Ductmate’s duct sealants are formulated to provide exceptional performance for both indoor and outdoor applications. They are uniquely designed and formulated to address common challenges, such as mildew resistance, meeting stringent UL specifications, and maintaining flexibility even in demanding conditions.

Our line of adhesives includes: Gecko Glue™ Gold, Gecko Glue Silver, Gecko Glue Concentrate, Quick-Stick™ CA (Cylinder), and Quick-Stick Aerosol Can.
Encapsulating Edge Coatings:
Encapsulating edge coatings are designed to create a durable, flexible barrier that seals and protects the edges of ductwork, preventing air leaks and improving energy efficiency. Our edge coatings are specifically formulated to be resistant to moisture, mold, and mildew, ensuring long-lasting protection.
Our line of encapsulating edge coatings includes: Quick-Stick Fiber Guard, Super Liner Seal (SLS™), and LAG-IT™.
