PPG launches Mulco Supra Elite bubble-free sealant

PITTSBURGH, April 24, 2014 – MULCO SUPRA ELITE is the first sealant of its kind for PPG Industries that is both a low volatile organic compound (VOC) sealant and also provides a bubble-free seal. Additionally, it can be used for interior or exterior application and delivers a smooth and seamless finish for users.

“We are excited to add another high performing sealant to our Mulco sealant portfolio,” said Ken West, director of PPG Architectural Coatings Adhesives and Sealants. “The bubble-free finish will differentiate the Mulco brand in the low VOC sealant marketplace.”

This new product is positioned to meet the most stringent Canadian regulatory standards for VOC levels within the foreseeable future. Supra Elite’s finish is flat and does not bubble or blister, even under harsh conditions or on porous/ non porous substrates like vinyl, wood and fiber cement siding, whilst maintaining excellent adhesion and performance.

Additionally, Supra Elite sealant has exceptional adhesive power that creates a durable, waterproof seal, which increases protection from weather, eliminates drafts and improves energy efficiency.

Unlike latex and rubber based sealants, the Supra Elite product by PPG uses water on surfaces and in the air to cure. During the process, this formula prevents shrinkage and provides a more reliable seal that will be less prone to drafts and water leaks.

Available in a wide range of colors to match the most common substrates and siding materials, Supra Elite sealant joins the Mulco product portfolio and will be sold exclusively through Canadian industrial accounts.
