Bostik is a leader in the adhesive and sealants segment of the construction industry with one of the most comprehensive product offerings available, all backed by our limited and extended warranties.  Bostik is the 4th largest adhesive and sealant company in the world, backed by the resources of TOTAL, the 4th largest oil company in the world.  The greatest advantage of utilizing Bostik materials for your adhesive and sealants needs is that you have only one manufacturer to deal with if questions or concerns arise.  Additionally, we have a dedicated sales and technical service organization that is at your service any time you need assistance.  Better products and better service are the cornerstone of all Bostik brands
 
Attached is a list of the Bostik Adhesives and Sealants that may contribute to the qualification of a project for the NAHB Model Green Home Building Guideline as specified in Section 7, Global Impact, subsection 7.1.3  (An extract of this standard is attached for your review.)  The intent of this five point credit criteria is to advocate adhesives and sealants that contain minimal levels of volatile organic compounds and, ultimately, minimize environmental impact.
 
If you have any questions regarding our product offering, or the contribution of our products toward the three different levels of NAHB Green Building, please contact me directly at 800-523-2678, extension 3101.  Once again, we look forward to working with your and becoming your preferred Adhesive and Sealant supplier - and more importantly, partner, on your exciting project.
