BOSTIK: Engineering and Repair Adhesives for the Marine Industry
Bostik has launched a range of products within its engineering adhesives portfolio, Born2Bond™, to support the marine industry in delivering sustainable repairs and manufacturing. The new products come as boating manufacturers are switching from mechanical fasteners to adhesives and sealants to reduce overall boat weight, decrease material usage, further durability, and encourage more sustainable assembly processes.
The Born2Bond™ Ultra one-part, Structural two-part, and Light Lock dual-cure (light and surface) cyanoacrylate adhesives enable deck repair without the need to dismantle the deck area. The solution forms a part of Born2Bond’s instant adhesives range that features fast-curing and high-strength products with optimum moisture-, humidity-, and chemical-resistant qualities, making them ideal for marine assembly and repairs. They are suitable for multiple substrates including metal, wood, leather, rubber, plastic composites, and alloys.
