We’ve all been there. You've prepped your materials, your machinery is humming, and then your glue sets before you've even had a chance to properly bond. The project must be scrapped and started again. It's a common but costly headache for anyone who has worked with glue. However, it’s possible to avoid the frustration and get ahead of the cause of your glue setting too quickly.

Gelatin glue, also known as protein glue, is a staple in many industries, including woodworking, bookbinding, and packaging. It’s prized for its strong bonding capabilities, non-toxic nature, and eco-friendly composition.

If you want to get the most out of your glue, the temperature is a topic you should pay attention to. You'd be surprised how many application and equipment issues can be resolved by simply adjusting the temperature of your glue. 

If you make rigid boxes, chances are you have dealt with turn-ins that have popped open. Annoying. We know!
