For many companies with a research and development component, the laboratory is tucked away somewhere in the back of the plant; a reluctant necessity or a neglected afterthought. At General Sealants^®, our lab is at the heart of our business, philosophically and geographically. The proof of this commitment is illustrated in the location of our lab, right up front with management and marketing. Our lab is both the crown jewel and the backbone of our enterprise. It’s where we create excitement, where new custom solutions and innovations are discovered. It’s where we break ground every day.

As proud as we are of our past, it’s our passion for the future that drives us forward. This dedication spurs us to constantly develop products that will make our customers’ use of sealants even more effective. Our commitment to research allows us to work effectively with clients like you who have very specific needs. A significant portion of our work revolves around the development of highly customized applications requested by our customers. One size does not fit all at General Sealants^®.

Customers know that our formulations exist consistently at the leading edge. We employ a quality and systems-focused approach which results in unmatched products and service that have built a worldwide reputation for integrity and innovation. Starting back in our founder’s garage, we’ve accumulated over 50 years of contiguous research with regards to the chemistry, production, and testing of extruded sealants. We firmly believe that our wealth of in-house knowledge and expertise remains unsurpassed in the industry. When it comes to R&D, General Sealants^® is second to none.
