As leaders of industrial adhesives in the UK, Apollo Adhesives has developed a revolutionary two-part polyurethane adhesive that has a quick tack - fast cure quality enabling customers to accelerate production time and reduce costs.
Fastack is the first polyurethane adhesives to enable continual uninterrupted production lines for bonding panels in a variety of applications and Knauf Insulation Ltd is one of the first customers to realise its full potential.
The Polyfoam division of Knauf Insulation Ltd first approached Apollo approximately 14 months ago to request assistance with a specialist project. The project Knauf was faced with required the bonding of two pieces of insulation panel to make a composite panel required for a particular customer.
After careful consultation, Apollo suggested that Knauf use the newly developed Fastack. This is easily applied using special spray equipment; the panel is then fed through a pinch roller after which the adhesive quickly cures to form an extremely strong bond. Polyfoam was able to produce the required composite panel from their own premises at a cost that was right for them and their customers.
Knauf Insulation Ltd is the UK leader [including Crown, Rocksil® and Polyfoam° brands] in the manufacture of products for thermal and acoustic insulation and fire protection; lamination is a sensible addition to the products supplied and having the equipment in house means greater quality control, more benefit and less cost. |
