    Continue working in light rain

    A-Joint® Ready powered by ECCO cures through contact with the air, not by drying out. Installation in light rain or damp weather is therefore no problem. For landscaping contractors, that means: schedules remain achievable, no need to reschedule the site because the shower arrives an hour earlier, no half day lost on the labour cost side.
