Raj Traders is a wholesale supplier of Saresh Glue Flakes to bookbinders, wood product manufacturers, and industrial adhesive users across India. Saresh Glue (also known as hide glue or animal glue) is a traditional industrial adhesive derived from animal protein, prized for its strong bonding, reversibility, and compatibility with porous surfaces. We supply in bulk with PAN India delivery.

About this Product

Saresh Glue Flakes is a type of protein-based adhesive made from processed animal hides and bones. It is available as dry flakes or pearls that are dissolved in hot water to form a working adhesive. It has been used for centuries in bookbinding, woodworking, and furniture making due to its excellent adhesion to porous surfaces, reversibility (joints can be opened with heat or moisture), and non-toxic nature. In India, it remains the preferred adhesive for traditional bookbinding and certain woodworking applications.

FAQs

Saresh Glue Flakes are soaked in cold water for 30–60 minutes, then gently heated to 55–65°C in a double boiler (never direct heat) until fully dissolved. The working viscosity is adjusted with water. Use immediately — do not overheat or boil.
Bloom strength measures the gel strength of the glue — higher Bloom means stronger gel and stronger joints. For bookbinding, 150–200g Bloom is typical. For fine woodworking and instrument making, 250–300g Bloom is preferred. Please specify your application for the right grade.
No. Saresh / hide glue is reversible — it softens with heat and moisture. This is an advantage in certain applications (allows repair) but means it is not suitable for exterior or high-humidity applications.
