Water-based adhesive laminating services provide consumer and industrial products companies with a cost-effective means to produce a variety of products. American Custom Converting (ACC), which delivers custom converting solutions across a wide range of industries, is a trusted provider of laminating services in the United States.

Consumer products companies rely on ACC for high-quality adhesive laminating to marry a variety of substrates. End users benefit from the additional strength, softness and stability of two-ply constructions.

“Our water-based adhesive laminations make the tissue converting process more efficient because the two layers will not separate,” says Mark Kyles, managing member of sales. “Water-based adhesive laminating is a lower cost alternative for finished products as opposed to hot melt applications, which we can also provide.”

“Nonwoven substrates can be used in many products that need an absorbent layer,” Kyles says. “We have even seen water-based adhesive laminating used for the absorbent pads in a meat package to prevent juices from soaking through to the packaging.”
