Parasilico AX – the future of silicone 03 December 2024

With its new line of six Parasilico AX alkoxy-based silicone sealants, Belgian manufacturer of high-quality sealants and adhesives DL Chemicals states it is launching the ‘silicone sealants of the future’.

Offering many advantages, the Parasilico AX product line is MEKO-free and is characterised by very low VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) emissions. The high-quality sealants also offer excellent adhesion to most common materials; fast skin formation and curing; high elasticity; and have an unlimited colour choice available. 

The six products in the range include the Parasilico AX Construct T – a universal alkoxy silicone for all connection and movement joints in construction; the Parasilico AX Easy Seal T – a neutral alkoxy curing silicone sealant that is, due to its high viscosity and body, particularly easy to apply and finish; as well as the Parasilico AX Easy Seal Sanitary T – another neutral alkoxy curing silicone sealant that has been developed for sealing in damp areas and for grouting tiles.

The three remaining products in the range are the Parasilico AX Sanitary T neutral alkoxy curing silicone sealant – excellently suitable for applications in high-humidity and sanitary areas, as well as for cold rooms; the Parasilico AX Standard LMN T neutral alkoxy curing silicone sealant for all connection joints and façade joints; and finally the Parasilico AX Plastics T neutral alkoxy curing silicone sealant for sealing plastic surfaces, polycarbonate and PMMA. 

The new sealants are also packaged in Post Consumer Recycled (PCR) cartridges consisting of 100% recycled material.
