FAQs
Are these glue sticks safe for children?

Can I use this on wood or metal?
No, this adhesive is specifically formulated for paper and cardboard.
Is the glue permanent?
It provides a strong, reliable hold for paper crafts and document mounting, but it is not intended for industrial-strength permanent bonding.
How should I store them to keep them fresh?
Store them in a cool, dry place with the caps tightly secured to prevent the adhesive from drying out.
What does the CE mark signify?
The CE mark indicates that the product meets the safety, health, and environmental protection requirements for products sold within the European Economic Area.
Troubleshooting
Glue is dry or difficult to spread
The glue may have been left uncapped. Try scraping off the top thin layer of dried glue to reach the moist product underneath.
Paper is peeling at the edges
Ensure that the glue was applied all the way to the edges of the paper and apply light pressure for a few seconds to set the bond.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To use, remove the cap and twist the base to expose the required amount of adhesive. Apply directly to the paper or cardboard surface with a light, even pressure. When finished, ensure the cap is pressed firmly onto the tube until it clicks or seats securely; this prevents the adhesive from drying out. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the glue. If the glue becomes stuck on surfaces, a damp cloth or warm water is usually sufficient to remove residue effectively.
