HIGH STRENGTH ADHESIVE TAPES HELP CONSTRUCT BUILDINGS OF THE FUTURE
3M’s range of VHB tapes is advancing modern construction methods by enabling the fast and cost effective bonding of a full range of building materials. The VHB adhesive tapes range has been specifically designed for speed and performance, and is being used by contractors across the globe to construct some of the world’s most exciting buildings. VHB tapes are ideal for construction projects when time is limited and several different building materials must be joined together invisibly and reliably. The tapes can be used for a wide range of applications including internal and external cladding, glazing, curtain walling, door hanging and the installation of solar energy and resin filled glass. Wood, aluminium, glass and PVC can be bonded together using the tapes, creating a seamless finish in even the most challenging build environments. The tapes provide an instant bond without compromising durability or performance. VHB tapes can resist prolonged sunlight exposure and extreme temperatures, absorb shock, and withstand high winds, vibration, thermal expansion and contraction. To improve construction efficiency, VHB tapes bond with high holding strength to replace screws, rivets, welds and silicones for both static and dynamic loads. For buildings where cleanliness and hygiene are important, such as sports and health facilities, the tapes produce a durable seal between surfaces to keep out dirt, water and cleaning chemicals.
