PROBLEM

During the colder months, many factories, workshops and warehouses experience difficulties with their adhesive products (packaging tape, double-sided tape, adhesive envelopes, etc) sticking to their products. Low intial 'tack' and extended 'wet out' (time taken for adhesive to set) are common problems, whether it be double-sided tapes being applied, double-sided tape at installations, packaging tape (sealing boxes), etc.

WHY

The simple answer is that adhesive products perform better in warmer conditions due to the chemical composition of the adhesive on that product.

SOLUTION

Store your adhesive tapes/products in the warmest section of your premises overnight (office/lunchroom), when their use is required, bring in numerous rolls at a time to leave the rest of your supply in warmth to obtain the best results.
