Substrate is the term used to refer to any solid substance to which another substance is applied. The second substance adheres to the substrate.

As a variation of ‘substratum’, the term can refer to a layer of residual bedrock, sediments or deposits that is found beneath the topsoil. For the construction of foundations, the substrate type (e.g. soil, rock, clay, and so on) will determine the foundation type that can be used for a building to be built on.

The term is also used for ‘filler’ products, in other words those that are incorporated into components such as brick, ceramics, concrete, plaster, and so on. With regard to firestopping, sealants and paint, the substrate is the surface to which the liquid- or paste-applied product is chemically bonded.
