tesa adhesive tapes hold firm in the electronic industry
Whether it’s a cell phone, PDA, digital camera, or LCD screen – every one of these cutting-edge wonders of technology may contain up to 30 different tesa products.
In keeping with the industry’s driving trend toward smaller and lighter devices, both electronic components and many design elements are no longer affixed by means of screws, but are instead affixed in place using precision-punched special tapes.

Considerable advantages
In the production of electronic devices, adhesive tapes offer big advantages over liquid glues. They guarantee an even adhesion surface even on complex geometric shapes and can be handled neatly, without any additional effort spent on cleaning up residue or seepage.
Even in the smallest applications, they add hardly any thickness, simplify installation, and represent dependable replacements for mechanical fixatives such as screws and clamps.
tesa offers its customers an extensive selection of adhesive tapes delivered in roll form to specific businesses that use them for further manufacturing. It is here that the tape or film is punched into complex geometric shapes precisely tailored to the parts that are to be affixed.

Solutions for every application
The tesa assortment includes ultra thin adhesive tapes just 30 µm thick for when the space between components has to be kept to a minimum. Thicker film-type tapes guarantee dependable adhesion even if the device is heated by direct sunlight. Extra-strong tapes enable a firm hold on rough surfaces and make it possible to stick different combinations of materials together.
In close cooperation with its clients, tesa is always at work on further developing its portfolio of adhesive tapes in order to always stay one step ahead of the requirements of the market. One innovation that will have far-reaching impact comes in the form of products made from tesa® heat-activated film (HAF). These products adhere only after the application of heat and are used for unusual adhesion situations, such as when metal and plastic are to be adhered together or only very narrow surfaces are available for adhesion.
