Carton Sealing Adhesives Market
Baumer Hhs launches Xact Easyfold system.
The Xact Easyfold system from German-based Baumer hhs is a leading manufacturer of industrial glue application and quality assurance solutions, enabling users to meet very close tolerances in folding-glue operations on multipoint gluers, even when processing the most demanding materials. The high-dimensional accuracy achievable with this efficient water scoring solution, even with complex folding and gluing, benefits the entire process chain, but especially filling and packing.

Market growth is driven by packaging production.
According to Towards Packaging, the Carton Sealing Adhesives Market is projected to experience significant growth, with estimates suggesting the market size will increase from USD 9.05 billion in 2026 to approximately USD 15.96 billion by 2035, representing a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.5% from 2026 to 2035. With the high-end technology of our Easyfold system, customers can avoid asymmetrical folds, which cause deviations in the inner and outer dimensions of the packaging. It focuses to meet very close tolerance in folding and gluing operations on multipoint gluers, even with the most demanding material.
Process Reliability
A core component of the water scoring solution from Baumer hhs is the SW-600 Easyfold precision applicator. It is developed specifically for this application. It consists of two stage filter assembly that effectively prevents the nozzles from clogging, including nozzles of very small diameter. Seals minimize the risk of drip formation even after extended periods in operation. This feature benefits the reliability of the overall process.
The application of the folding liquid can be calibrated to the machine speed and volume of liquid required. Baumer Hhs likewise designed the feed unit to work hand-in-hand with the Easyfold system.
Precision-glued joints
The SW-600 Easyfold precision applicator reduces the bending stiffness of packaging materials and applies very narrow streams of scoring fluid along the edge of fold lines. The scoring fluid consists of water with an added surfactant, which reduces the surface tension of the packaging material along the edge of fold lines.
Instead of just remaining on the surface, the liquid can immediately penetrate the fibres of the substrate, significantly reducing bending stiffness in a defined area – but only temporarily. The multipoint gluer or folder-gluer can then precisely fold a carton along the wetted lines, adhering to even the tightest dimensions.
A recent report by Towards Packaging highlights that the Carton Sealing Adhesives Market growth is fueled by the rise in e-commerce, the need for secure packaging to ensure product safety in transits and the growing consumer preference for sustainable and eco-friendly packaging material. This technology led to both bonding strength and versatility.
