Common end products include but are not limited to – molded cylinders comprised of recycled tire and/or recycled tire/EPDM rubber mixtures that are skived into mats for weight and fitness rooms, and indoor sports-flooring underlayment.

Premium, medium-hard, solvent and extender free, moisture-curing, one-component polyurethane binder. Low reactivity. Solvent & extender free. Provides the longest open time and a faster backend cure for quicker demolding. Suitable for ambient processes up to 100 °F. Common end products include but are not limited to – cork bonding and molded cylinders comprised of recycled tire and/or recycled tire/EPDM rubber mixtures that are skived into mats for weight and fitness rooms, and indoor sports-flooring underlayment.

Premium, medium-hard, solvent and extender free, moisture-curing, one-component polyurethane binder. Low reactivity.  Solvent & extender free. Provides a long open time for processes that require multiple mixes to fill the mold while also delivering a faster backend cure for quicker demolding. Suitable for ambient processes up to 100 °F. Common end products include but are not limited to – molded cylinders comprised of recycled tire and/or recycled tire/EPDM rubber mixtures that are skived into mats for weight rooms, fitness areas and indoor sports-flooring underlayment.
