Faster adhesion to flat roofs

Insta-Stik roofing adhesive – used to attach insulation boards and waterproofing membranes to a variety of substrates on flat roofs – benefits from a “unique” delivery system that ensures precisely controlled doses.

“Flat roofs account for a third of the UK’s total roof area, many belonging to public buildings where it is particularly important for contractors to be able to work efficiently, safely and maintain high performance,” said Nick Mills, md of specialist roofing product company InStar, which distributes Insta-Stik for Dow Building Solutions in the UK.

“Contractors seeking a portable, quick, clean and easy-to-use system providing fast adhesion appreciate being able to apply the Insta-Stik product with the specially designed wand, and thus not having to rely on guesswork, which can lead to waste.”

Insta-Stik comes in a portable, pressurised container which needs no external power source. The product is already expanded when dispensed, and application can thus be accurately controlled. It needs no heating or primer, there are no fumes during application, and one canister can be used to adhere 100m2 of insulation board.
