Solvent-based adhesives are among the most widely used and reliable types of adhesives in industry and crafts. They are based on the principle of dissolving the surface of the bonded materials, which leads to chemical bonding and the formation of a very strong and permanent joint. After the solvent evaporates, a thin layer of polymer remains on the surface, ensuring long-term stability and high resistance.

Solvent-based adhesives are characterised by excellent adhesion to plastics, leather, rubber, wood, textiles, metals and ceramics. They are ideal for assembly, repair and production applications where a strong, flexible and permanently durable bond is required. They are often used for bonding footwear, upholstery, plastic covers, hoses, rubber parts, floor coverings or in the automotive industry.
Once cured, a solvent-based adhesive creates a strong, elastic joint that withstands vibrations, moisture, temperature fluctuations and chemical exposure. Thanks to its flexibility, it can adapt to the movement of the materials without cracking or loss of strength. Some adhesive types are designed for thermal activation, which increases their performance in demanding applications.
Solvent-based adhesives are usually applied with a brush, roller, spray or an application system. After a short flashing-off time, the bonded surfaces are pressed together, creating an immediately strong joint. Thanks to their viscous formulation, they spread easily and allow for even application on larger surfaces.
Very high bond strength even under long-term load
Universal use for many types of materials
Resistance to moisture, temperature and chemicals
Flexibility of the joint – ideal for soft and flexible materials
Possibility of thermal activation to increase adhesion
Despite the advent of modern technologies, solvent-based adhesives retain a strong position thanks to their effectiveness, ease of use and long-term reliability. They are ideal for professionals and DIY users who require a permanently strong and flexible bond with resistance to external influences.
The Solvent-Based Adhesives category offers proven products with high strength, flexibility and adhesion that provide reliable quality bonds in industrial, service and craft applications.
