Solvent Free Adhesives.
Manufacturers have long faced the same challenge when choosing adhesives: balancing performance, safety, and efficiency. In many cases, improving one means sacrificing another.
Wakol changes that.
With the INTERCOLL® range, manufacturers can switch to a fully water-based, solvent-free adhesive system that delivers instant bonding, wider substrate compatibility, and a safer working environment without slowing production.
Why Manufacturers Are Moving Away from Solvent-Based Adhesives
Traditional solvent-based adhesives can create unnecessary risks and inefficiencies on the production line. From fire hazards and emissions to longer process times and increased operator exposure, they often come with hidden costs.
Modern production demands more. Manufacturers need adhesive systems that support compliance, improve safety, and maintain strong, reliable bond performance across a wide range of materials.
That is where the Wakol INTERCOLL® system stands out.
The Benefits of Wakol INTERCOLL® Water-Based Adhesives
No Solvents, No Loss of Performance
Wakol INTERCOLL® solvent free adhesives are designed to eliminate solvents without reducing bond strength or reliability. This allows manufacturers to lower fire risk, reduce emissions, and improve workplace safety while maintaining the performance needed for demanding production environments.
Instant Bonding for Faster Production
High initial tack means bonded components can be handled immediately, helping manufacturers maintain workflow and reduce bottlenecks. This makes the system ideal for production lines where speed and consistency matter.
Multi-Surface Adhesion with One System
One of the biggest advantages of the INTERCOLL® solvent free adhesives range is its versatility. These adhesives are suitable for bonding a wide variety of materials, including:
- Foam
- Fabric
- Wood
- Cardboard
- Low-energy plastics
This broader substrate compatibility helps simplify adhesive selection across different applications and production processes.
Cleaner, More Controlled Application
Advanced application technology helps reduce overspray and improves cleanliness across the workspace. The result is less waste, improved consistency, and a more controlled adhesive process overall.
A Proven Alternative to Solvent Systems
Wakol INTERCOLL® solvent free adhesives are specifically developed to replace traditional solvent-based systems without compromising on performance, durability, or operational efficiency.
A Smarter Adhesive Solution for Modern Manufacturing
This is not just a safer adhesive option. It is a smarter way to run production.
By switching to a water-based, solvent-free adhesive, manufacturers can improve safety, support environmental goals, and maintain the speed and bond quality their operation depends on.
For businesses currently using solvent-based or traditional adhesive systems, exploring a modern hybrid approach could deliver measurable benefits across safety, efficiency, and product performance.
