Woodworking

In the woodworking industry more and more adhesives are finding their way to the market. There is aslo a growing trend towards using sealants. Many woodworking manufacurers produce timber window frames.

Most of these window frames will be constructed using adhesives, and the manufacturer will also install the glass and therefore also, the glazing sealants. Aside from window frames, many woodworking shops also make and supply “ready-to-use” items that can be installed directly in a domestic house or a commercial building. Many of these woodworking shops will also install their items. Compatibility, speed, durability and sustainability, and in some cases paintability, are crucial to determining the most suitable adhesive and sealant.

To utilise these trends Den Braven offers a complete portfolio of adhesives such as traditional PVAC adhesives, and the more popular polyurethane adhesives. Classical solvent containing adhesives will make way for adhesives based on polyurethane, and hybrid based sealants.

For finished wood, Den Braven supplies a full range of putties and fillers in various easy and convenient packaging types. For interior applications the polyester based products are popular for their curing speed and sanding properties. Den Braven does not recommend applying these polyester based products outdoors. For exterior use Den Braven offers the unique family of flexible water based and extremely durable epoxy based fillers, Zwaluw Repox® and Zwaluw Repox® fast.
