A Significant Advancement
Reload represents a significant advancement in adhesive delivery, developed specifically to bring high-performance methyl methacrylate (MMA) and epoxy structural adhesives to fabricators and manufacturers in a more sustainable, cost-effective, and user-friendly format. The core innovation lies in Reload’s proprietary foil packaging technology, which enables the precise, reliable containment and dispensing of both MMA and epoxy chemistries within a reusable cartridge system.
This platform features a durable, precision-engineered outer cartridge housing that integrates seamlessly with standard manual, pneumatic, and battery-powered dispensers already in use across the industry. Fresh adhesive components are supplied in advanced laminated foil packs that load quickly, maintain exact mix ratios, and dispense smoothly. By reusing the outer cartridge dozens of times, users achieve substantial cost savings while reducing plastic waste by up to 99 percent compared to traditional single-use cartridges.
The development of this foil technology required extensive engineering to accommodate the distinct requirements of MMA and epoxy formulations.
MMA adhesives, with their highly reactive acrylic monomers and peroxide activators, are sensitive to oxygen and moisture, which can initiate premature curing or degrade shelf life. Epoxy systems, composed of resin and amine or other hardeners, demand strong protection against humidity and contaminants to preserve viscosity and long-term stability. To address these challenges, Reload’s foil packs incorporate sophisticated multi-layer lamination with aluminum barriers and specialized sealants that provide superior oxygen and moisture resistance. The flexible yet robust construction ensures complete product evacuation during dispensing, prevents leaks, and accommodates the varying viscosities and chemical properties of both chemistries, delivering consistent performance and maximum yield.
This thoughtful adaptation allows Reload to package a full range of high-performance adhesives without compromise.
Fabricators benefit from fresh, high-quality chemistry in every reload, supporting applications from rapid countertop seaming and solid surface bonding to marine construction, automotive assembly, composites work, and industrial repairs. The system offers exceptional versatility, enabling users to select the adhesive that best suits each project’s demands while enjoying unified advantages: easy adoption with no need for new equipment, reduced material costs, simplified inventory, and meaningful environmental improvements.
Reload’s foil packaging technology marks a forward-thinking solution for the adhesives industry, making premium MMA and epoxy formulations more accessible, economical, and sustainable. Shops gain the freedom to bond diverse substrates confidently, knowing the adhesive arrives in a format designed for efficiency, reliability, and responsibility.
