A new design on its way for Parasilico 16 August 2018

Parasilico has been produced since 1979 by the Belgian family company DL Chemicals. In 2018 a major change is about to take place with all silicone cartridges getting new, fresh designs.

Parasilico is for sealing elastic joints and finishing off many building projects. The sealants have a permanent elasticity and an excellent adhesive strength on the majority of construction materials. They are produced under the ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 quality label and have several product certifications.

The new cartridge design is made up of the company’s typical colours, black and green, which gives more serenity and uniformity in comparison with the previous design. Furthermore, every silicone type can be easily recognised by its specific colour area, so the customer can quickly make the distinction in the store or on the building site. Finally, a category mentioned on the cartridge helps distinguish which applications the sealant is suitable for such as weatherseal, universal, sanitary, plastics, natural stone, high temperatures and fire resistant.

The new cartridges will gradually arrive on shelves between summer and autumn 2018 after depletion of stock of the previous design, with some already available this month.

DL Chemicals offers a full range of silicones, MS polymers and hybrid sealants, acrylic sealants, PU sealants, PU foams, and glues with a high and constant quality level for the professional user. The Belgian company is a national and worldwide producer, with its own R&D lab and technical support team.
