Environmentally friendly adhesives

At Tribotec, we are constantly working to replace adhesives that are subject to labelling with more health-friendly alternatives, as we naturally want to promote a good working environment & health. 

 

Adhesives subject to labelling 

An adhesive subject to labelling is an adhesive that, according to the CLP Regulation, must be labelled with a hazard symbol. 

 

This is how the determination of what constitutes an adhesive/product subject to labelling works: 

  • The CLP Regulation is the EU system of directives that establishes guidelines to set an appropriate classification of the product.
  • Classification - indicates whether and to what extent the substance of the product may cause harm to humans or the environment.

 

Alternatives to labelled adhesives - environmentally friendly adhesives 

At Tribotec, we are actively working to include adhesives in our range that are not subject to labelling. Today, we can offer several health-friendly adhesives in both anaerobic adhesives, CA adhesives and MS polymer that are not subject to labelling - but which are of course fully equivalent to products that are currently subject to labelling. An example of this is Loxeals not subject to labelling glue for threadlocking/sealing.
