Building Envelope Solutions

Integrated silicone solutions designed to protect, enhance, and extend building performance.
Quick links

The building envelope is a building’s first line of defence against weather, moisture, energy loss, and premature deterioration. High-performance envelope solutions help protect critical components including roofs, façades, glazing systems, and joints while supporting long-term durability and reduced maintenance requirements.

These silicone technologies provide integrated solutions for commercial and industrial buildings, helping architects, contractors, specifiers, and building owners manage air, water, and environmental exposure across both new construction and restoration projects. Designed to perform across a wide range of substrates and conditions, these systems support durable, energy-efficient buildings while helping projects meet performance, sustainability, and specification goals.

Improve Project Efficiency and Reduce Lifecycle Costs

Fast-curing, primerless systems and versatile application methods help simplify installation, reduce downtime, and support demanding project schedules. Long-term durability and reduced maintenance requirements help lower lifecycle costs and protect building investments.

Complete Protection Across the Building Envelope

Integrated silicone technologies help manage air, water, and environmental exposure across critical building components. By working together across roofs, façades, glazing systems, and joints, these solutions help prevent leaks, reduce deterioration, and support long-term building performance.

Support Energy Efficiency and Sustainability Goals

High-performance envelope solutions help reduce air and moisture infiltration, improve building efficiency, and support sustainable construction objectives. Low-VOC technologies and durable materials can contribute toward green building goals, including LEED certification requirements, while reducing the need for frequent repair or replacement.

Reliable Performance Across Substrates and Conditions

Silicone technologies provide durable adhesion and flexibility across common building materials including concrete, masonry, brick, stucco, EIFS, precast panels, glass, and metal. Designed to accommodate movement and withstand challenging environments, these solutions provide confidence throughout the building lifecycle.
