A secure, leak-free, totally reliable seal is vital to the integrity of any caravan or motorhome build. That’s why leading leisure vehicle manufacturers use HS Butyl’s high performance CTS (Caravan Tape Super) tapes in the construction of their touring caravans and motorhomes.
Caravan manufacturers are constantly looking at new and better ways to construct vehicles to ensure a leak-free construction. HS Butyl supplies caravan building companies with miles of single- and double-sided CTS tape every year for a wide variety of joint sealing tasks to ensure a leak-free, reliable, consistent joint throughout the vehicle’s life.
“Having all of the joints on our vehicles stay leak-free for many years is absolutely vital to the quality of our vehicles and our reputation as the UK’s premier manufacture. We only use HS Butyl’s tapes because we know that they will give us the top-notch seal we are looking for with a level of integrity that our extended warrantees can rely on.”
The beauty of CTS tape is that it is so easy to use – production teams love the stuff because it’s highly conformable and simple and accurate to use without waste and mess on the shop floor. And HS Butyl’s commitment to customer service means that they can fulfil orders OTIF to suit modern ‘just in time’ manufacturing schedules.
