Sealing compounds

Waterproofing compounds and sealants are essential in surface engineering to seal joints, gaps and other cavities to prevent the ingress of moisture, dirt or other substances. These materials are used in various applications, from construction and renovation work to industrial manufacturing processes, to ensure a durable seal and protective layer.

One- or two-component sealants offer different options for different requirements. One-component sealants are ready to use and do not require mixing before use, making them particularly easy to apply. They cure through humidity or chemical reaction and form a flexible sealing layer that can adapt to the movements of the adjacent materials.

Two-component sealants consist of two separate components that must be mixed before use. These often offer improved performance and durability compared to single component sealants and can be used for more demanding applications. Mixing the components triggers a chemical reaction that leads to rapid curing and the formation of a solid sealing layer.

Sealing compounds and sealants can be used for various applications, including sealing joints between building components, grouting tiles, sealing connection points or filling gaps and cavities. They are available in various formulations, including silicones, polyurethanes, acrylates or hybrid sealants, each with different properties and areas of application.

The correct selection and application of sealing compounds and sealants can permanently protect surfaces from moisture, dirt and other environmental influences. They help to extend the service life of building components, improve the energy efficiency of buildings and increase the quality of end products.
