Water-Based Adhesive for Rubber

ZEVOCŪ - It's safe for the environment.

06-18-2009 - Akron, OH - Today's manufacturers of rubber products face a serious dilemma. Increasingly strict environmental laws often force them to choose between product quality and regulatory compliance. That's why more and more companies are switching to ZEVOCŪ water-based rubber adhesive from APV Engineered Coatings. ZEVOCŪ is so environmentally safe that it complies with today's toughest regulations. Yet its adhesion strength is equal to ordinary solvent-based products. It also applies easily and dries quickly.

ZEVOCŪ is absolutely free of volatile organic compounds (VOC's or COV's) so it complies with all federal, state, and local emissions standards. Using ZEVOCŪ instead of ordinary adhesives simplifies your permitting requirements. It's also non-flammable and non-hazardous, so your facility becomes a safer workplace. You may even be able to lower your insurance costs.

The business of manufacturing becomes much simpler when you use ZEVOCŪ water-based adhesive.

  • Easier clean-up of equipment and work areas.
  • High volume of solids means that less adhesive goes further. Less storage space is required.
  • Cost per application is comparable to solvent-based adhesives.
  • Less odor, which makes for easier OSHA compliance.
  • No need for special storage areas or sprinklers.
