Tapes are available in jumbo of up to 2,250mm wide to slit rolls as narrow as 4mm with or without finger lift. With vast experience in the manufacture of different products and as a customised development company, ATP are on-hand to customise your adhesive formulation.

Convert Your Adhesive with BDK

BDK offer full service project management in order to produce engineered adhesive components for a number of sectors. After an initial briefing, our team identify the right materials for your product development to ensure they are in-line with FDA and CE compliance.

Our wide range of capabilities, from multi-layer laminating to island or component placement, dosing of active ingredients to RF welding and perforation, enable us to develop a solution that meets your specification alongside tight tolerances and quality control.

Next, a sample is created using either materials sourced from one of our many established tape suppliers or from your formulation made by ATP. After rigorous testing and once our production process is validated, manufacture will commence.
