Adhesive applications for construction and wood
Collano's success story began in 1947 in the construction and timber industry. More precisely, with adhesives for joineries, carpentry workshops and timber and element construction. At Collano, as well as being your experts for adhesive joints, we enrich the industry with our unique expertise and knowledge of materials, true to our roots in wood processing.
Veneers
Collano offers users a choice of two veneer adhesive technologies: Ready-to-use dispersions and powdered urea adhesives. The universal dispersion veneer glues are suitable for veneering and panelling as well as for general carpentry work. Moisture and heat-resistant dispersion glues are recommended for gluing windows and doors and for veneering fireproof boards. The powdered, low-formaldehyde veneer adhesive is suitable for emission class E1.
Overlaying
Collano offers various adhesive technologies for overlaying and surface bonding: Adapted to the material properties of materials and surface layers. Collano offers several types of ready-to-use dispersions, which are used for overlaying various wood-based materials such as light wood and solid wood boards, and chipboard. They are also suitable for surface bonding of various absorbent and non-absorbent materials such as laminate boards as well as gypsum and cement-bonded boards.
Edgebanding
Collano offers specific edgebanding adhesives for machine processing with edgebanding machines and for manual edgebanding. The EVA hotmelt adhesives in cartridge and granulate form are suitable for all standard application systems. EVA hotmelt adhesives can be used universally, are fast-melting, have very good wetting properties and exhibit string-free running performance.
Bonding solid wood
We offer dispersion adhesives and reactive 1-component PUR adhesives for bonding solid wood and wood-based materials. This makes professional wood bonding easy. Collano wood adhesives are the first choice for bonding solid wood and wood to wood indoors and outdoors.
Sandwich bonding
The specific type of surface lamination for sandwich elements is usually used for multi-layer structures consisting of different cover and core layers. The surfaces of the sandwich elements are predominantly decorative, while the core materials are functional - serving mainly as an insulating element or as a load-bearing element. Adhesives with good joint filling are ideal for these large surfaces. Collano adapts the adhesive properties to the machine conditions and the materials to be bonded.
Metal bonding
Metal to wood or metal to metal can be optimally bonded with Collano silane-based products - either as 1-component or 2-component adhesives. 1C silane adhesives can be used for bonding metal to wood. For bonding metal to metal, we recommend the 2-component silane adhesives, which offer an excellent adhesion spectrum on all common metals. Aluminium can be bonded to wood with our dispersion adhesive Collano DW 2040.
Hollow box and element construction
Collano offers specially-developed adhesives for timber and element construction . These are ideal for manual processing using Collano's PUR-Applico-Vario application nozzle. Hollow box elements made of wood for walls and ceilings are lightweight and statically highly effective. They enable column-free rooms and provide good sound insulation. Formaldehyde-free, the 1C PUR adhesive has various applications, such as bonding cross-laminated timber boards to form hollow box elements. Offering so many advantages, element construction with hollow box elements is very much on trend.
Assemblies
Collano offers high-performance adhesives based on silane and PUR for demanding indoor and outdoor applications in industry and commerce. The great advantage of assembly adhesives is the variety of materials that can be bonded with them. Whether aluminium, wood, stone, concrete, brass or coated surfaces - Collano assembly adhesives enable secure bonding. Extra-strong assembly adhesives - or high-tack adhesives - have a very high initial adhesion, which is ideal for assembly work. Collano assembly adhesives are suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. They can withstand temperatures between -40 °C and +110 °C. Some products are UV-stabilised and can withstand direct sunlight.
