Adhesive Backing Cards for Lateral Flow Assays

  • High Performance
  • Short Lead Times
  • Lower Cost

Custom-Formulated Lateral Flow Backing Card Adhesive

Hi-tech products manufactures HT-187, a high quality, competitively-priced acrylic pressure sensitive adhesive for IVD backing cards. Specifically engineered for in vitro test strips and lateral flow devices. This custom formulated adhesive is compatible with all types of membranes, wicking material, conjugated pads and filter media. HT-187 is identical to GL-187. HT-187 is widely used in both the US and International markets for lateral flow backing card manufacturing.

Benefits of Hi-Tech Products HT-187
IVD Backing Card Adhesive

  • Thin, firm, and low outgassing
  • Medical grade solvent-free acrylic adhesive
  • Formulated for sustained contact with human skin.  Assessed by an independent bio-medical laboratory following ISO-10993 guidelines for skin contact properties.
  • Manufactured with 2 PET Liners. Typical IVD Backing Card Glues have a single Paper Liner, which generate paper particulate on cut edges
  • Consistent in thickness.  Cut edges are much cleaner with PET Liners. Thickness variability inherent to Paper (pulp)  Based Liners
  • Consistent coatings. Coating inconsistencies are inherent in Paper Based Liners
  • Low residue chemical activity (inert)
  • Good adhesion to a wide range of surfaces
  • Excellent cohesive strength
  • Sterilizable by all methods including gamma, ETO, autoclave and e-Beam.
  • 2 Year Shelf Life
  • Product is US Sourced ; lead time is 2-4 weeks. (Competitive Products are 16-24 weeks minimum due to Europe and Asia logistical Issues)
  • With minimal Forecast, lead time from Placement of Orders to shipment of Finished Product can be as low as 1-3 weeks.
