High-performance Solutions for Durable, Efficient and Sustainable Construction

Building, construction and infrastructure applications require materials that deliver long-term durability, structural reliability and efficient processing. From industrial flooring and concrete protection to coatings, inks, sealants, insulation systems and coil coatings, formulators need technologies that improve strength, adhesion, surface protection, chemical resistance and resistance to moisture, abrasion and environmental stress.

We support the construction industry with a broad portfolio of curing agents, crosslinkers, polyurethane building blocks, specialty solvents and waterborne technologies. Our solutions help improve mechanical performance, load resistance, corrosion protection, flexibility, curing speed, surface quality and long-term durability across epoxy, polyurethane, waterborne, solventborne and powder-based systems.

With proven brands such as ANCAMIDE®, ANCAMINE®, ANQUAMINE®, AMICURE®, VESTAMIN®, VESTANAT®, VESTAGON® and VESTASOL®, Evonik Crosslinkers helps customers develop high-performance systems for flooring, coatings, sealing, reinforcement, insulation, surface protection and continuous metal coating applications. These technologies support safer, more durable and more efficient construction materials for demanding commercial, industrial and infrastructure environments.

Durability and Load Resistance

Epoxy flooring systems are widely used in commercial, industrial and infrastructure environments where long-term durability, chemical resistance and mechanical strength are essential. They protect concrete substrates from wear, staining, chemical exposure, moisture and mechanical stress, while also offering decorative and functional surface finishes.

Our portfolio of epoxy curing agents and hardeners support self-leveling floors, trowelable systems, concrete primers, topcoats, grouts, mortars, moisture vapor barriers and industrial flooring applications. ANCAMIDE® and ANCAMINE® technologies help improve adhesion, chemical resistance, abrasion resistance and fast return to service. ANQUAMINE® waterborne epoxy curing agents support lower-VOC flooring systems with strong adhesion and reliable performance.

VESTAMIN® technologies can support polymer flooring systems where tailored curing, toughness and mechanical strength are needed. Together, these solutions help formulators develop flooring systems that combine load resistance, application efficiency, durability and long-lasting surface protection.

Performance and Surface Quality

Coatings and inks used in building, construction and infrastructure applications must deliver reliable surface protection, strong adhesion and consistent visual quality. They help protect substrates such as concrete, metal, glass, wood and mineral surfaces while supporting durability, weather resistance, corrosion protection and efficient processing.

Our technologies help improve coating hardness, scratch resistance, chemical resistance, flexibility and film performance. VESTAMIN® technologies support high-performance crosslinking and curing in systems requiring strong mechanical and chemical resistance. ANCAMINE® and ANQUAMINE® technologies help formulators develop protective and floor coating systems with reliable adhesion and durability.

VESTAGON® crosslinkers can support powder coating systems requiring chemical resistance and durable surface performance, while VESTASOL® solvents and intermediates help optimize formulation and application behavior in coatings and inks. These solutions help formulators achieve durable protection, attractive surfaces and reliable processing across demanding construction-related applications.

Protection and Long-Term Reliability

Sealing, insulation, reinforcement and surface protection systems play an important role in improving the durability and reliability of buildings and infrastructure. They help protect structures from moisture, weathering, corrosion, mechanical stress and environmental exposure, while supporting long-term performance and reduced maintenance needs.

VESTANAT® technologies support polyurethane-based systems used in construction sealants, protective coatings, membranes and surface protection applications. These technologies can help improve flexibility, weatherability, mechanical strength, chemical resistance and long-term durability in both one-component and two-component polyurethane systems.

In demanding construction applications, reliable sealing and protection are essential to prevent water ingress, extend service life and maintain structural integrity. By supporting robust polyurethane formulation design, we help customers develop systems that protect surfaces, improve material performance and support durable construction solutions.

Resilience and Process Efficiency

Coil coatings are used on metal surfaces where durability, flexibility, corrosion resistance and attractive appearance must be combined with efficient continuous processing. In building and infrastructure applications, coated metal is used for façades, roofing, panels, architectural components and other construction elements exposed to weathering and mechanical stress.

VESTANAT® aliphatic and cycloaliphatic polyisocyanates support weather-resistant coating systems with strong durability, chemical resistance and long-term surface protection. VESTAGON® crosslinkers can help improve resistance properties and coating performance where powder coating technologies are used. VESTASOL® solvents and intermediates support efficient formulation and application behavior.

Together, these technologies help formulators develop coil coating systems that combine flexibility, corrosion resistance, surface quality and efficient curing. This supports high-performance metal finishes that maintain their protective and aesthetic properties throughout service life.
