French term or phrase: Dos carré collé PUR

In a table headed "Atelier de façonnage intégré, comprenant notamment :",

this:

"plieuses --> 78 avec collage 1er groupe
--> 4 points de colle
--> toutes poches en 6/6/couteau

Chaine d’emboitage pour Numérique

--> ***Dos carré collé PUR***"

"Dos" appears to be spine, apart from that, I don't know too far. "PUR"?

perfect binding using (reactive) polyurethane

Explanation:
also sometimes written 'polyurethane resin'. PUR by itself is the standard abbreviation for polyurethane.

(I was rather thrown by the fact it's sometime written P.U.R. as if it stands for a three letter acronym, but this doesn't seem to be the case.)

"Brochure dos carré
peut être réalisée en dos carré collé PUR (colle polyuréthane plus résistante que le dos carré collé traditionnel)"

"PUR puts the lock on a wide range of print products
For some printers, polyurethane reactive adhesive (PUR) has replaced EVA as the go-to adhesive of choice for perfect binding."
