Adhesives
Adhesives Overview Water based adhesives certified as "very low emission" are the first choice for health and environmental protection. They are free of solvents or VOCs and safe to install. However, their range of application concerning certain types of wood floor or sub floor is limited. Solvent based adhesives are well proven for wood floor installation over several decades offer a large range of application but contain non-hazardous solvents which will evaporate during the first weeks after installation is completed. Urethane based adhesives offer the largest range of application and highest installation security but are usually more expensive than other adhesives.
