Beat the heat with Tremco’s sealants

By Emma Peterson. 

Even in the hottest season, you can trust these sealants to stick. 

According to data from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), July 2026 was the hottest month ever recorded in the United States (records begin in 1895). And this is not an isolated North American issue. CNN meteorologist Brandon Miller reported:  

July’s extreme heat was not limited to the United States, as much of Europe saw multiple heat waves that led to wildfire outbreaks at the end of the month and into early August in Spain, France, the United Kingdom, Greece and other countries. According to the Copernicus Climate Change Service, Western Europe has had its hottest first two months of summer on record so far. 

In the face of extreme weather like this, it is crucial to make sure the materials and products that are being installed on our roofs and other areas of the jobsite are durable and long-lasting.  

Tremco Construction Products Group combines the expertise of Tremco Roofing and Tremco Commercial Sealants and Waterproofing to offer these type of high-performing products.   Tremco’s sealant offerings are known for their: 

• Superior performance: Tremco sealants have  decades of proven performance and durability in a variety of residential and commercial applications. Many of them have exceptional UV and puncture resistance that makes them perfect for battling even the harshest conditions.  
• Easy adhesion: Their various  silicone, urethane and hybrid sealant technologies are suitable for use in a wide range of situations, often including porous substrates and even water immersion.  
• Adaptive movement: Designed with movement capability ranging from ± 25% to ± 50%, these sealants resist shrinking, cracking and yellowing for long-term resistance in all weather conditions. 
• Fast turnaround: Additionally, their sealants go down quickly, making it easy to keep your team out of the sun by installing during cooler parts of the day. Some of their products can even be tack-free in just 30-45 minutes!  

And in an effort to make their high-performance products more accessible, Tremco has released a line of sealants in the retail space, known as the Vulkem Pro Series, to make it easier than ever for contractors to make sure they have the right tool for the job. As Nathon Laws (a national operations manager at Tremco), put it, “A lot of contractors that primarily buy through commercial distribution find themselves in retail centers looking for products at night, on the weekend, on a holiday, when their traditional supplier isn't able to supply to them. We are trying to make sure they have the products they need even in those scenarios.”
