Comparison
Adhesive bonding vs. heat sealing
Both produce seams without stitching. They differ in how the bond is formed and what materials they can be applied to.
Adhesive bonding
Heat sealing
Mechanism
Chemical adhesive cures between surfaces.
Heat melts and fuses compatible materials.
Materials
Wide range of shells, linings, membranes.
Thermoplastic-compatible only.
Control
Adhesive chemistry tuned to end use.
Heat and pressure profile drives the result.
Seam integrity
Cured bond across the seam overlap.
Depends on base-material melt behaviour.
Recommendation
DSEAMS uses proprietary adhesive chemistry — including bio-based options — to control bond characteristics precisely across diverse materials and end uses.
