One of the most stringent requirements for any roofing adhesive is the High Velocity Hurricane Zone (HVHZ) code required by Miami-Dade County, Fla. Ashland Specialty Polymers & Adhesives, a business group of Ashland Specialty Chemical, a division of Ashland Inc., was notified that PLIODECK insulation adhesive met the HVHZ requirements and was accepted under notice #04-0217.01 for use in Miami-Dade County.
“We’re very pleased to bring this outstanding adhesive to the Miami-Dade County area,” said Robert J. Winzeler, marketing manager for PLIODECK. “The proven performance of PLIODECK adhesives provides roofing contractors an additional level of excellence they now can provide their clients.”
PLIODECK insulation adhesive is used to bond most insulation board to roofing substrates such as structural and lightweight concretes, plywood and gypsum boards, among others. It is a urethane-based chemistry that contains no solvents and features an improved environmental profile when compared to other insulation adhesives. The one-part, moisture-curing system provides lockdown in 30 minutes and full cure in 24 hours.
