Supexbond 1 Component Flooring Adhesive
SUPEXBOND PLATINUM
The Flooring Industry's #1 Choice
Types of hardwood flooring glue used for any installation should be given top priority considerations. By not using the proper ones, failures are likely to occur. Often do it yourself weekend installers make the same mistake over and over again. They balk at the high priced adhesives manufacturers recommend and try a lower priced adhesive. Supexbond offers a competitive price and the adhesive quality is higher than industry standards.

By far, urethane adhesives are used more predominately than any other hardwood adhesive today. Hardwood manufacturers that don't offer their own glue specify it more than any other. It is not entirely friendly with the environment, but is vastly improved from higher toxic adhesives that were banned by the EPA in the 90's. Supexbond Platinum is environmentally friendly & V.O.C free.
Supexbond Platinum Installation
Although solid glue down installations are a grey area, installed by proper specifications they can be just as successful as using an engineered hardwood (more often recommended with concrete). As a side note, we don't advocate the installation of genuine solid 3/4" products with these types of adhesives. Reasons being many installers do not follow procedures well enough. Thinner solid products are safer to use because of the product flexibility.
