GreenForce is a high-performance adhesive, sound reduction membrane, and moisture vapor control membrane all in one. Bostik’s breakthrough AXIOS® Tri-Linking Polymer Technology used in this formulation maintains the superior long-term durability and moisture vapor protection properties of high-end urethane adhesives. However, it is easier to spread on and clean off of prefinished flooring before and after cure. This adhesive has zero VOCs (as calculated per SCAQMD Rule 1168) and does NOT contain any water. GreenForce comes with Bostik’s BLOCKADE® antimicrobial protection, which inhibits the growth of bacteria, mold, or mildew on the surface of the cured membrane. The cured membrane resists stains caused by mold.
Description
Superior Moisture Vapor Control Protection
GreenForce has extremely low moisture-vapor permeability and is not adversely affected by moisture vapor. As a result, costly and time-consuming concrete moisture vapor testing is not required when the slab is properly prepared, dry to the touch, and fully cured.
Anti-Fracture Performance
GreenForce’s elastomeric characteristics establish an anti-fracture membrane that can bridge cracks up to 1/8″ (3mm), which can occur in the substrate prior to or after installation. This superior elasticity allows the adhesive to move with the wood as it expands and contracts with changes in humidity and temperature over the life of the floor.
GreenForce adheres to all the most common substrates used in hardwood flooring installation
Bostik GreenForce has no restrictions on board width or length. It may be used over all properly prepared substrates common to hardwood flooring installations.
