DCM-Free Adhesives: Strong, Safe, and Reliable for Every Job

Whether you’re tackling a DIY project, repairing furniture, or working on home improvements, the right adhesive makes all the difference. At MyToolkit, we stock the Vertabond range of DCM-free adhesives, designed to provide strong, dependable bonds without the harmful solvents.

 

Why Choose DCM-Free Adhesives

DCM, or dichloromethane, has long been used in traditional solvent-based adhesives for its quick and powerful bonding. It is often found in laminates, furniture assembly, and other household applications. However, DCM can be harmful if inhaled, and exposure may cause dizziness, respiratory irritation, or other health concerns, particularly in poorly ventilated spaces.

DCM-free adhesives offer a safer alternative without compromising on performance. They provide the same reliable, strong bonds that professionals and DIY enthusiasts rely on, but with lower fumes and easier handling. They are better for your home, better for your health, and better for the environment, making them a smart choice for everyday projects.

 

Vertabond: Trusted Adhesives for Every Home Project

Vertabond has earned a reputation for high-performance adhesives that are easy to use and consistently reliable. Whether you’re working with wood, laminates, plastics, or metals, there’s a Vertabond adhesive to suit your project.

Each product is formulated to provide strong grab, predictable curing, and long-lasting bonds. Even on challenging surfaces, Vertabond adhesives hold fast, giving you confidence that your projects will last.

 

Contact Adhesives: The Vertabond Q Series

For quick, secure bonding, the Vertabond Q Series contact adhesives are ideal. They allow materials to be positioned and held firmly without clamps in most applications, making them perfect for laminates, veneers, plastics, metals, and sheet materials such as MDF or plywood.

The Q Series includes a mix of traditional and DCM-free options, and some are fire-rated for added safety. This makes it easy to pick the right product for your home or workshop projects.
