Advantages of Using Ductmate Sealants
Why choose Ductmate sealants? Here’s why our sealants stand out:
- High-Performance and Long-lasting: Ductmate sealants are formulated for excellent adhesion to metal and long-lasting flexibility. Regardless of what grade you choose, they resist cracking, even after transporting sealed ducts to project sites.
- LEED and UL Compliant: Ductmate sealants are low in VOCs, LEED compliant, CDPH compliant, UL-723 classified, and UL 181B-M listed. They meet strict indoor air quality and safety standards.
- Sealing the Deal: Ductmate’s premium and commercial-grade sealants can seal ductwork up to 15” w.g.
