PanelTack™ • Bostik

Developed and successfully used worldwide for over 30 years, Bostik’s PanelTack system of wall panel and facade cladding adhesives, are now available for both interior and exterior stone, porcelain and ceramic projects in North America. The complete PanelTack System includes Primer PanelTack™, FoamTape™, PanelTack HM™ and other PanelTack™ primers, which work together in a simple step-by-step process that ensures permanent/comprehensive coverage for a seamless, durable and decorative finish. Whether for new building or retrofit projects, PanelTack offers a modern look with an "invisible" attachment method. Additionally, no electrical plug-in source is required on the jobsite. Translated, this results in reduction on the jobsite of harmful silica dust -- and no harsh noise caused by drilling and fastening. Importantly, there is no weakening of the panel due to fabrication. For example, thinner wall panels, such as large-format gauged porcelain tiles, easily can be used in conjunction with PanelTack. PanelTack’s chemical method is more resistant to vibrations than any mechanical method; there are no cold bridges and more favorable stress distribution with this system. It is easy and fast to install, clean, silent and lightweight. The PanelTack System improves both acoustic and thermal efficiency of the building, while increasing its lifespan. People inside experience noise reduction, stable temperature change, cost reductions on HVAC and more.
