At Applied Molecules, we know you’re always looking for ways to make your lamination projects safer, stronger, and more efficient. That’s why we’re putting the spotlight on AM164 Wet and Dry Nip Laminating Adhesive—a proven solution that delivers everything you need, from unbeatable bond strength to game-changing safety.
Most importantly, AM164 passes rigorous migration testing with no detectable materials, making it a top choice for applications where safety is non-negotiable. Here’s why AM164 continues to be the adhesive you can trust for your toughest challenges.
Leading with Safety: Passes Migration Testing
When you’re producing food packaging, medical devices, or consumer goods, safety isn’t just a checkbox—it’s everything. You need an adhesive that meets the strictest standards without cutting corners on performance. AM164 stands out here, having passed stringent migration testing with no detectable materials.

This means it’s safe for applications where even the slightest transfer of adhesive components could compromise product quality or end-user health. Whether you’re laminating for food-safe packaging or creating medical-grade products, AM164 gives you confidence that your projects meet regulatory demands and protect your customers.
Fits Your Process Like a Glove
Your production line is built for speed and precision, and AM164 is designed to keep up. Whether you rely on wet or dry nip lamination, this adhesive adapts to your setup. Wet nip offers instant bonding for fast-paced jobs, while dry nip delivers precision with curing in seconds. No need to overhaul your equipment or rethink your workflow—AM164 works with you, ensuring consistent, high-quality results every time.
Precision Application With Flexo
Getting adhesive application just right is key to strong bonds and efficient production. AM164 is optimized for Flexo application, delivering uniform coatings with pinpoint accuracy. This minimizes waste and ensures reliable adhesion, even on challenging substrates like polypropylene overlaminates. With Flexo, AM164 supports your high-speed lines, helping you meet tight deadlines without sacrificing quality.
Fast Curing With LED or UV
Time matters, and AM164 saves you plenty. This adhesive cures in seconds under LED (visible light) or UV systems, giving you flexibility to use your existing equipment. LED curing is a standout, offering energy efficiency and compatibility with modern setups.
Whether you’re laminating for packaging or industrial applications, AM164’s rapid cure time keeps your production moving and your projects on schedule.
Low Odor, High Comfort
A pleasant work environment makes a big difference, and AM164’s low-odor formulation delivers. Say goodbye to the harsh chemical smells of traditional adhesives. This is especially valuable for food packaging, where off-gassing could affect product quality or customer perception. AM164 lets you maintain a cleaner, more sustainable operation while keeping your team happy.
Tough Bonds for Tough Substrates
Some substrates—like untreated polyethylene, digitally printed materials, composites, or decorative woods—can be a nightmare to bond. AM164 makes it look easy, creating destructive bonds so strong that the substrate fails before the adhesive does. Whether you’re crafting durable furniture laminates, automotive parts, or high-traffic flooring, AM164 ensures your products stand up to wear, stress, and tough conditions.

Why AM164 Stands Out
AM164 is more than an adhesive—it’s a partner in your success. Its migration testing success means you can trust it for safety-critical applications. Its flexibility with wet or dry nip lamination and Flexo application fits your process perfectly. Its fast LED or UV curing keeps your line humming, and its low-odor formula improves your workplace. Plus, its ability to conquer tough substrates like untreated polyethylene or polypropylene overlaminates guarantees long-lasting performance.
For manufacturers and converters, AM164 is the reliable choice that checks all the boxes: safety, strength, and efficiency.
