Bostik’s Marine Adhesive
& Sealant technologies
For marine manufacturers, bonding and sealing solutions play a key role in the end-use application’s overall durability and aesthetics while also impacting production efficiencies and environmental footprint. That’s why it’s important for solutions provide:
Chemical, temperature and UV resistance
Elasticity and waterproofing
Accurate positioning before curing
Sound and vibration damping
Lightweight bonding
Bostik’s portfolio, which includes silyl modified polymer (SMP), methyl methacrylate, solvent-based, hot melt and instant bonding technologies, makes that easy to accomplish.
