Structural glazing plays an important role in weatherproofing and protecting buildings from the elements. Silicone sealant is a crucial component of this process, as it creates a watertight barrier between the curtain wall and the glazing. Let’s take a look at why silicone sealant is so important, and how it can benefit your construction projects.
What is Structural Glazing?
Structural glazing is a type of weatherproofing system that uses silicone sealant to create a barrier between the curtain wall and the glazing. This helps protect the glazing from moisture, wind, and other environmental factors that could damage it. It also provides additional insulation for energy efficiency.
Why Use Silicone Sealant?
Silicone sealants are specifically designed for structural glazing applications because they offer superior strength and durability compared to other types of sealants. They are also waterproof, highly elastic, non-chemical resistant, and able to adhere to many different materials.
Plus, they offer excellent adhesion even when exposed to extreme temperatures or UV radiation. With these qualities, you can be sure that your structural glazing will remain watertight and provide long-term protection against weather elements like rain and snow.
As experts in silicone sealant commercial services, we can offer the help you need to get the right products for the job and ensure your glazing areas are as well sealed as possible.
