Applications

Supex 309 is a versatile, water-based adhesive designed for professional use in manufacturing and assembly environments that prioritize safety and sustainability. It provides a strong, flexible, and fast-drying bond ideal for a wide range of materials.

Typical applications include:

  • Leather goods manufacturing — handbags, wallets, belts, and accessories

  • Upholstery and furniture — bonding leather, foam, and fabric materials

  • Footwear production — attaching soles, insoles, and lining materials

  • Multi-material assembly lines — effective on PVC, foam, rubber, fabric, and composites

Supex 309 delivers industrial-grade performance while supporting eco-conscious production processes with its solvent-free, low-VOC formulation.

Surface Preparation

  • Ensure all bonding surfaces (leather, foam, PVC, etc.) are clean, dry, and free from dust, oil, or release agents.

  • For smooth leather, lightly roughen the surface to improve adhesion.

Application

  • For best results, apply the adhesive using a spray gun for an even, thin coating.

  • For smaller applications, a brush or roller may also be used.

Bonding

  • Allow the adhesive to tack—it should be partially dry with no wet transfer.

  • Align and press both surfaces together firmly using a hand roller, press, or a hammer with a protective cloth.

Drying Time

  • Quick tack: Achieved within a few minutes for light-pressure bonding.

  • Full cure: Typically within 24 hours, depending on humidity and temperature.

Tips for Best Results

  • Apply thin, even coats—multiple light layers provide stronger adhesion than a single heavy one.

  • Gentle heat activation (50–60°C) can enhance bond strength.

  • Always store the container tightly sealed to prevent premature drying.
