At this year’s Label Industry Global Awards, HERMAsuperTack (63Vst) won the Innovation Award for companies with more than 300 employees. The distinction honors the creativity of Herma, the family-owned business from Filderstadt, Germany.
Ralf Drache, sales director Germany and head of marketing at Herma Self-Adhesive Materials, says, “We are very proud of having received the Innovation Award at this year’s Labelexpo fair in Brussels in front of more than 500 industry colleagues. Innovations ensure that companies are future-oriented, create growth and are key factors in international competition. Receiving this award from a prestigious jury is a special honor for us and also an obligation to continuously develop our products. Great praise is due to the commitment of our employees, whose creativity and innovative approach are indispensable for the development of innovative products such as HERMAsuperTack (63Vst).”
According to Herma, HERMAsuperTack (63Vst) is the first entirely resin-free adhesive for labels that are required to offer extremely high adhesion as soon as they are applied. In the absence of resins, which make up most of an adhesive’s migrating components, it is an exceptionally low-migration solution. It satisfies the rating criteria for correction factor 2, thereby reaching the approval for contact with dry, moist, and fatty foodstuffs.
The label's excellent initial tack makes HERMAsuperTack (63Vst) ideally suited for problem-solving when it comes to films and moist, fatty, or slightly dirty surfaces – its range extends well beyond food labeling. It makes the most of its advantages at near-freezing temperatures combined with condensation. Despite its tack and optimal migration levels, HERMAsuperTack (63Vst) can be processed as easily as conventional dispersion adhesives.
