How to choose environmentally friendly adhesive products?
When choosing environmentally friendly adhesive products, the following aspects can be considered:
- Ingredients and labels: Read product labels and instructions carefully to understand the ingredients and characteristics of adhesives. Choose products labeled “green,” “low VOC,” “Water-based,” or other environmentally friendly labels. Avoid adhesives that contain toxic or harmful chemicals.
- Water-based adhesives: Water-based adhesives are preferred because they use water as a base solvent and have lower VOC content and less environmental pollution than traditional organic solvent-based adhesives.
- Sustainable raw materials: Consider choosing adhesives that use sustainable raw materials, such as plant-based adhesives or biodegradable materials. These adhesives can reduce dependence on limited resources, lower carbon emissions, and reduce the impact on the environment.
- Green certification and standards: Look for adhesive products that have obtained green certification or meet environmental protection standards. For example, some international certification bodies, such as European Eco-label and American LEED certification, provide certification and guidance for environmentally friendly products.
- Comprehensive evaluation: in addition to environmental performance, but also comprehensive consideration of adhesive performance and applicability. Ensure that the selected adhesive meets the requirements of the specific application, such as bond strength, weather resistance, etc.
- Consult a professional: If unsure about the choice of adhesive, consult a professional or an adhesive supplier who can provide advice and guidance on environmentally friendly adhesives.
In general, the selection of environmentally friendly adhesive products requires a comprehensive consideration of ingredients, labelling, sustainability, certification and performance. By carefully evaluating and comparing the environmental characteristics of different products, adhesive products that meet the needs and have less impact on the environment can be selected.
