Soudal, the Belgian specialist manufacturer of sealants, polyurethane (PU) foams and adhesives for the construction industry, DIY and industrial applications, has launched a new device aimed at cutting down the inconveniences associated with the application of PU foam: the Genius Gun.

The device has been developed by the brand as part of their efforts to provide continuous innovation for the construction and DIY industries. The Genius Gun has been designed in such a way that makes it the easiest and most efficient way of handling PU foam.

A spokesman for Soudal said that providing ease and innovation for their customers was of paramount importance and the development of the Genius Gun was as a result of diligent work on overcoming PU problems.

“Regular users of hand held PU foam often experience inconveniences,” the spokesman said. “For instance: the need to hold the can and operate the adaptor simultaneously, the difficulty of applying the foam and especially the limitations of re-using the foam after the first usage of the can… the Genius Gun is a specially designed patented trigger mechanism ensuring precise application and removing the need for an additional gun.”

The built-in closing system with bung permits re-use of the can for up to 6-weeks.
