Eco Adhesive Adds to Green Toolbox
Glue and adhesive products have long been a source of fumes and have had less than stellar eco reputations. Enter Eclectic Products, which provides a solution for the green tool kit with adhesive products that are non-toxic, do not contain formaldehyde, and contain little to no volatile organic compounds (VOCs). The newest Eclectic Products product is EcoGlue Extreme, a premium adhesive and sealant engineered for strong adhesion to virtually any substrate. The company also offers EcoGlue, a super binding adhering to woods, stone, metal, tile, glass, and from personal observation, plastics too.
Eclectic’s adhesive products are water based, waterproof and its use can help earn Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) points in building construction and indoor materials. Eclectic’s wood glue also meets construction and engineering standards , according to the standards group ASTM.
For the sensitive young and the elderly, the use of toxic adhesive and products in general, can trigger respiratory attacks. Non-eco conscious adhesives can contribute to poor indoor air quality creating a public health issue and liability for building owners. Having an eco and effective adhesive product provides solutions to both Mr. Fix It and construction crews.
Eclectic Products joins a growing number of green adhesives including Loctite, Henkel OSI GreenSeries, and Titebond GREENchoice adhesives
