Glue Dots ® are quickly becoming an industry favorite. When your company needs an adhesive that bonds instantly, holds strong, and can be used for a variety of applications then they need Glue Dots ®, pressure sensitive adhesives that top hot melt glues in safety and appearance. The dots of glue can be used in home and professional uses. Applied quickly without any fuss, left-over residue, like some industrial adhesives (some surfaces may stain so testing is recommended), or headaches, Glue Dots ® can help increase production and lower costs in industries like Promotional Packaging and Bundling, Pharmaceutical Packaging, or by Direct Mail companies and businesses. They can also eliminate worries about not getting the right appearance when it comes to attaching tiny details or embellishments as is often needed in Crafts, Scrapbooking, Greeting Cards, and card making, and Printing and Bindery. Gluefast offers the right tack strength, which includes low, medium, high, or super high, and the right thickness, known as profile, and available in low (1/64th inch thick; the standard), medium (1/16th inch thick), or high (1/8th inch thick) for any use. Application is as easy as touching the object to the Glue Dot ® or using the Dot Shot Pro applicator to touch the dot to the item.
