If you are in the book binding business, case board warp is something you are probably familiar with. If you work with case board, you may have experienced warp issues. We recently visited with a case-making customer that was experiencing case board warp. Like many who have been in a similar situation, this customer looked to their board and glue suppliers as resources for understanding why case board warps.

We’re often asked about the shelf life of our glue, as natural adhesives have an expiration date.  

Gelatin glue can last a year, but that depends on proper storage. In fact, storage plays a significant role in your adhesive and your entire production performance. 

We get a lot of questions when it comes to preventing board warp in the book binding and printing industry. Printing and binding are a lot like cooking, and external factors like excess heat and humidity can harm your final product.
