Cardboard map adhesive SMLT 250 g, white – Mape adhesive for document folders

Map adhesive SMLT 250 g in white is a cardboard and paper adhesive formulated for bonding, repairing and reinforcing document folders and related office and archival materials. Supplied in a 250 g container, this white glue is designed for manual application and delivers a neutral, durable join that keeps folders and paper components aligned without yellowing or significant shrinkage over time. The product is intended for use where visible joins should remain neat and where a stable adhesive layer is required for storage and handling of documents.

Advantages

The adhesive provides a consistent white finish that integrates with cardboard and paper surfaces, giving a clean appearance for repaired or newly assembled document folders. It forms a stable bond suitable for repeated handling and stacking, and it remains workable during manual application to allow accurate positioning. The formulation is intended to minimize seepage and to dry with a firm, non-tacky surface, supporting archival and office organization needs.

Suitable for

• Bonding and repairing cardboard document folders
• Gluing paper inserts, tabs and reinforcement strips
• Small-scale bookbinding and folder reinforcement
• Office, archival and storage organization tasks

Key specifications

• Colour: white
• Net weight: 250 g
• Suitable substrates: cardboard and paper
• Application method: manual (brush, spatula or similar)
• Drying behaviour: forms a firm, non-tacky layer when dry

How to use

Ensure surfaces are clean, dry and free of dust or loose fibres. Apply a thin, even layer of the adhesive to one surface using a brush, spatula or similar tool. Align the parts promptly and press together, holding or weighting as needed until initial set is achieved. Remove excess adhesive immediately with a damp cloth. Allow the bond to dry fully before placing folders into heavy use or stacking; drying time depends on ambient temperature and humidity.

Usage recommendations

For best results, test the adhesive on a small inconspicuous area to confirm compatibility with specific paper or cardboard types. Use moderate amounts to avoid warping thin paper, and store the container tightly closed in a cool, dry place to preserve workability.
