Water-Based Adhesives
High-performance bonding without the reliance on solvent-based adhesives
Handy supplies the Swiss-manufactured Simalfa range of water-based adhesives, developed specifically for foam converters and mattress manufacturers.
Suitable for a wide range of foam-related substrates, Simalfa adhesives can be applied using roller or spray systems, with gravity-fed and pressurised application options available.
The range provides manufacturers with an effective alternative to traditional solvent-based adhesives, helping support a cleaner working environment without compromising the demands of the production process.
We also offer a range of Simalfa hot melt adhesives for applications where an alternative bonding solution is required.

In the interests of both the environment and our staff we were keen to move away from foam adhesion glues that included solvents but we wanted to avoid the need for a complicated activator driven (2 part glue). Handy Ltd demonstrated their single component water-based Simalfa 301 adhesive at our premises. We were delighted with the performance of the glue and the simplicity of the gravity-fed system. We subsequently converted all our glue spraying stations to the Simalfa product.
