  • WISA Bonded Floor Solution


Installation-Ready, Robust and Secure

Thanks to an innovative system for mounting floors to trailer bodies developed by Dow Automotive Systems and UPM, a fully bonded solution is now available to trailer manufacturers.

The WISA Bonded Floor Solution combines WISA plywood flooring with specially developed BETAMATE™ polyurethane adhesives. The system enables the floor to be bonded directly to the trailer body, eliminating the need for mechanical fasteners such as screws during installation. It significantly simplifies the installation process and improves chassis strength and rigidity, contributing to design flexibility. The lightweight solution also offers the potential to increase payload.
