Sino-Adhesive at ITM 2026: PUR Solutions for Textile Lamination

From June 9 to 13, 2026, Guangdong Sino-Adhesive New Material Technology Co., Ltd. (Sino-Adhesive) successfully exhibited at the ITM 2026 International Textile Machinery Exhibition in Istanbul, Turkey. Hosted at the Tüyap Fair Convention and Congress Center, Sino-Adhesive showcased its advanced PUR hot melt adhesives and TPU film lamination solutions at Booth 115D, targeting the specific needs of functional textiles, apparel, and footwear manufacturing.

As a premier international platform for the textile machinery and materials industry, ITM 2026 gathered equipment manufacturers, material suppliers, and professional buyers from across the globe. Through this exhibition, Sino-Adhesive further demonstrated its strategic product layout and technical expertise in textile lamination to the international market.

Addressing Real-World Textile Lamination Challenges

In the production of sportswear, functional fabrics, and footwear, manufacturers are looking far beyond basic adhesion. The real industry challenges revolve around specific application issues: preserving the fabric's original hand-feel and breathability, ensuring long-lasting bond stability, adapting to continuous production lines, and balancing manufacturing efficiency with the garment's aesthetic and comfort.

Focusing on these practical demands, Sino-Adhesive’s showcase highlighted high-permeability fabric bonding, TPU film lamination, and functional material applications. Our approach emphasizes the seamless match between material performance and the lamination process, rather than just selling an adhesive.

Core Product Highlights at Booth 115D

Based on our on-site displays, Sino-Adhesive presented the following key product categories and application directions:

• PUR hot melt glue
• PUR hot melt glue for high-permeability fabrics
• TPU film & fabric lamination solutions

• Application showcases for apparel, footwear, and functional textiles

These exhibits underscore Sino-Adhesive's commitment to niche lamination requirements, particularly prioritizing breathability, bond performance, and process compatibility for functional textile materials.

Application-Driven Advantages

1. Bonding for High-Permeability Fabrics

Our booth prominently featured PUR hot melt solutions specifically engineered for high-permeability fabrics. For highly breathable textiles, the value of an adhesive lies not only in creating a stable bond but in minimizing interference with the material's inherent ventilation properties. This adaptability is crucial for activewear, outdoor functional gear, and related end-products.

2. Balancing Bond Strength with Aesthetics

In textile lamination, clients simultaneously demand peel strength, surface flatness, and visual consistency. The PUR and TPU lamination solutions presented by Sino-Adhesive prioritize the overall performance of the finished composite, striving to deliver excellent bond strength without compromising the garment's appearance and tactile experience.

3. Optimized for Continuous Lamination Processes

As demonstrated at our booth, Sino-Adhesive offers more than just adhesive products; we provide comprehensive application systems for TPU film and fabric lamination. This indicates that our R&D philosophy values the synergy between the product and the lamination process. For manufacturers, these solutions are easier to integrate into existing continuous lamination workflows, achieving an optimal balance between equipment, temperature, line speed, and material structure.

4. Targeted Solutions for Functional Textiles

Sino-Adhesive’s product lineup does not attempt a one-size-fits-all approach. Instead, it is laser-focused on functional textile composites, footwear, and apparel lamination. This targeted strategy ensures our development stays close to the production floor, recognizing that different substrates, structural layers, and end-uses require distinct adhesive systems and lamination methodologies.

Shifting Market Focus: From Price to Process Capability

During the exhibition, the Sino-Adhesive team engaged in face-to-face discussions with clients from Turkey and surrounding regions. We observed a clear shift in market priorities: buyers are moving away from simple price comparisons and focusing heavily on specific application suitability. Key questions included:

• Is this adhesive compatible with our current material structure?
• Does it fit our existing lamination equipment and process?
• Can it perform stably in the final targeted product?
• Can the supplier provide continuous technical support?

This trend confirms that the textile adhesive market is transitioning from "general material procurement" to "application-specific solution selection." Sino-Adhesive’s presence at ITM 2026 perfectly aligned with this industry evolution.

Expanding Global Partnerships

Through the international platform of ITM 2026, Sino-Adhesive has strengthened communications with overseas clients, opening new doors for global cooperation in functional textiles, apparel lamination, footwear bonding, and related composite fields.

Looking ahead, Sino-Adhesive will continue to drive the development and optimization of PUR hot melt adhesives and composite solutions. By focusing on diverse substrates, processes, and end-use scenarios, we remain dedicated to providing material support that closely aligns with real-world manufacturing needs.
