EpoxyAdhesives

Petrokem epoxy adhesives are the pinnacle of two component adhesive systems. Many of the epoxy adhesives used in Sri Lanka today, have originated from the ingenuity of Petrokem. We understand that bonding items, whether it is basic or technical, needs different solutions. Therefore, we strive to continuously innovate and adapt to changing market needs. Today, we boast an adhesive range that caters towards a wide array of domestic, commercial and industrial requirements.

AdvantagesOfEpoxyAdhesives

Excellent bond strength.

Excellent adhesion to a variety of substrates. Formulated to have a wide range of properties.

Excellent chemical and moisture resistance. Strong performance against shear and tension.

Sri Lanka has made a significant development in the design and construction sector during the last 10 years. The use of epoxy as a primary adhesive has been gaining in popularity in the country for its durability and strength. Epoxy adhesives have penetrated almost all industries in Sri Lanka today, from the Furniture manufacturing industry to the construction industry. The furniture manufacturing industry accounts to over 75% of the epoxy adhesives that is currently being used in Sri Lanka.
