Carton & Box Side Pasting Adhesive Manufacturer in India

Side Pasting Gum That Keeps Every Carton Joint Shut

A printed carton can pass every quality check and still fail at one narrow strip. That strip is the side joint, the glue flap where the box is closed into a tube before it is filled.

We manufacture side pasting adhesive for carton makers who run folder gluer machines and for units that paste by hand. Our grades are made at our Pune plants and supplied in bulk to packaging converters across India.

What Side Pasting Means in Carton Making

A flat printed blank is cut, creased and folded so that one edge overlaps a narrow flap. Glue on that flap turns the blank into a folded tube. This is the side joint, also called the manufacturer’s joint.

A good box side pasting adhesive sets quickly in the folder gluer, holds through all of this, and leaves no glue squeezing out onto the print.

The joint looks small. It still has to survive

  • Compression when folded cartons are bundled and stacked
  • Opening and squaring on the customer’s packing line
  • Weight of the product during transport and storage
  • Humidity changes inside godowns and trucks

Our Side Pasting Adhesive Range

All grades with their data sheets are listed on our industrial grade adhesives page.

SYN 7700 M: For Side Pasting Machines

Made for folder gluer machines pasting boxes and cartons. It runs smoothly through the glue unit and sets fast, so cartons come out of the compression section already closed.

SYN 7700: For Manual Side Pasting, Paper to Plastic

Suited to hand pasting where paper meets a plastic or film surface. This makes it the go-to grade for side joints on film laminated cartons, which normal paper gum struggles to hold.

Custom Grades

Different board, varnish or machine speed? Our R&D team can tune setting time and viscosity and send a trial batch.

Board and Surface Compatibility

Laminated cartons are made in two steps. The film is bonded to the board first with a lamination adhesive, and the side joint is pasted after die cutting.

How to Trial a New Side Pasting Gum on Your Line

Switching adhesive should not mean a full day of rejected cartons. A short trial tells you most of what you need.

StepWhat to Check
1. Run a short batchWatch how the glue feeds through the wheel or nozzle
2. Check after compressionJoint should already hold when the carton leaves the belt
3. Tear test after a few hoursFibre tear across the joint means the bond is stronger than the board
4. Open on a packing lineCartons should square up without the joint lifting
5. Store for a few daysRecheck the joint after bundling and normal godown conditions

FAQs

What is side pasting adhesive?

It is the glue used on the flap of a carton blank to join it into a folded tube. This joint is called the side joint or manufacturer’s joint.

Which adhesive is used in folder gluer machines?

Folder gluers need a fast setting, clean running grade. SYN 7700 M is our adhesive made for side pasting machines.

Why do laminated cartons open at the side joint?

Film laminated board has a smooth plastic surface that normal paper gum cannot grip well. A paper to plastic grade such as SYN 7700 is made for this.

Can I use the same adhesive for manual and machine pasting?

It is better to use separate grades. Machines need faster setting, while manual work needs more open time.

Does side pasting adhesive work on varnished cartons?

It depends on the varnish and how much of the glue flap it covers. Send us a sample carton and we will suggest a grade.

What is the price of carton side pasting adhesive?

Price depends on the grade and your monthly volume. Share your requirement and our team will send a quote.

Do you supply in bulk across India?

Yes. We dispatch 50 kg packs and bulk orders from Pune to buyers across India and abroad.
