We are expanding our range of eco-responsible adhesive tapes with the new 3M™ VHB™ LVO tapes — an innovative bonding solution that combines high performance with environmental responsibility !
Developed to meet the strictest standards, these tapes offer outstanding technical performance while addressing today’s environmental and health requirements.
why choose these assembly adhesive tapes ?
For over 40 years, 3M™ VHB™ tapes have been among our flagship products thanks to their exceptional strength and reliability.
Now, thanks to a cutting-edge manufacturing technology, the new 3M™ VHB™ LVO version offers all these advantages with a lower environmental impact.
Here are the key technical features:
- Excellente adhesion on low surface energy materials
3M™ VHB™ LVO tapes are specially designed for strong bonding on challenging materials like polypropylene and polystyrene. Ideal for broadening design and assembly possibilities, even in demanding environments.
- High resistance to temperature and humidity
Withstand temperatures up to 120°C, making them suitable for applications such as display bonding in the automotive sector.
- Outstanding peel and shear strength
Ensures long-term durability under stress and environmental constraints
- Quick and easy application
Simplifies assembly processes and reduces production costs
- No light leakage
The black core of the 3M™ VHB™ LVO tape blocks light transmission, making it ideal for applications like automotive display bonding.
tapes designed with ecology in mind
- Formulated for a lower environmental impact
Designed for use in sensitive environments, this tape features reduced emissions of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs). It contains up to 85% fewer VOCs compared to traditional acrylic foam tapes (tested according to VDA 278), while maintaining minimal fogging. Its performance has been rigorously validated by independent laboratories.
- Low odor
Specifically engineered for low-odor emissions, this tape marks a breakthrough in adhesive technology. It delivers consistently high-level performance, third-party tested in accordance with the VDA 270 method.
- FDA-compliant for indirect food contact
For the first time in the history of 3M™ VHB™ tapes, this model is certified for indirect food contact under FDA regulation 21 CFR 175.105. This makes it a safe choice for applications that must meet strict health and hygiene standards.
typical applications
Designed to meet customer demand for low-odor adhesives in indoor environments, these tapes are ideal for a wide range of applications — including, but not limited to:
-
Display bonding and interior component assembly in automotive and transportation
-
Mounting of panels and decorative trims in furniture manufacturing
-
Bonding of components in household appliances
-
Assembly of touchscreens and display frames in the electronics industry
-
Assembly and packaging in the food processing industry, with compliance to FDA regulations
Surface compatibility
Perfectly suited for low surface energy (LSE) substrates such as plastics, glass, polypropylene, and polystyrene, as well as medium and high surface energy materials.
3M™ VHB™ LVO tapes are black synthetic rubber-based acrylic foam adhesives, designed for durable and efficient bonding applications.
The available product references include:
-
3M™ VHB™ LVO-060BF
-
3M™ VHB™ LVO-110BF
-
3M™ VHB™ LVO-160BF
corresponding to thicknesses of 0.6 mm, 1.1 mm, and 1.6 mm respectively.
Each reference offers a balance between flexibility, adhesion strength, and thermal resistance, making them ideal for bonding to a wide range of substrates including plastics, glass, polypropylene, polystyrene, and other low to high surface energy materials.
Whether you’re assembling displays, fixing interior components, or working in sensitive environments such as automotive interiors or food processing areas, these tapes provide a clean, low-emission solution without compromising performance.
