Acoustic Sealant VT-FAS
Product Characteristics
VT-FAS is a high performance, professional quality, easy to use sealant and adhesive. Based on an innovative new Inert Polymer Technology it is suitable for a wide variety of building trade applications. Including decorating, flooring, joinery, plumbing, tiling, fire and sound sealing around windows and doors. This product outperforms conventional sanitary silicones, MSP’s, butyl & acrylic based products as a sealant and adhesive – the only sealant free from dangerous emissions.
Product Applications
VT-FAS is a nonreactive environmentally friendly chemistry that ensures compatibility with most building materials and has the unique property of moving dynamically to accommodate the natural or unexpected movements of sealed/bonded joints within a building, for long lasting performance.
VT-FAS eliminates the selection choices that need to be made with conventional sealants and adhesives. Choosing a product for a building application can be confusing especially as there are a wide number of products available and within those products a variety of grades, with variations in properties to suit the substrate or application.
VT-FAS overcomes this by offering the tradesman one solution for all internal building applications.
