VINNAPAS ® VAE –
THE HIGH-PERFORMANCE SOLUTION
Success in the adhesives market often depends on choosing the right
binder. VINNAPAS® vinyl acetate-ethylene (VAE) technology offers outstanding
benefits in terms of performance, safety and versatility.

VINNAPAS® VAE dispersions are water- Ethylene contributes permanent flexibility Diverse Applications
