Vinyl Acetate Ethylene (VAE) Copolymers

VAEs are water-based emulsions, also sold in powder form (construction adhesives).

We distribute a range of VAE Copolymers on behalf of our Principal, Vinavil. 

VAEs offer unique moisture resistance, flexibility, improved tack and adhesion in low temperature and wet conditions. They adhere well to non porous surfaces like vinyl, aluminum, etc. VAE copolymers are also used in packaging adhesives and laminating applications.
