The present invention relates to an adhesive comprising of starch and nanocellulose. The adhesive has a nanocellulose concentration of between 0.1 wt % to 12.0 wt % and a starch concentration of between 01 wt % to 12.0 wt % based on the overall weight of the adhesive. The adhesive is produced by combining the nanocellulose and starch at a prescribed ratio and is applied on the surfaces of the paper product to be joined. The present invention also relates to a multi ply pulp product having at least two plies of pulp product joined using an adhesive wherein the adhesive has a nanocellulose concentration of 0.1 wt % to 12.0 wt % and a starch concentration of 0.1 wt % to 12.0 wt % based on the overall weight of the multi ply pulp product.
