On this page, you’ll find all the information you need on how to find, use, and automate "Sealant" iconSealant production in Starfield. We detail some of the best planets and biomes to find Sealant, as well as provide an exhaustive list of all Sealant uses in Outpost building, weapon and spacesuit modifications, and more!

Sealant is a glue like substance that is common in crafting, research, weapon mods and more.

Best Sealant Farming Locations in Starfield

Both flora and fauna can be a source of sealant but you can only automate Sealant production using the Greenhouse. The bonus is that the Greenhouse is a more economical module than the Animal Husbandry Facility as all you’ll need is water and power to start producing sealant. Below we’ll provide a list of different flora and fauna that can be harvested for Sealant.

Flora/Fauna Biomes Planet Location Examples

To be able to automate the production of Sealant, you’ll need to first scan a flora to 100%. Then, you’ll be able to set up a Greenhouse to start your own supply of sealant. Head over to our guide on how to set up a Greenhouse for more information!

Pharmaceutical Lab Uses

In addition to weapon and spacesuit modifications, Sealant also has a big part to play in the production of Aid supplies at the "Pharmaceutical Lab" iconPharmaceutical Lab. You’ll need x1 Sealant and x1 "Fiber" iconFiber to make "Bandages" iconBandages, and you’ll also need x1 Sealant and x1 Structural to make "Immobilizer" iconImmobilizers. These supplies can then be used to craft higher-tier, more effective medical aids - as long as you’ve done the research!

Earth has long been abandoned, but there are plenty of other planets in different star systems where humans have ventured and settled. You have the freedom to create your own character with a unique background, but the main story will take you through a series of adventures as you uncover more information about mysterious artifacts which create gravitational anomalies. Along the way, you can build and customize your own space ship, establish your own outpost, befriend and romance new companions, and more. As a Bethesda game, you can also expect to see a lot of creative mods which have the potential to change your experience of the base game, or take it in an entirely new direction.
