Key Attributes
of Heat-Sealable Coatings

Water-Based
In 1971, we were among the first to introduce a water-based primer to the flexible packaging industry. Today, we are the global leader in water-based primers, coatings and adhesion promoters.
Heat-Activated

Our heat-sealable coatings create bonds when exposed to heat.

Face-to-Face Sealing

Some MICA heat-sealable coatings can seal to themselves.

Varied Peel Strengths and Characteristics
Our heat-sealable coatings can provide different levels of peel strengths and characteristics depending on the desired application.
