H.B. FULLER CONTINUES TO DISRUPT THE WINDOW SEALANT MARKET

Buildings consume 41% of U.S. energy and new technologies are necessary to improve window efficiencies. In the U.S. insulating glass industry, H.B. Fuller’s Ködispace 4SG is having a big impact in meeting tough new goals. “We sell in over 40 countries,” says Paul McHale, Director, Americas Glass for H.B. Fuller, “and Ködispace 4SG leads the way. It’s been a big seller in Europe and is now changing the U.S. market.” A reactive thermoplastic spacer system used for insulating glass, Ködispace 4SG bonds both mechanically and chemically to the glass and a secondary silicone sealant. It eliminates spacer migration, is invisible between glass and frame, and is more esthetically pleasing than many competing products. Ködispace 4SG is also pulling along the company’s other insulating glass (IG) sealants and technologies, including the Intercept® line, H.B. Fuller’s state-of-the-art window sealant system. “Intercept now incorporates IsoMelt DM15, a desiccant sealant developed in Germany and rolled out last year,” says McHale. “It’s the highest drying capacity desiccating matrix in the industry and has been a huge success. The feedback we’re hearing from customers is they’re loving the cost savings and performance advantages it provides.”. <a href="https://medium.com/@bobhornung/h-b-fuller-continues-to-disrupt-the-window-sealant-market-in-a-good-way-704bf348a2f1">Read More</a>
