Velocity Hurricane Zones: Titebond Sealants Exceed Tough Building Code Requirements
Titebond’s WeatherMaster™ Metal Roof Sealant and WeatherMaster ULTIMATE MP Sealant have been approved for use in Miami-Dade County after receiving the “Notice of Acceptance” (NOA) as approved products for use on buildings in the county. Miami-Dade County, located in the southeast tip of Florida, is one of two “high-velocity hurricane zones” (HVHZ) in that state and maintains strict building codes to protect against storm damage.
We are extremely excited about becoming an approved building product in Miami-Dade,” said David Braun, vice president, market development.“Few other sealant manufacturers have passed testing required for approval, and the fact that two of our sealants made the grade says a lot about them and about the WeatherMaster brand.”
