Key benefits

  • High strength: Excellent mechanical strength and a high strength-to-weight ratio.
  • Durable: Outstanding long-term stability under permanent load.
  • Fast curing: Fast-curing binders, even at low temperatures, for greater productivity.
  • Sustainable: Non-water soluble, emission-free gluing. No added formaldehyde.
  • Customizable: Suitable for the manufacture of specialty products (e.g. beams and LVL).
Polyurethane binders provide a versatile and efficient solution for the manufacture of engineered wood products such as OSB, MDF, chipboards, molded particleboard and lightweight wood fiber insulation. Our high-performance Desmodur® polymeric MDI (PDMI) binders have been used throughout the industry for more than four decades. Thanks to strong bonding with wood and other plant-based fibers, Desmodur® creates a tough, durable construction during the pressing stages. Highly crosslinked polyurea elastomers yield moisture-resistant sheets and moldings for increased protection against thickness swell. Fast-curing PDMI-based binders are also compatible with lower temperatures so manufacturers can benefit from increased productivity and energy savings as well as a more stable processing window. High-strength, economical PU-bound panels are suitable for outdoor applications and emissions-free indoor use.
