Adhesives coating
Adhesives coating
Adhesives coating is any process of applying glue (adhesive) to a surface, except for adhesive coating and lamination used in printing.
Solvent consumption threshold
If the total annual solvent consumption of an installation performing a adhesives coating is greater than 5 t/year, the installation is subject to the requirements of the VOC Regulation and classified as a VOC operator.
Based on the total annual solvent consumption, VOC operators are classified as small or medium installations; the prescribed emission limit values for these installations depend on this classification and are listed in Annex 5 of the VOC Regulation.
