ASTM International will be collaborating with industry to develop Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) across the 90+ industry markets it supports, including sealants.
According to a new study by consulting firm Kusumgar, Nerlfi & Growney, the global consumption of sealants was 3.6 billion pounds in 2011, worth $8.45 billion.
Three of the leading trade associations representing the adhesives and sealants industry have collaborated to harmonize the industry’s classification manual.
Royal Adhesives & Sealants (Royal), a portfolio company of Arsenal Capital Partners (Arsenal), and Vertis Communications (Vertis) announced that Royal will acquire substantially all of the assets of Vertis' indirect wholly-owned subsidiary, Webcraft Chemicals, which operates under the name Craig Adhesives & Coatings (Craig).
