H.B. Fuller has won a ‘New Product Innovation Leadership Award’ from Frost & Sullivan for its hot melt adhesive product innovation and technical leadership in the nonwoven hygiene market.
The trophy is for the high-cohesion, olefin-based, hot-melt adhesives Full-Care 5300 and Full-Care 5650.
Full-Care 5300 and Full-Care 5650 work across diaper construction applications and support the latest trends in diaper design (or functionality), such as ultra-thin and modified shapes.
In its analysis, Frost & Sullivan concluded the products “offer superior performance with potential reduction in total cost in use ownership for the customer, which makes their products ideal upgrades from traditional adhesives in the non-woven hygiene sector”.
Hassan Rmaile, chief technology and innovation officer at H.B. Fuller, said the award reflects his firm’s “commitment to innovation”.
“Frost & Sullivan’s independent research provides valuable recognition of the work our exceptional global team is doing to drive forward total solutions in adhesive technology that support our customers’ efforts to bring breakthrough innovations to market,” he said.
