MIDLAND, MICHIGAN, USA – The Sealant, Waterproofing and Restoration Institute
(SWRI) – an independent professional organization of over 180 leading
commercial contractors, manufacturers and consultants – recently validated the
performance of the following Dow Corning products:
-
·Dow Corning® Contractors Concrete Sealant (CCS)
-
·Dow Corning® AllGuard Silicone Elastomeric Coating
-
·Dow Corning® 791 Silicone Weatherproofing Sealan
CCS is a one-part, moisture-cure, low-modulus silicone sealant that provides
durable, flexible, watertight joint seals and offers outstanding unprimed
adhesion to masonry. CCS is priced to compete with urethane on low-rise
projects.
AllGuard Coating is designed to waterproof above-grade exterior masonry
substrates, such as concrete block, fluted block, brick, stucco, synthetic
stucco, poured concrete, precast concrete, exterior insulation finish systems
(EIFS) and previously coated masonry substrates.
A one-part, medium-modulus, elastomeric sealant designed for general
weathersealing, 791 Sealant is suitable for use on both porous and non-porous
substrates. The SWRI validated the sealant for use on glass, anodized aluminum
and mortar (when applied in combination with Dow Corning® Construction Primer
P).
“We’re very pleased about these most recent certifications,” said Duane
Govitz, market manager for Dow Corning Construction Industries, Americas.
“SWRI validation provides independent verification that these Dow Corning
products truly provide the outstanding performance and high quality industry
professionals need and expect.”
In addition to CCS, AllGuard and 791 Sealant, five other Dow Corning sealants
also hold SWRI validation:
-
·Dow Corning® 756 SMS Building Sealant
-
·Dow Corning® 790 Silicone Building Sealant
-
