Chemique Adhesives launches Polyped 1, a new one-component pedestal adhesive specially formulated for bonding raised flooring pedestals to concrete subfloors.
Accreditations for pedestal adhesive include:
-
Indoor Air Comfort Gold
-
EMICODE at EC1 Plus
-
BREEAM International
Offers Safe Working Indoor Environment
The adhesive requires no mixing, this moisture-curing polyurethane adhesive has been developed for pedestal installation and repair/refurbishment applications. The adhesive exhibits a thixotropic nature which helps to gap-fill voids between substrates, whilst maintaining the integrity of the bond.
"
We have been working on the development of a new pedestal adhesive that was safer for the user, whilst still focusing on quality,” said Stuart Francis, managing director of Chemique Adhesives. “
The newly updated formula is low hazard, meaning that the adhesive fulfills the requirement of lower emissions and contributes to a safer working indoor environment.”
Polyped 1 offers superior adhesion to galvanized and non-galvanized pedestals as well as concrete and other materials commonly used in the raised access flooring industry.
Benefits of Polyped 1 Pedestal Adhesive
-
Performance - Complies with the T15 "pedestal strength" test and the T42 "swinging bag" test. Furthermore, a standard 9kg pack of Polyped 1 will bond between 200 - 300 pedestals (dependent on pedestal design and quality of the subfloor).
-
Formulation - Single component moisture curing polyurethane adhesive forms a strong yet flexible bond for exceptional adhesion to metal substrates and concrete sub-floors
-
Coverage - Will bond between 200 - 300 pedestals per pack (Dependent on pedestal design and quality of the sub-floor)
-
Adhesive Properties - Thixotropic nature provides good gap-filling properties and works for both galvanized and non-galvanized pedestals
-
Low Hazard - Fulfils the requirement of lower emissions and contributes to a safer working indoor environment
