Introducing Nekoosa's NextBond™: The Revolutionary Adhesive for Long-Term Print Applications

Published by Justin Lopez - VP of Operations on Jun 17th 2024

In the ever-evolving world of print technology, finding an adhesive that balances durability, cost-effectiveness, and environmental sustainability has been a constant challenge. Nekoosa has risen to this challenge with the introduction of their innovative NextBond™ adhesive. This new product promises to set a new standard in the industry, providing a robust and eco-friendly alternative to traditional solvent-based adhesives.

What Makes NextBond™ Stand Out?

NextBond™ is not just another adhesive; it's a game-changer. Designed for long-term print applications, it offers numerous advantages over conventional adhesives:

  • Superior Performance: NextBond™ provides solvent-based performance without the associated high costs. Its strong UV-cured adhesive bonds can last up to 10 years, ensuring that your prints remain intact and vibrant for an extended period.
  • Eco-Friendly Solution: One of the most significant benefits of NextBond™ is its environmental impact. Unlike traditional solvent-based adhesives, NextBond™ is solvent-free, producing no hazardous waste. It also cuts CO₂ emissions by over 50% and contains no VOCs, making it a greener choice for businesses committed to sustainability.
  • Exceptional Durability: NextBond™ is engineered to withstand tough environmental conditions. It resists heat, aging, humidity, UV radiation, sunlight, moisture, and chemicals, ensuring that your prints stay in top condition regardless of where they are displayed.
  • Optical Clarity: The adhesive boasts non-yellowing properties and exceptional UV stability, maintaining the optical clarity of your prints over time. It also offers excellent dimensional stability, ensuring that your graphics remain precisely as intended without shrinking.
  • Versatile Applications: Whether you need adhesive for long-term outdoor graphics, OEM graphics, transit graphics, point-of-purchase displays, window graphics, posters, or decals, NextBond™ has you covered.
