Trusted worldwide. Proven for decades.

Since 1989, Tec7 has been simplifying construction, maintenance, and repair work with innovative, easy-to-use solutions that professionals can rely on. Today, Tec7 is a world-leading brand for sealing, mounting, bonding, and cleaning — trusted by tradespeople and DIYers alike.

What makes Tec7 stand out is its incredible versatility. With one product, you can replace mounting glue, PU glue, wood glue, silicone, and acrylic sealants — saving time, space, and hassle. Whether you’re working in signage, acoustic paneling, carpentry, roofing, flooring, painting, or sanitary installations, Tec7 delivers lasting results with professional quality.

Behind Tec7 is Novatech International, a Belgian company known for its innovation and commitment to quality. Their passion for creating products that perform under pressure has made Tec7 a favourite across industries for more than 30 years.

With Tec7, you get:

  • Unmatched reliability — tested, trusted, and built to last
  • Superior quality — engineered for exceptional performance
  • Ease of use — simple application with professional-grade results

Bond, Mount and Seal — Even Under Water

Tec7 MS polymer adhesive and sealant

Tec7 is a solvent-free MS polymer based product. It’s not a silicone — it’s a Hybrid MS polymer, a technology developed in Japan in the late 1970s to make buildings more resistant to earthquakes. The combination of high bonding strength and high elasticity allows MS polymers to absorb movement and vibrations while remaining strong enough to hold structures together. Bolts and screws can’t do that.

The Best of Two Worlds

Tec7 MS polymers are a more than worthy alternative to silicones. Many current-generation silicones are either of the acetic acid type — which cannot be used on acid-sensitive metals or cement and lime-based substrates — or of the neutral curing oxime type. These oximes, particularly MEK-oxime (MEKO), were classified as “suspected carcinogenic” by the EU in 2020.

Hybrid MS polymers have a clear advantage in chemical structure — hence the name “hybrid.” In terms of properties, it combines the best of silicone sealants (elasticity, longevity) and extremely strong PU adhesives (adhesion, paintability, easier to process).

Environmental Resistance and Durability

Tec7 demonstrates high durability under environmental stressors, supported by polymer stability and high resistance to degradation. It has low volatile organic compounds (VOCs) both during and after use.

Resistance Characteristics

  • UV stability — does not yellow or chalk like PU sealants
  • Water and saltwater resistance — suitable for marine environments and façade exposure
  • Processing temperature: -10°C to +40°C
  • Thermal stability range: typically -40°C to +90°C (short-term to +120°C)
  • Chemical resistance — stable against water, seawater, aliphatic solvents, oils, fats, dilute organic acids, and alkalis

Applications Enabled by These Properties

  • Façade engineering (movement joints, panel bonding)
  • Marine and offshore construction
  • Cold storage and HVAC installations
  • Industrial equipment assembly

In short, hybrid MS polymers are in many cases the better choice for both sealing and bonding — better adhesion, perfect processability, paintable, safe, and environmentally friendly.

The New Generation — nTec Polymer Technology

nTec Polymer Technology - next generation MS hybrid polymer

nTec Polymer Technology is Novatech International’s own high-performance polymer technology. Building on the known advantages of MS hybrid polymers in Tec7 products, nTec uses a new and more contemporary platform that builds up strength faster, adheres better, exhibits more elastic recovery capacity, and has better bacteria and mould resistance.

nTec Polymer Technology also takes a step forward in terms of durability, making it an extremely future-proof and sustainable solution for every construction professional.
