H.B. Fuller, a global player in adhesives, has launched Millennium PG-1 EF ECO2, a commercial roofing adhesive designed to enhance installation efficiency and environmental responsibility. Unlike traditional adhesives that rely on chemical blowing agents, this high-performance adhesive utilizes naturally occurring atmospheric gases.
ECO2 Driven™ Technology Reduces Environmental Impact
Millennium PG-1 EF ECO2 features H.B. Fuller patented ECO2 Driven™ technology, eliminating high Global Warming Potential (GWP) propellants and Hydrofluoroolefins (HFOs). The innovation significantly reduces the environmental impact of adhesive application while maintaining superior adhesion strength. The product meets or exceeds North American environmental standards and aligns with emerging global regulations for commercial roofing.
User-Friendly Design Supports Sustainability Goals
Designed for ease of use, Millennium PG-1 EF ECO2 streamlines roofing installation with a canister-based system that minimizes job site waste. These canisters cover large areas per unit and, when properly emptied, can be recycled based on local regulations.
“H.B. Fuller is committed to creating innovative solutions that make everyday products cleaner, faster, and more effective,” said SuAnne Stevens, Global Vice President of Commercial Roofing. Stevens added, “By pairing this roofing adhesive delivery method with ECO2 Driven technology, we offer a contractor-friendly solution that improves both environmental impact and working conditions”.
Equipment-Free Application for Versatile Use
Building on the success of its predecessor, Millennium PG-1 EF ECO2 maintains the “EF” (equipment-free) designation. The two-part low-rise foam adhesive combines Part A and Part B through dual canisters and a specialized spray nozzle. This unique nozzle allows contractors to seamlessly switch between ribbon or spatter spray, making it easier to install insulation boards and fleece-backed roofing membranes with a single, transport-friendly product.
Adhesives Outperform Mechanical Fastening
Compared to mechanical fasteners, adhesives like Millennium PG-1 EF ECO2 eliminate thermal bridging, achieve high wind uplift ratings, and reduce the risk of leaks or building damage during re-roofing. These benefits reinforce H.B. Fuller’s commitment to both innovation and sustainability.
Enhancing Performance and Sustainability
As reported by finance.yahoo.com, Millennium PG-1 EF ECO2 features industry-leading performance and patented ECO2 Driven™ technology. It helps contractors and building owners achieve their operational and sustainability goals while delivering unmatched value to the commercial roofing industry.
