Manufacturing doors? How to choose the right adhesive

Ureka are able to offer a number of adhesives to help you achieve a successful, durable, long lasting bond to match the longevity of the door that you produce.

Whichever door you manufacture, we can give you the advice and guidance you need. 

Choosing the perfect adhesive: key considerations

There are a number of adhesive options for veneer, laminate, paper steel, lead, Acrovyn surfaces and many more.

And it’s not just the face of the door, is it? How about the lippings? EVA and PUR Hot Melt systems are what you need.

There are a number of factors that need to be considered. 

6 questions you need to ask to choose the best door manufacturing adhesive

• Are you hot or cold pressing?
• Is it an external door?
• Will it be a powder coated finish?
• Are you pressing in a bag press?
• What are the benefits of a UF over PVA?
• Does your door need to meet a fire rating specification?
