Surface Bonder Xi+®
Seaming made simple. Surface Bonder Xi+® is the latest generation of pre color matched adhesive for the surfacing industry, building on decades of fabricator trust and field-proven performance. Available in more than 300 pre-mixed colors and ideal for seaming, mitering, laminating and more, Xi+® is the trusted choice of fabrication professionals for today’s diverse project requirements.
Expanded performance for modern substrates Xi+® has proven performance on natural stones including granite, quartz and engineered stone, sold surface, and other popular surfaces. New Xi+® features enhanced bonding capabilities and substrate compatibility, delivering particularly improved performance on porcelain, marble, and sintered surfaces—materials increasingly specified in contemporary design projects. The formulation delivers a consistent working time of 10-15 minutes with a 20-30 minute fixture time, while maintaining the flow and sag properties fabricators know and trust. With Greenguard certification for indoor air quality standards, Xi+® addresses the evolving needs of surface fabrication professionals.
