Project Requirements

A high-performance joint sealant with good flexibility and chemical resistance was required to seal 10-30 mm wide floor joints. The Product also had to be suitable for continuous daily exposure to vehicles and foot traffic.

Challenges

  • A Joint sealant suitable for floor joints between 10-30mm wide.
  • After application, a quick drying time was essential to allow other trades to continue working in the area.
