Wood was the first material used to build boats, and again it enjoys a leap forward thanks to new construction techniques, made possible by the new technological materials available. C-systems’ Red Glue was an important step forward for wooden boat construction, an excellent glue for all work requiring great reliability. The “sailors” very quickly nicknamed it in an unforgettable way “RED GLUE” for its characteristic dusky red colour. C-systems’ Red Glue , is EN301-302 of the types I and II approved for the construction of hulls, boats, laminates, helms, keels, frames, and for bonding all timbers exposed to the elements and to the most stress. You mix it by weight in proportions of 100 g of resin to 20 g of powder (hardener). C-systems’ Red Glue produces an extremely strong bond that is resistant to periodic and continuous exposure in boiling and cold water, to jets of hot or cold air, and is proof against fungus and rot, and is unaffected by almost all solvents. Marine plywood is important and essential both in GRP constructions (ceilings, walls, furniture, etc) and structurally, as for architraves and wooden spans, and it is bonded with chemical resin glue like Red Glue and meets the requirements of the various International Registers. C-systems’ Red Glue is also available in 1.2 kg packs. You can use it anywhere and the detailed notes on each pack suggest new and important applications. In particularly cold periods with temperatures below 10° C, it is advisable to slowly and uniformly warm the components until the reaction is perfect. This is a general rule that applies to all paint and glue products, because the thermal inertia, which these products incorporate over night, has to be considered.
Also their base is subject to this process, so with low temperatures we recommend using a hair dryer or a hot air pistol, or even better, a hot air stove to warm up the part involved. A very good idea would be to equip yourself with an infrared quartz lamp to create the correct “climate”.
So we can be sure that the quality and reliability of work are always exceptional, and provide the best performance over time.
For filling and to rationalise the use of glue in construction we can offer C-Systems' White Glue CASCAMITE.

C-systems' White Glue CASCAMITE is the waterproof glue in powder form, conforming to EUROPEAN STANDARDS BS EN 301-302, it is a heat hardening glue based on urea formaldehyde with hardener and filler incorporated.
C-systems' White Glue CASCAMITE enjoys growing success both from professional users as well as from amateurs, because it unifies a very simple and convenient application with a secure result, that makes it indispensable for all those looking for the best.
C-systems' White Glue CASCAMITE means more productivity, ease of application, work security and less cost. And even more important, it doesn't stain wood, doesn't discolour painted parts, and furthermore, it doesn't cause problems with the heads of nails or screws used in the work.
C-systems' White Glue CASCAMITE strongly bonds all wood, plastic laminates, and is particularly appreciated where great resistance to stress, heat and humidity are required.
Highly professional yards that require the best make great use of it, and also many rowing boats are bonded with C-Systems' White Glue CASCAMITE.
C-systems' White Glue CASCAMITE is available starting from 0.75 kg packs, and is prepared by taking 100 g of powder to 50 g of water, mix well and the glue is ready. If you don't have a weighing scale then proceed by volume, taking three and a half measures of powder to one measure of water (during winter periods make sure the water has a temperature between 15 and 25 °C).
C-systems' White Glue CASCAMITE is used hot, or being a gap filling glue (like Red Glue) cold to fill small gaps, which forms a truly unified bond.
Civil engineering works with wooden architraves spanning over 20 m prove the high quality and reliability of this product.
