Here at Hobbytec, we care about crafting. So much so, that not only do we stock a range of quality hot melt crafting products, we aim to inspire you to make your own hot melt creations, too.
Add some colour to your craft
Craft from scratch
Our coloured glue sticks and glitter glue are so good in fact, that they can be used solely with our craft glue guns to make a stunning range of art, decorations and crafts from scratch, as well as covering traditional bonding and sealing.
Easy to use
Built to last
Unlike cheaper alternatives, our craft glue guns are easy to use, and they deliver professional results across a range of applications. They are built to last, can stand continued use, and there’s more good news: they are also covered by a 1-year warranty.
40+ years’ experience
We know our stuff
And you can trust us to know about quality: as a registered trademark of Power Adhesives Ltd., HobbyTec has over 40 years’ experience offering specialist knowledge on all aspects of commercial gluing applications. Which means that we know our stuff.

The main difference is the amount of glue output. Our 7mm craft gun is smaller in design and perfect for crafters at all levels. But if you need a gun that delivers more glue, our 12mm craft guns are just the thing. Ideal for larger projects or frequent crafting, they also feature an adjustable trigger for exceptional comfort.
Low melt glue is best for heat sensitive materials such as balloons, polystyrene, foams, films and softer plastics. The lower heat also means that the glue runs thicker, which is perfect for forming raised dots for decoration.

Never try and remove a part-melted glue stick from your gun. If the stick is taken out, molten glue can come out of the mechanism and cause serious damage to the gun. We recommend using a Glue Saver to purge the remaining glue in the gun and create up to 4 new 12mm sticks that can be used later.
