The Speed advantage

Our customers continually tell us that IGK 130 gives them highest productivity, because it cures fast and it is more flexible, making IGK 130 well suited for use in low temperature applications. Due to its unique properties IGK 130 is a great combination of speed and flexibility combined with an extremely strong performance.

 

All these qualities of IGK 130 reduce the cleaning time dramatically, giving our customers competitive advantages, namely improvement of space and workflow and ensuring  faster shipments. This in turn leads to an improved yield.

An extra benefit especially where there is an order fluctuation, is the long open time, side by side with a fast curing when applied. Mercury free formula contributes to the preservations of our environment and creates healthy work environment.

Sounds like too good to be true, then you need to contact us for your free consultation call.

With over 6 months storage in specific conditions, delivered in 55 gallons drums from our US warehouses, the polyurethane edge sealant is perfect for both machine processing and manual feeding systems.

Strength and easy handling of Polysulfides

See what it means when perfect adhesion and the benefit of a “clean application” work together, ensuring our customers higher quality output.

IGK 330 demonstrates excellent adherent stability and provides outstanding resistance to weathering attack. Together with easy handling, tolerance against mistakes in production and temperature variations there is no doubt left, that IGK 330 is a flawless product, created to meet our customers’ needs. 

The exceptional properties of IGK 330 also provide a high quality finish around corners, and the polymer stays in place, dripping is a thing of the past.  This is an added benefit as the transportation chains on the line remain clean. 

There is hardly any thread at the end of the IG unit, leading to a shiny and brilliant surface. The very short tack free time ensures that the IG unit is safely handled a lot sooner than is the industry norm.

Time has proven that abrasion is hardly an issue, as with IGK 330 there is close to no friction in the machine.

Even at full speed the common time wasting issue of an air inclusion is eliminated. This is a given on all types of spacer bars.

An added benefit our customers on the shop floor tell us is, that in comparison to the products of other suppliers IGK 330 is odorless, which leads to a healthier work environment.

The product quality is certified in line with all major American standards, the ASTM E2 190, and stock is available in our US warehouse location.

The problem solver

Loss of productivity due to temperature variance is an issue of the past with IGK 511. In our 30 years of collaboration with the major IG manufacturers, our R&D has been able to ensure that two major points are addressed and solved:

Rapid melting, which saves you time and constant application even if there is a temperature variance* (specification apply and are provided, do contact us for your free consultation call).

The high level of adhesion and impermeability, which is the strongest factor for IG manufacturing as to why IGK 511 has been growing over the past years. That gives you peace of mind, as the adhesion to glass, or aluminum, stainless or galvanized steel has proven to be extremely impressive. Impermeability  ensured by IGK 511 contributes to the durability of the glass unit.

Physical stability is ensured, along with the benefit of correcting after application. Over the years, due to high sourcing of raw materials, IGK 511 is highly compatible with other sealants.

At a given temperature range the product is storable for at least two years, and is delivered in convenient 4 x 16.31 lbs slugs, (box 65.24 lbs). Shipment from our US warehouse. Online and onsite support provided.

Ultimate Adhesion of the Foam Spacer Butyl

To meet the industry demand for insulating glass sealant with foam based spacers, our Research and Development team took up a challenge and developed IGK 511S.

The nagging issues of UV stability is solved with this polysobutylene sealant, as its development is specifically for usage with foam-based spacer bars.

The feedback from our longstanding customers confirm our testing results. IGK 511S not only has high adhesive properties to the glass and to the foam spacer, but also ensures great impermeability.

To experience and provide such high level of customer satisfaction, you need to contact us for your free consultation call.

The product quality is certified, in line with all major American standards (ASTM E2 190). Stocks are available in our US warehouse location. Delivered in 4 x 15.87 lbs slugs, storage up to 24 months.

Double Strength with the TPS® solution

If your manufacturing process can benefit from one major point, it would be the issue of hot product application on to the cold glass. Along with the polyurethane secondary sealant IGK 130 there is a further stiffening ensured in the insulation-glazing unit.

The well-established IGK 611 provides your production with the flexibility to combine it with polysulfide or polyurethane, thereby ensuring you a proven economical alternative. The high mechanical strength allows a wide variety of distance settings. Customer tell us that compared to the Warm Edge system, there is a huge benefit in productivity, ease of handling and saving costs.

Packed in 55 gallons, shipped from our US warehouse, along with onsite and online technical support, do contact us for your free consultation call.

Together with your production department, IGK provides onsite knowledge sharing to set the application robot giving you optimal performance.

Power of Hotmelt

Whether you require box- spacer of metal, or flexible foam spacers, U-shaped spacers, or even plastic spacer bars: Your manufacturing needs a product that is flexible, and serves as a powerful melt system and a secondary sealant.

This was accomplished by our R&D team closely listening to customers’ demands, and then by developing IGK 711. A homogeneous melting and cooling behavior requires a high level of chemistry skills, especially meeting the specifications of European insulation glass industry.

The high bonding strength furthermore allows for improved workflow on the shop floor, giving you more options and faster turnaround time. Do you want to have these benefits, do contact us for your free consultation call.

IGK 711 Hotmelt comes in a 55 gallon drum, and is shipped directly from our US based warehouse.
