Ask Us About These Products:
As mentioned above, SMP is an isocyanate-free solution, eliminating extra precautionary procedures in your facility, which helps streamline processing steps while protecting workers. Additionally, it reduces the amount of VOCs being released into the air, which improves air quality.
What really makes our SMP innovative?
Curing mechanism that avoids bubbling or foaming in hot or humid environments
High elongation for versatile use among different parts of the vehicle
Other benefits include:
High elasticity to enhance durability by decreasing vibration, protecting joints from structural damage and handling temperature-related expansion or contraction
Durability
Isocyanate-free formulation to enhance sustainability and worker safety
Sustainability
Primerless capabilities to boost productivity with reduced complexities, surface preparation
error likelihood and overall costs
Productivity
Designed for glass, metal, plastic and textile substrates, our silyl modified polymer (SMP) products can act as both adhesives and sealants by offering bonding strength and high flexibility. Because they are based on a hybrid technology with strong grab, they are suitable for seam sealing, liftgate, glass bonding and EV battery applications.

• Pliogrip™ 200/208 and how it simplifies processing step
Ask Us About This Product:
Our 2K PUR solutions stand out by offering two-minute cycle times, helping you easily move numerous parts through assembly at faster speeds than alternative options, based on comparative testing.
What really makes our 2K PUR innovative?
Excellent flexibility to maintain performance during expansion and contraction
Low viscosity and gravity feed compatible to decrease waste production
High sag resistance to enable precise positioning and bonding
Other benefits include:
Excellent impact, chemical and moisture resistance once cured to increase durability, meeting or exceeding OEM requirements
Durability
Thermoplastic, lightweight bonding option comprised of 100% solids to improve sustainability, eliminating primers that have solvents
Sustainability
Excellent heat acceleration and fast cycle times to increase productivity
Productivity
Based on two-part reactive systems and used for bonding composite materials and coated metals, our Pliogrip™ two-component polyurethane (2K PUR) adhesives are designed for liftgate, SMC, composite and battery applications.
Our 2K PUR adhesives provide:
Two-Component Polyurethane
(2K PUR) Innovations
For decades, Bostik has played a prominent role in offering high-performing adhesives and sealants to the transportation industry to help you produce successful, end-use products.
Additionally, because we offer products across applications, you’re able to rely on one supplier for them, which reduces complexities that stem from having a multi-supplier approach. Our assistance throughout all steps of your manufacturing also helps assure your solutions provide optimal performance and processing efficiencies.
