Commitment to quality
Quality control from formulation to final dispatch.
The Glue Company combines process control, in-line checks and laboratory testing to maintain repeatability across industrial adhesive batches.
Control chain
Control begins before production starts.
The sequence connects supplier controls, controlled processing and final testing without treating quality as a separate step.
- 01
Incoming materials
Raw-material specifications and supplier controls establish the starting condition for each batch.
- 02
Controlled processing
DCS-controlled processing supports repeatable dosing and processing through the production sequence.
- 03
In-line checks
Key properties can be monitored while a batch is in progress, before it moves to release review.
- 04
Final testing
Finished products are evaluated against internal specifications and, where applicable, customer-approved parameters.
- 05
Release and dispatch
Production and quality records carry the reviewed batch through release and final dispatch.
Measured properties
Properties measured for the relevant formulation.
The applicable test method, range and acceptance criteria depend on the product grade and intended application.
- Bond strength
- Assessed where the finished join is relevant to the grade and application.
- Viscosity
- Checked for the flow and application behaviour required by the formulation.
- Solids content
- Used to monitor the formulation's material balance.
- pH
- Measured where it is relevant to formulation control.
- Shelf-life stability
- Considered against the published storage expectations for the applicable grade.
Traceability and development
Batch records connect production, testing and release.
Production and quality records support traceability through manufacturing. Test results and application feedback also inform formulation refinement and customised-product evaluation.
