Cold, speed, pressure,
and tension
The ski industry is fast-moving and must constantly address new requirements and cope with new materials. Collano adhesives pave the way to dependable high-tech composites and have become indispensable in modern ski and board production.
Thermoplastic adhesive films are user-friendly, are easy to handle, and have excellent technical properties. A specialty among Collano adhesive films are the multilayer films. They make it possible not only to bond incompatible substrates but also to incorporate additional functions in sandwich elements. For example, the ski and snowboard industry successfully uses multilayer adhesive films that simultaneously serve as barrier layers.
