Our ranges of sealants, adhesives and primers encompasses a diverse range of materials and formulations used for various applications in building and infrastructure projects. These products are designed to seal gaps, joints, and cracks; bond materials together; and prepare surfaces for subsequent treatments or applications.
Construction Sealants
Sealants in construction are materials used to fill and seal gaps, joints, and cracks in building components such as concrete, masonry, wood, metal, and glass. They provide a barrier against air, water, moisture, dust, and noise infiltration.
Common types of sealants include silicone sealants, polyurethane sealants, acrylic sealants, latex sealants, butyl rubber sealants, and asphalt sealants. Each type has specific properties such as flexibility, adhesion, durability, and compatibility with different substrates and environmental conditions.
Construction Adhesives
Adhesives in construction are substances used to bond two or more materials together by forming a strong and durable adhesive bond. They provide structural integrity, load transfer, and resistance to shear and tensile forces, allowing for the assembly of building components and construction elements.
Common types of adhesives include epoxy adhesives, polyurethane adhesives, acrylic adhesives, and, solvent-based adhesives. Each type has specific characteristics such as curing time, strength, flexibility, and compatibility with different materials.
Construction Primers
Primers in construction are coatings applied to surfaces to improve adhesion, enhance durability, and promote uniformity of subsequent coatings or treatments. They create a bonding layer between the substrate and the topcoat, ensuring proper adhesion and performance of the finish.
Common types of primers include concrete primers, metal primers, wood primers, masonry primers, and universal primers. They may be solvent-based, water-based, or epoxy-based, depending on the substrate and application requirements.
