Silicone assembly sealant improves performance, productivity and
safety
Window manufacturers know a window is much more than a frame and a few
pieces of glass. It is a complex system of highly technical components and raw
materials.
Window buyers are less interested in the technical details than they are in
the answers to these important questions: “Will it start to leak in five
years?” “What impact will it have on my heating bill?”
By using a silicone hot melt sealant and an automated manufacturing process,
a leading window manufacturer was able to exceed its customers’ air and water
infiltration requirements. Productivity rates improved. So did plant safety,
since the windows required less handling.
