Adhesive tape solutions for transportation


Avery Dennison offers a variety of tape and adhesive solutions for the transportation and recreational vehicle industries.

A broad portfolio of tapes addressing many truck, bus and recreational vehicle design challenges

Our products feature adhesives and constructions that can be tailored to the needs of a wide range of applications and trends, including the following:

  • Lightweighting — Tapes are an alternative to heavier, mechanical fastening products.

  • Heat resistance — The proliferation of vehicle electronics underscores the need for heat management solutions. Our adhesives work across a wide range of temperatures.

  • Noise, vibration & harshness (NVH) — Various tape solutions can help reduce noise, vibration and harshness.

  • Chemical and UV resistance — Our portfolio includes adhesives engineered to resist mold, bacteria, yellowing and other consequences of chemical and ultraviolet light exposure. 

  • LSE bonding —  Our wide range of adhesives are engineered for the bonding challenges of low-surface-energy substrates such as polypropylene (PP), high density polyethylene (HDPE) and low density polyethylene (LDPE).
