ADHESIVE IN THE BUILDING INDUSTRY
New construction techniques, in addition to recent regulations, are leading construction professionals to use adhesive elements more and more frequently.
For example, adhesive tape is widely used in the building of timber-frame houses as their installation avoids the creation of gaps in the waterproofing. Unlike screws or staples, adhesive tapes maintain a continuous fixing and sealing.
With regard to insulation, new thermal regulations such as RT 2020 require better energy performance from buildings and therefore the use of additional insulation techniques.
Adhesive is therefore ideal for perfecting the insulation of a building. Another advantage is the speed of installation. Adhesive does not require any drying time and therefore saves precious time on the building site.
USES OF ADHESIVE TAPE IN THE BUILDING INDUSTRY
Because of their intrinsic characteristics, adhesive tapes have many advantages and are therefore widely used in the construction sector.
They can be used to join insulation panels, along with waterproofing foam, to fix floor coverings or to fix skirting boards or wood planks.
Depending on the type of surface, the adhesive has a certain weight to ensure maximum adhesion (rough walls, concrete, etc.). Its quick and easy application provides a clean and efficient result. The adhesive tape used in the construction industry is also solvent and odour free, for greater environmental friendliness and comfort in the home.
Made-to-measure, resistant and easy to use, the adhesive proposed by Alsace Technique Etiquetage meets all the constraints of the building industry.
LABELS FOR THE CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY
Adhesives used in the construction industry must be able to withstand extreme conditions such as bad weather and/or physical forces. They meet specific needs and have distinct applications.
For example, extreme strength bonding adhesives are designed to withstand enormous pressure, cleaning agents, frost or UV light. They can even be applied to rusty surfaces.
The bonding must also remain effective on materials specific to the construction industry, such as labels on wood or concrete. These materials must withstand the hazards of outdoor storage (dust, rain, wind, etc.).
ADHESIVES IN HOME AUTOMATION
Home automation is a rapidly expanding market. Internet connected devices are now widely used in homes. Here again, custom-made adhesives are present. They are used in the design of these new intelligent devices..
Whether it is automated equipment relating to air conditioning, heating, ventilation, lighting or even doors and sashes, Alsace Techniques Etiquetage designs adhesive solutions adapted to all home automation design needs.
