Modular buildings and container systems are modern construction solutions in which the majority of building components are manufactured in a controlled factory environment and assembled on-site. Thanks to their rapid installation, standardized production processes, and consistently high quality, they are increasingly used in residential, commercial, educational, healthcare, hospitality, and industrial projects.
These building systems integrate steel structures, sandwich panels, composite boards, cement-based panels, engineered wood products, aluminum profiles, and glass systems. Because multiple construction materials are combined within a single structure, adhesives and sealants have become essential components in achieving long-term building performance.
In modular construction, adhesives and sealants are commonly used in the following applications:
Module joint sealing
Sandwich panel connections
Window and door installation
Roof joints
Wet area details
Interior partition systems
Metal profile joints
Installation of façade accessories
Electrical and mechanical service penetrations
Maintenance and repair applications.
Products used in these applications are expected to provide long-term performance while resisting vibration, movement during transportation, temperature fluctuations, and prolonged exposure to outdoor environmental conditions.
Technologies Used
Polyurethane Assembly Foams
Polyurethane installation foams are used to fill installation gaps and enhance thermal and acoustic insulation in modular building systems.
Typical applications include window installation, door installation, service cavities, and utility penetrations.
Neutral Silicones
Neutral-cure silicones are used to provide durable, long-lasting sealing in exterior façade and roof joints.
Their excellent compatibility with metal substrates and glass systems makes them particularly suitable for outdoor applications.
Polyurethane Sealants
Polyurethane sealants are used to create flexible joints in applications subjected to vibration and structural movement.
They are particularly suitable for steel structure details and module-to-module joints.
Hybrid Polymer Technology
Hybrid polymer-based products are among the most widely used adhesive and sealing systems in modular construction.
Their key advantages include excellent adhesion to a wide variety of construction materials, permanent elasticity, vibration damping, outstanding weather resistance, and, depending on the product, paintability.
They deliver reliable performance on steel, aluminum, wood, composite panels, and concrete substrates.
