Sealants and Adhesives

Low VOC products
 
It takes pretty constant policing to make sure that products complying with our low VOC specifications are actually getting used on this job.

We are having to check every day to make sure the team complies - apparently it's easy to forget the specifications if you happen to have a tube or can of something else in the back of your truck...
