awm

Accelerated weathering machine

Our accelerated weathering machine is used to prove the long term durability of our products for outdoor applications, often on our customers’ material.

tesnometre

Electronic tensile tester

An electronic tensile tester is used to measure bond strength to various materials, and release liner values. Much of our adhesion testing is on customer's own materials.

mse

Measuring surface energy

Measuring surface energy can be important in determining the correct product for the application.

Long-term shear tests

Long-term shear tests provide the best reassurance or tape reliability…

Shear is the measurement that probably gives us the most information - certainly as a predictor of long term performance. All pressure-sensitive adhesives under stress will slowly flow with time, particularly at elevated temperatures. Most companies use shear only as a short term Quality Control test - testing for just a matter of hours. We test shear long term, sometimes for many months, and at different temperatures, so we really know that our products will perform long term.

CUSTOMER REVIEWS

"Technibond has been a preferred supplier of FP Tapes limited in Ireland since 2004. Since that time we have had the benefit of doing business with a Company that has a high commitment to service. Deliveries are on time and the quality and presentation of their products is of a very high standard. Our business is twenty five years old, and in all that time we have not had another distributor that would meet the exacting standards that Technibond applies to their business. It is indeed a pleasure to do business with this Company."
