When it comes to sealants and construction adhesives, professionals and DIY users alike want one thing above all else: reliability. Whether you’re sealing a bathroom, bonding materials on-site or carrying out repairs in difficult weather conditions, choosing the right product can save time, reduce callbacks and deliver a longer-lasting finish.
That’s why the CT1 range has become one of the most trusted names in construction, plumbing, bathroom installation and general building work.
At HES, we stock a range of CT1 products designed to tackle everything from waterproof sealing and structural bonding to tanking systems and surface preparation.
What Is CT1?
CT1 is a high-performance sealant and adhesive developed using advanced TRIBRID® Technology. Unlike traditional silicones or hybrid polymers, CT1 combines exceptional bonding strength with flexibility, waterproof protection and durability across a huge range of materials.
It’s widely used by:
- Builders
- Bathroom installers
- Kitchen fitters
- Plumbers
- Joiners
- Roofers
- Maintenance teams
- DIY renovators
One of the biggest advantages of CT1 products is their versatility. Many products in the range can bond, seal and repair without the need for primers, additional fixings or multiple specialist products.
Why Tradespeople Choose CT1
Exceptional Bonding Strength
CT1 products are designed to bond to almost any common building material, including:
- Wood
