New components and manufacturing processes provide the means to produce
higher quality, more comfortable vehicles. In line with this trend,
ADCO works with you to deliver increasingly functional adhesives and
sealants, tapes of nearly any type, and key primers geared toward the
construction of novel materials and improved manufacturing systems.
If you require new forms of fastening technologies to improve
aesthetics, seal and adhere, insulate and waterproof, we can help. If
you’re in the market for better sound deadening patches, we can help.
If you need an alternative pumpable sealant technology, we can help. We
have a handle on polyurethanes, polysulfides and butyl technologies
that can be fine-tuned to meet your needs in the areas of performance
and economics.

You
may know us in this market for our polyurethanes and butyls
adhesives/sealers to keep water out, but did you know we’re leveraging
our core chemistry to develop superior structural elastic technologies?
ADCO and German counterpart – Kömmerling – are working together to
bring you a new generation of structural elastics in North America.
Just like you, we’re looking at ways to lower the weight of vehicles
and reduce the carbon footprint.
