Description Product Overview Mapei Ultrabond Eco 380 is a high-performance, water-based acrylic adhesive formulated for bonding a wide range of vinyl and PVC floor coverings in internal applications. It offers a strong, fast initial tack combined with a very long open time, allowing flexibility during installation while maintaining excellent adhesion and bond strength. Its formulation allows it to be used both as a traditional wet-bed adhesive on absorbent substrates and as a transitional pressure-sensitive adhesive on non-absorbent surfaces, providing versatility across different site conditions.
