Understanding Sealant Products: Expertise Beyond Application

Choosing the right sealant is as critical as applying it correctly. At Glastonn, our expertise isn't just in flawless application; it's in understanding the intricate science behind each sealant chemistry. We navigate the vast market to ensure your project benefits from the optimal product, delivering superior performance, durability, and compliance.

We work with a comprehensive range of high-performance sealants, including:

Silicone Sealants: The All-Rounder for Durability

Properties: Renowned for exceptional resistance to water, UV rays, and extreme temperatures. They remain flexible, resist mold and mildew, and offer excellent adhesion to glass, metal, concrete, and most common building materials. Perfect for dynamic joints with significant movement.

Why we use them: Our go-to for bathrooms, kitchens, showers, and exterior glazing, where their longevity and resistance to harsh elements ensure lasting protection and a pristine finish.

Polyurethane (PU) Sealants: Strength Meets Flexibility

Properties: Incredibly tough, flexible, and highly abrasion-resistant. They boast strong adhesion and offer superior resistance to water, oil, grease, mold, and fungus. Available in low-VOC formulations, they are ideal for demanding environments.

Why we use them: Indispensable for high-traffic areas like floors and pavements, and critical for structural bonding where high load capacity and tear resistance are paramount. Their versatility makes them a rapidly growing choice for many applications.

Acrylic Sealants: Paintable & Economical for Interior Finishes

Properties: Cost-effective and, crucially, paintable, making them ideal for seamless integration with interior finishes. They offer good adhesion but are less flexible than silicone or PU.

Why we use them: Best suited for general-purpose indoor gaps, cracks, and interior frame perimeters where minimal movement is expected. We ensure precise application for a smooth, paint-ready surface.

Hybrid Polymer Sealants: The Best of Both Worlds

Properties: These advanced formulations combine the superior qualities of both silicone and polyurethane, offering high performance, excellent flexibility, and the advantage of being paintable.

Why we use them: Highly versatile for a wide range of construction joints, facades, and window/door installations. Their balanced properties make them an increasingly popular choice for complex projects demanding both flexibility and paintability.

Polysulphide Sealants: High-Performance for Harsh Conditions

Properties: Distinguished by their exceptional elasticity, long-term durability, and robust resistance to harsh environmental conditions and chemicals.

Why we use them: Essential for critical applications such as large expansion joints in concrete, roofing, building envelopes, and below-grade waterproofing where extreme resilience is required..

Our Commitment to Innovation & Sustainability

The sealant market is constantly evolving, with a strong emphasis on low-VOC (Volatile Organic Compound), green, and sustainable solutions. We prioritize these advanced products to ensure:

Healthier Environments: Minimizing harmful emissions for safer indoor air quality in your homes and workplaces.
