Put in the Work, Reap the Rewards: Adhesive Mixing Technicians Wanted.


Ready for a Adhesive Mixing Technician job where you're seen, supported, and appreciated? We're hiring people who make a real impact behind the scenes - because nothing runs without a strong team.


A growing specialty manufacturing organization is seeking a detail-driven Adhesive Mixing Technician to support coating and lamination operations on first shift. This temp-to-hire opportunity is ideal for a mechanically inclined technician who thrives in hands-on production environments, follows formulas with precision, and understands the importance of accuracy, safety, and consistency in adhesive and coating processes.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out


This role offers steady first-shift hours, weekly pay, and the opportunity to grow into a long-term position within a specialized manufacturing environment. Employees have access to a comprehensive benefits package that includes medical, dental, vision, and life insurance, a 401(k) retirement plan, short-term disability coverage, employee discounts, and additional benefits designed to support both financial security and career growth.


Responsibilities:

• Organize and maintain inventory of raw materials and finished coating products


• Assist with material requests to ensure uninterrupted production


• Follow written formulas and work instructions with strict accuracy


• Complete batch records documenting all mixing activity


• Lift, weigh, and measure powders and liquids to produce solvent-based adhesives and coatings


• Maintain the cleanliness of mixers, pumps, dispensers, scales, lines, and mixing areas


• Support coater operation and equipment cleaning as needed


• Monitor equipment controls, safety guards, and stops; report issues immediately


• Notify engineering or supervision of any process or equipment concerns


• Utilize the MRP system to access instructions and record production data, scrap, and run time


• Complete additional duties as assigned

You take initiative. You drive results.

Here's what we're looking for.

• Minimum age of 18 and ability to pass pre-employment reading and ruler assessments


• Mechanical aptitude and at least 6 months of experience with lamination, coating, press, or similar machinery


• Prior experience mixing adhesives, inks, or coatings required


• Ability to accurately measure to 1/16 of an inch using a ruler or tape measure


• Strong math skills involving whole numbers, fractions, and decimals


• Physically capable of lifting up to 65 pounds


• Ability to stand, walk, bend, reach, squat, kneel, and lift throughout the entire shift


• Ability to tolerate chemicals and occasional strong odors
