Covinax 625: Our Latest Innovation in Permanent PSAs

Franklin Adhesives & Polymers, a leading innovator of water-based pressure-sensitive adhesives (PSAs), proudly announces the launch of our Covinax 625 emulsion PSA. Covinax 625 offers great performance and versatility for a wide range of durable label and tape applications.

With improved performance, emulsion PSA has gained popularity in multiple durable applications compared to solvent-based PSA due to its environmental benefits from being solvent-free and the reduced total applied cost.  The adhesives for durable applications should incorporate features such as high adhesion to various surfaces while having good cohesive strength to withstand exposure to moisture, chemicals, and temperature fluctuations.

“At Franklin, we take pride in our reputation for delivering customized and innovative solutions that meet the application and processing needs of our customers,” said Zhaohui Sun, Vice President of Polymer Business. “Due to the product’s well-balance of adhesion and cohesion, Covinax 625-00 provides a strong foundation for durable label and tape applications.  Formulations derived from COV 625-00 find use across a wide range of applications including security labels, safety & warning labels, drum labels, permanent graphics, and double-sided tape for assemblies.”

More information on Covinax 625 – and other high-performance removable, permanent and specialty PSAs for different surfaces – is available on franklinap.com.
