Typical uses
CT1 Adhesive & Sealant is ideal for general construction, repair, and maintenance tasks where a strong, flexible, weather-resistant bond is required.
It may also be used alongside external wall insulation (EWI) systems for minor sealing or bonding tasks - e.g. around window reveals, service penetrations or junctions - where an additional flexible seal is desired.
Note: Always follow your EWI system manufacturer’s detailing guidance. CT1 is not a substitute for approved EWI sealants, tapes, trims or other system components.
