Reducing Adhesive Waste by 70% with Xemex

Reducing Adhesive Waste by 70% with Xemex

How One Manufacturer Transformed Their Mixing Process

Xemex isn’t just another static mixer. It’s a leap forward in adhesive mixing efficiency—and one global electronics manufacturer proved it. Faced with rising material costs and inconsistent mixing performance, their team needed a solution that could deliver reliable quality and cut down waste.

After switching to Xemex, the results were measurable and fast. Within weeks, the company saw a 70% reduction in adhesive waste, all without changing existing materials or application equipment.

The Challenge: Waste and Inconsistency

Before implementing Xemex, the manufacturer was using standard helical mixers that often over-consumed adhesive and left room for human error. Because of this, production runs required more material and manual adjustments, leading to:

  • Frequent recalibrations of dispensing systems
  • Increased material spend
  • Higher rejection rates due to poor mixing

The inefficiencies weren’t just frustrating—they were expensive.

The Solution: Integrating Re Mixers

Re Mixers offered a streamlined solution. Its revolutionary folding design provided more thorough mixing in half the space. Installation required no process overhaul, only replacing the old mixer cartridges.

Top advantages of Xemex integration:

01

Compact profile that fits existing systems

02

Over 1,500 striations after 3 elements (vs. 16 in traditional mixers)

03

Lower backpressure and minimal adhesive retention

The manufacturer trained their teams in less than a day and immediately noticed a sharper output curve.

Results: Efficiency and Savings

By Month 2 of implementation, the company had documented:

  • 70% less adhesive waste
  • 35% faster cycle times
  • Over $60,000 saved in material costs in the first quarter

“Switching to Xemex was the simplest change we made—and it produced the biggest impact on our bottom line.”

— Operations Director, Global Electronics Manufacturer
What’s Next?

The manufacturer now uses the Xemex system as a baseline for all new adhesive applications. The reduced waste isn’t just a cost benefit—it also aligns with their sustainability goals.

If you’re exploring ways to improve mixing precision, reduce environmental impact, and cut unnecessary spend, Xemex could be your next best move.
