Fosroc ANZ produces its speciality silicone range Nitoseal SC in Australia. Our manufacturing team on the New South Wales Central Coast use only the best materials to ensure high performance, superior adhesion, and no bubbling, blistering, or staining.
Being Australian made is a big factor in terms of quality assurance and what that means for performance, says Fosroc ANZ Technical Support Manager Martin Venn.
"The Nitoseal SC sealants are genuinely at the top of their class, and often uniquely outperform most sealants in their category due to the quality of the raw materials used and the brilliance behind the formulations," says Martin. "This makes them easy to recommend knowing they will have superior performance characteristics to others in their class."
The five sealants in the range offer a variety of specialised performance characteristics, including chemical resistance, movement accommodation and long-term durability. All provide excellent UV and weather resistance.
There are Nitoseal SC products designed for:
- building facades
- potable water storage
- correctional facilities

- aggressive chemical environments
- swimming pools
