How to produce a better, more competitive product with enhanced performance

Bonding or fastening materials together is one of the most important developments in manufacturing of modern times. Never before has it been so easy for you to seamlessly bond two materials together for improved end-use performance, greater design flexibility and increased efficiency.

Compared to other fastening methods that waste time, create work or refinishing steps (i.e. screws, staples, spot welds and rivets), Tapes and Adhesives are a manufacturer’s dream come true.

And we’re not just talking about a few products. We can offer dozens of products that can flawlessly attach and preserve your materials. Odds are your competitors are not taking full advantage of these methods.

For almost 50 years Graham Muir Sales have been working with customers to provide solutions for their bonding or fastening requirements. Today we work with hundreds of companies in the industrial and automotive manufacturing sector. Our real world expertise has helped customers improve their POS displays, sign construction, reduce vibration in trailer construction and address their packaging needs.

A decade ago we started slitting tapes while most companies were still fixated on pushing standard roll sizes. Our customers have the ability to choose the width of tape that best suits their application. We can consistently and efficiently convert rolls from 1/8” (3mm) to 60”, for both small and large job requirements.

Since then, we’ve become one of only a handful of experts offering full converting services. As we began educating our customers: engineers, designers, program managers and buyers, we saw how hungry people were for quality slitting, perforation and die cutting.

Graham Muir Sales has developed a Comprehensive Guide to Bonding. Through this method, we find answers to your joining dilemma, allowing you to create the products your customers demand. Together we analyze:

Bond strength for your application. We offer a variety of adhesive systems from post-it note type removable to load bearing structural adhesives.
Increased material options. No longer are you restricted to just a few friendly materials like plain metal, glass, nylon, acrylic, PVC, ABS and some painted surfaces. Today’s adhesive formulations have been re-engineered to allow high performance bonds on difficult to bond low surface energy materials, like polystyrene, polypropylene, polyethylene, powder coat paints and slightly oily metals.
Compensation for the different expansion rates of your substrates with flexible and conformable engineered adhesives.
Vibration dampening and noise reduction. The viscoelastic construction is designed to absorb shock and vibration.
Improved impact resistance from a drop or a direct blow toughened versions are available.
Prevention of material corrosion that occurs between two different types of metal.
Resistance and performance when exposed to high and low temperatures, chemicals, UV, moisture and salt.

Our goal is to share with you a larger picture of the unique world of adhesive products. Learn new bonding methods that can be quickly and easily implemented to unleash a better, more competitive product with enhanced appearance, superior performance and improved process.

Email or Call our Sales Team at 905-602-6622 and ask for a Bonding Specialist. We will be happy to discuss your specific requirements and any aspect of Bonding or Fastening that you may have questions about.

We look forward to working with you to design and build better products. Don't let compliancy, confusion or fear of the unknown keep you from participating! Tapes and Adhesives can be an important part of your product success story.
