Product Application
TPU hot melt adhesive film from GREEN TPU has become fully integrated into modern footwear manufacturing due to its exceptional bonding properties, outstanding elasticity, eco-friendly characteristics, and efficient processing methods. It serves not only as a key technical material for enhancing shoe quality, durability, and comfort, but also as a vital force driving the footwear industry's transformation toward automation, sustainability, and high performance. For footwear brands pursuing premium quality and environmentally conscious production, GREEN TPU hot melt adhesive film is an indispensable choice.
- Upper Lining (Composite Layers)
TPU hot melt adhesive film is widely used to laminate multiple material layers of the shoe upper, including leather-mesh composites, patchwork of colored fabrics, or reinforcement layers in the heel and toe box. Its seamless bonding replaces traditional stitching, resulting in a cleaner, more modern aesthetic while reducing weight and improving fit. The high elasticity and adhesion ensure long-lasting performance even under repeated flexing. - Upper-to-Sole Bonding (Welting)
In critical applications like bonding the upper to the midsole or outsole (rubber, EVA, PU, or similar), GREEN TPU film delivers exceptionally high bonding strength. It maintains integrity under prolonged bending, impact, and repeated sole flexing, significantly reducing the risk of adhesive failure. Its elastic properties ensure a secure, durable interface over the lifetime of the shoe. - Seamless Waterproof Shoe Manufacturing
For waterproof footwear, a waterproof membrane is bonded to the upper fabric using GREEN TPU hot melt adhesive film. Through heat pressing, the adhesive film melts and forms a strong bond while simultaneously sealing the seams. This provides reliable waterproof performance without additional coatings or adhesives. - Processing Flow
Typical manufacturing steps include material preparation, positioning the adhesive film between materials, heating with hot presses or infrared equipment, applying controlled pressure to achieve uniform bonding, and cooling to set the adhesive. Process parameters such as melting point, activation temperature, and applied pressure must be optimized based on the material and equipment to achieve the best results.
