Solvay aims to utilise its combination of technical excellence and innovation to satisfy the needs of its customers in the adhesive and sealant industry throughout the world.

Solvay Advanced Functional Minerals is a leading supplier of Precipitated Calcium Carbonate (PCC) produced under the trade names of SOCAL^® and WINNOFIL^®.

Ultra-fine coated SOCAL^® and WINNOFIL^® achieves the desired rheological properties of sealants thanks to their high degree of fineness, their uniform grain size distribution, their nature and the amount of surface coating. These qualities allow them to be used in PVC, silicone, polysulphide and polyurethane sealants for the automotive, construction, aerospace, appliances and other industries.

Solvay Caprolactones produce a range of products sold under the CAPA^® trademark, comprising monomer, polyols and thermoplastics used in the manufacture of a wide range of adhesives.

CAPA^® polyols are utilised in the production of solvent based TPU adhesives, water based dispersions and reactive hot melt adhesives. CAPA^® thermoplastics are hot melts and can be used in the manufacture of reactive hot melts and laminating films.
