Solar and Wind Energy
Materials for Solar and Wind Energy Systems
The solar and wind industries are advancing quickly as demand for clean, reliable energy accelerates worldwide. High-performance materials are essential to maximizing durability, efficiency, and long-term system success in harsh outdoor and high-load environments. From module assembly and field installation in solar, to aerodynamic enhancements, structural bonding, and sealing in wind turbines, every application requires solutions engineered for extreme performance and longevity. Our portfolio of renewable-energy materials — including adhesives, sealants, coatings, and encapsulants — supports stronger, longer-lasting installations, improved energy output, and safer, more sustainable operations across both solar and wind applications.
Solar Energy
As global demand for clean energy rises, the need for advanced solutions in solar manufacturing and installation has never been greater. Our materials for solar panel assembly and field deployment are engineered to enhance efficiency, durability, and long-term performance — empowering manufacturers and installers to meet today’s ambitious sustainability goals and harness the power of the sun for a brighter future.
Wind Energy
As wind energy capacity expands across the globe, the demand for high-performance bonding and sealing solutions continues to grow. Our adhesives and sealants for wind turbine manufacturing and maintenance — from vortex generator bonding and nacelle sealing to plate bonding and threadlocking — are designed to withstand extreme conditions, improve reliability, and extend turbine life. With proven performance both onshore and offshore, we help wind OEMs and service teams optimize efficiency, reduce downtime, and capture the full potential of wind power.
