BioBond Accelerates the Transition to Biobased Hot Melt Adhesives with Better Performance, Better Pricing and Better for Everyone Approach
BioBond Adhesives, Inc. (“BioBond”), a leader in innovative biobased adhesives and coatings, today announced its next entry into the hot melt market with the introduction of its BioMelt™ Pressure Sensitive Adhesive product offerings for labels, tape and many industrial and consumer markets. These new plant-based solutions are available for sampling in Q4-2025 and will be on display at BioBond’s booth at PackExpo in Las Vegas September 29-October 30. According to Greg Piche, Vice President of Products, “The BioMelt™ PSA line joins the company’s recently introduced BioMelt™ hot melt for packaging. BioMelt™ is our third product segment that is made from plant-based components, is certified as USDA Biopreferred with no odors and zero microplastics, and is PFAS free,” said Piche.
“With excellent performance and very competitive pricing, we’re introducing a game-changer that will have an immediate and significant impact on the industry,” said Brad Boelkins, Vice President of Business Development. We expect to scale volume production by the last quarter of 2025.
Dr. Clayton Westerman, BioBond’s Chief Science Officer, said, “The development of high-performing, cost-effective, and sustainable biobased products that meet industry demands is challenging. BioBond plans to expand its biobased hot melt portfolio for packaging and now pressure sensitive adhesives with future products featuring faster curing times and higher biobased content.”
