Construction Applications

Commercial buildings are complex, with many applications that all have to work – 3M has developed a comprehensive collection of solutions to help.

A range of 3M solutions for every construction application

Many different systems work together in a completed building, and the best solution in one building may not be the right answer in another. 3M has a broad portfolio of solutions for several parts of the building so we can help you find the best option for each project.
  • Metal panels have to stay on buildings through all kinds of weather. 3M™ VHB™ Tapes have been providing high-strength bonding and long-term durability since 1980.

  • The building envelope helps manage the flow of air, vapor and heat as well as slowing the spread of fire and smoke. 3M has a complete portfolio of products that work together.

  • Your flashing, seaming and sealing need to stand up to all kinds of weather, and you need to put them on in the weather you’ve got right now. 3M has solutions that apply easily in many conditions.

  • Below-grade jobs require top-grade adhesives that attach it all: membrane, drainboard, filter fabric and more. 3M spray-on waterproof adhesives bond for good without mechanical fasteners.

  • Insulation of all types needs to stay in place to be effective. 3M has bonding solutions you can rely on to be easy to use, then stick for the duration.

  • Glass panels have to stay on buildings through all kinds of weather, and 3M™ VHB™ Tapes provide a solution that’s tough, durable and aesthetically pleasing with no visible fastener heads.

  • For reveals and inlays that remove easily once elevated, upgrade to versatile 3M spray adhesives, designed to bond to wood, plywood, wafer wood, fiberboard, PVC and polystyrene.
