Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT) Adhesives
Meet Cross-Laminated Timber Code Requirements
When designing cross-laminated timber panel applications, your mass timber adhesives must meet certain strength and fire code requirements. Our ISOSET™ MAX adhesives for CLT pass:
- PRG-320 standards for strength, durability, fire and creep testing
- PRG-320 Annex B full scale compartment fire test
- CSA 0112.9 standards for resistance to aspects such as compression loading, delamination, deformation under static shear loading in heat and humidity
- ANSI-405 standards for strength, aging and moisture resistance, specifically:
- ASTM D2559
- ASTM D1151
- D7247
- CSA0112.10; B2 Creep
- ASTM D1183
- CSA 0177 Small-Scale CLT Burn
- ANSI-405 standards for strength, aging and moisture resistance, specifically:
Improve CLT Processing Efficiencies
Our ISOSET MAX adhesives for cross-laminated timber panels can do more than meet the necessary performance code requirements; unlike other options, they also can help improve your processing efficiency.
Our Bostik experts understand that when manufacturing mass timber applications, such as CLT, you need to balance processing time needs. To help streamline production, our experts have formulated adhesives with an excellent, balanced ratio of working time to press time compared to alternative options on the market. This allows us to help you meet your desired working time and keep associated press time to a minimum.
