Although they are rarely in the limelight, adhesives are the glue that holds the pieces together.

Craigbond 3991 series
Craig Adhesives & Coatings’ Craigbond 3991 series is a water-based repositionable product line that allows a label or glue flap to be removed or opened and later reattached or closed while producing no fiber tear. The adhesive material in the series is a high-tech water-based formula designed for easy application with flexographic, screen, or extrusion devices, and yields a non-destructive bond on a variety of substrates. The system most commonly employed uses Craigstick 3991PLV and Craigcoat 6960CLR water-based release overprint varnish. Both formulations are designed with mileage, adhesion/release, wide operating windows, cleanup, and value-added performance in mind.—Craig Adhesives & Coatings,
