Gluefast:
Specialists in Adhesives, Glues, and Application
Equipment
Established in 1939,
Gluefast is more than just a provider of
high-quality glues, adhesives, and application
equipment: since our early days as a small
labeler and envelope moistener manufacturer,
we have offered our customers the highest
standards in service while expanding our
glue, adhesive, and equipment product lines.
As a result, today Gluefast is a comprehensive
manufacturer of pressure sensitive adhesives,
packaging adhesive, adhesive applicators,
faux finish texture coating/texturizing
products, hot melt glue systems, coating
and laminating equipment, palletizing glue,
mounting and laminating products, and much
more.
The
Gluefast History:
From Labeler to International
Glue and Adhesives Manufacturer
Our original pioneering glue labeler and
envelope moistener from 1939 are still active
products in our expansive line of adhesives,
glues, and adhesive equipment. By the 1950’s,
Gluefast was manufacturing glues as well
as adhesives and carrying more than one
hundred products for adhesive packaging,
palletizing, and carton sealing. In 1986,
Gluefast joined the Packaging Machinery
Manufacturer’s Institute (PMMI) which
today includes more than five hundred U.S.
and Canadian manufacturers of packaging
equipment.
In 1992, we introduced
the SKID-LOCK®
UNITIZING SYSTEM, a simple and cost-effective
way to significantly reduce waste product
used in packaging. This palletizing adhesive
process has led to an increased number of
exports and distributor contacts. Today
we export SKID-LOCK®, as well as glue
labelers, to every continent. In 1998, Gluefast
introduced GLUE SPOTS, a unique removable
adhesive dots system, which consists of
pressure sensitive hot melt adhesives the
size of a dime extruded onto a silicone
release liner. By 2001, Gluefast changed
this product's format and renamed it Gluefast
DUOS. In 2005, Gluefast became a distributor
for the Glue Dots® product line.
On July 27, 1998, we moved
our factory and offices from Carlstadt in
northern New Jersey fifty miles south of
the town of Neptune. Gluefast’s current
facility is 17,000 square feet and provides
ample space for continued growth and expansion
In November 1998, Gluefast
introduced the MELTCATOR,
our first hot melt applicator in the form
of roll coater. In 2002, Gluefast released
the GLUE
RITER™, a pen-shaped, water-based
adhesive applicator. In September 2004,
Gluefast introduced the SOLO
GLUE RITER®, the only glue applicator
bottle featuring precision control. In May
2005, Gluefast introduced the CRAQUELURE
TEXTURE COATING for posters and prints.
The faux finish acrylic product applies
a layer that makes posters appear hand painted.
Since 1939, Gluefast has
been proud to serve a limitless number of
industries, from packaging to converting
to graphics. Gluefast has answers to your
adhesive, gluing, mounting, labeling, and
packaging needs: contact
