Smart adhesives for long-lasting and legible tire label adhesion
We supply customers throughout the entire tire label supply chain - be they in the production, conversion, printing or application of labels. We’re committed to supplying the adhesives our customers need for tire labels that are clear and legible with a sleek finish, and that can bear the brunt of extreme storage and transportation conditions.
Having specialized in smart and durable adhesive technologies more than ten years, our knowledgeable research and development teams are equipped to provide tire labels with the strong, smart adhesions and chemical properties our customers demand.
Tire labels: adhesive applications
The adhesive products we engineer to be compatible with vehicle tire labels are formulated to provide exceptional grab and a tenacious bond. Not only that, but their polyvalent properties provide exceptional long term adhesion and gap-fill over all kinds of irregular surfaces and face materials.
We are constantly adapting our chemical engineering processes to optimize the productivity of our end users. That is why our tire label adhesives consistently provide excellent die-cutting capabilities, even at a high coating weight.
Our adhesive solutions ensure that the most important information on tire labels is flawlessly clear – from load indexes, to temperature grades and tire traction specifications.
Repeated mechanical and load stresses, extended inventory duration, and extreme temperatures are no match for our tough label adhesives. Our tire-specific products are also fabricated with coarse, oily surfaces in mind, so by choosing a our product, you can rest assured the sprues on new tires won’t hinder our adhesive’s ability to stick labels down.

Tire labels: adhesive technologies
Hot melt pressure sensitive adhesive (HMPSA)
We produce ranges of our market-leading hot melt pressure sensitive adhesives designed specifically for use by labeling manufacturers. Our unique, patented HMPSA solutions are specially engineered to maintain consistent, high-level performance.
Even if your tires are fresh from the molding line, our HMPSAs will still hold the labels on your tire, regardless of their temperature.
Deep freeze label adhesives for the frozen food packaging industry
We know that clarity of labeling is of the utmost importance in the food industry. That is why our deep freeze adhesive products are engineered to ensure the packaging and labeling of your products maintain an unflawed, legible appearance and are easily traceable as a result.
We work with a wide range of customers across the frozen food and food grade packaging supply chain and are continuously adapting our engineering and research processes to supply the market with reliable, durable, and sanitary solutions for cold storage labels.
Deep freeze labels: adhesive applications
Our versatile range of deep freeze label adhesives are chemically engineered to be compatible with the surface types commonly used with meat and fish products, as well as other typical packaging substrates - both refrigerator and freezer grade.
Your label bonds won’t be compromised by either cold or damp surfaces, or high degrees of condensation. Like all our label adhesives, LEAD CHEMICALS freezer grade products possess impressive die-cut abilities and provide easy convertibility to minimize curling, warping, or bleeding of your labels and their edges.
Debonding does not occur with our adhesives, granting you reliable, and cost effective labelling solutions. All our deep freeze label adhesives are formulated with the intent of providing superior manufacturing efficiency, and clean label application.
As well as ensuring minimal staining, easy machining, converting, and general processing, our adhesives can work to deep freeze temperatures as low as 15 degrees Fahrenheit, for both permanent and removable labels.
