Which adhesive to choose for windscreen replacement?

Bostik offers a wide range of adhesive technologies for windscreen replacement, such as Silyl Modified Polymers (SMP), polyurethanes (PU) and hybrid systems. 

  • Silyl Modified Polymers (SMP): Combining the advantages of silicone and polyurethane chemistries, the SMP product range is free of isocyanates and solvents, and are extremely flexible. Also, SMPs provide excellent durability of adhesion with limited surface pre-treatment. In addition, they offer impressive UV and temperature resistance, as well as excellent shelf-life (up to 18 months for cartridges). If you are looking for a safer and more sustainable solution, we higly recommend to use our comprehensive range of silyl modified polymers that provides technology of the future.
  • Polyurethane (PU), known as a common go-to adhesive technology, demonstrates high levels of flexibility, and adverse weather conditions.

What are the process recommendations from Bostik to use these adhesives?

We recommend applying our adhesives at room temperature. Due to its stable viscosity, our adhesives can easily be applied manually. Bostik glass replacement adhesives are one-component, moisture-curing products. The product is normally applied in closed bead to avoid water leakage after curing.

What is Bostik's position on sustainability in glass replacement application?

Sustainability is at the core of our smart adhesive solutions. This is why Bostik is constantly developing its expertise and looking for safer solutions, such as SMP technology, which contain no isocyanates nor solvents. Generally these products do not not require exhaustive pre-treatment/primering steps, just cleaning is sufficient in many cases.

In this way SMP’s, besides being HSE-friendly, help reducing usage of solvented primers and additional chemical waste. (Note; Adhesion to surfaces always has to be checked before applying it to large surfaces/high throughput applications. Please consult your local Bostik supplier).
