of heat seal
coatings market. Shifting consumer preferences towards environmentally friendly
materials as heat seal coating is produced by using paperboard with less PVC
material is again propelling the growth of the market. Thus increasing use of
paperboard content in this type of coating is significantly fostering the
growth of the heat seal coatings market. Moreover, the key manufacturer is
introducing innovative products in order to expand their business around the
globe. This will further favor the market growth. For instance, in April 2018,
Bostik, a global adhesive specialist for industrial, construction, and consumer
markets has announced the launch of a new copolyester, anti-fog heat seal
coating formulations for food packaging applications at this year’s PACK EXPO
in Chicago.
The
Asia Pacific is expected to lead the global heat seal coatings market and this
is attributed to the expanding e-commerce industry in the region. For instance,
in 2019, the Asia-Pacific region will account for 64% of total e-commerce sales
worldwide experiencing 25% Year-on-Year (YoY) growth to reach $2.271 trillion.
Heat
seal coating is a technique of thermal insulation, which uses an extremely thin
film to protect and insulate any objects from heat. The heat seal coating is a
special spray paint that is applied to the object, usually over a lubricating
compound or over an abrasive, such as a grinding wheel, to form a protective
layer. This layer of paint, applied over the metal, prevents the penetration of
heat into the metal, and therefore it prevents any heat damage to the metal, by
the application of heat. Heat seal coatings are very popular with many
different industries, from aerospace to automobiles to medical equipment.
