Building components must be lighter, stronger, and efficiently manufactured. Innovative materials can enable these outcomes, provide enhanced performance and aesthetics, and sway a construction project’s overall carbon footprint.
Across industries, Henkel is working for the good of generations. From the building industry and beyond, Henkel is making a positive impact on the climate, circularity, and safety.
Sandwich panel lamination and rolled goods play a central role in the building industry, especially in thermal and acoustic insulation. Applications include insulated or decorative panels, and insulation for cavity walls, loft conversion, partition walls, floors, ceilings, and pipe wrappings.
Adhesives for roofing components play a vital role in creating durable, weather-resistant, and secure products. The selection of the appropriate adhesive depends on the specific roofing application, the substrate materials, the manufacturing process, environmental conditions and performance requirements of the component.
A wide range of solutions work within window manufacturing based on different adhesive technologies. For example, wooden window bonding, aluminum window assembly, as well as PVC window profile wrapping.
Adhesive solutions help enhance durable and stable door constructions required to withstand all weather conditions. Adhesive applications include flat lamination and profile wrapping of core materials.
TECHNOMELT® PUR, a high-performing polyurethane, is the first choice when maximum bond strength is needed. Bondings with TECHNOMELT® PUR are resistant to humidity, heat, cold, oil, and many solvents and maintain strength, form, and function over time.
Polyurethane is an advanced thermoset polymeric composition with unique versatility. The adhesives bond well to a large variety of materials and are used where ease of use, reliability, and durability are required. With regards to Building Components, our LOCTITE® UK (2 component) and LOCTITE® UR (1 component) product solutions deliver highest performance for the construction of light-weight sandwich panels.
Non-reactive hotmelts are frequently used for profile wrapping, flat lamination, assembly and sealing processes. These thermoplastic hotmelts offer clean processing, coupled with high machine speeds, fast setting, and excellent aging behavior and are a first choice for building components.
Water-based adhesives and emulsions, are used across many applications, from flat lamination over to assembly.
