Volta. The answer to adhesive shortages.

Are you also struggling with the limited availability and high prices of industrial adhesives? Rising raw material prices and uncertain supply chains have dramatically increased the risk of adhesive shortages. Using less adhesive today not only reduces costs – it also protects your production from a potential shutdown.

Now every drop counts

The global supply of raw materials is increasingly being affected by geopolitical developments, trade conflicts, and unstable supply chains. Many companies are already struggling with rising prices. At the same time, there is a growing risk that certain adhesives will be available only in limited quantities or with delays in the future.

You may not be feeling the impact much yet. But right now is the perfect time to make your production more resilient. Because:

No adhesives, no packaging.
No packaging, no production.

Just get started

With Volta, saving on adhesive is super easy. That’s because Volta comes with everything you need. With hot melt stitching, you use up to 60% less adhesive.

You can easily replace the application heads from any manufacturer and start saving on adhesive right away.

The real cost factor isn't the adhesive. Rising material prices can be calculated. A production shutdown cannot.

If your packaging line cannot continue production due to a lack of adhesive, significantly higher costs will arise within a very short time due to:

  • production downtime

  • delivery delays

  • scheduling problems

  • dissatisfied customers

That is why adhesive efficiency is increasingly becoming a matter of production reliability – not just cost optimization.

Why companies choose Volta

The Volta electric application head reduces adhesive consumption through hot melt stitching. You decide how much adhesive to save; Volta takes care of the rest.

  • Up to 60% less adhesive consumption

  • Higher output with the same amount of adhesive

  • Greater supply reliability

  • Lower risk of unplanned production downtime

  • Lower production costs

  • No compressed air

  • Less maintenance

  • Greater process stability

A real-world example

Mondelez packages chocolate bars in secondary packaging – 20 cartons per minute, day after day. In 2024, the company switched to electric application heads and changed the adhesive application from a continuous bead to hot melt stitching.

The result: a 43% reduction in adhesive consumption.
