Application

For use in domestic, commercial and industrial applications, such as street furniture, façades, terraces and balconies, swimming pools and fountains, saunas and spas.

Description

Highly deformable and workable hybrid gel adhesive for ceramic tiles and natural stone. It is eco-friendly and suitable for use with EMICODE® Green Building.

Features and benefits:

  • Suitable for internal and external use on walls and floors.
  • Very fast bonding: Adhesive strength five times superior to a class C2 (4.5 N/mm²) cement‑based adhesive after 24 hours.
  • Stress resistant: Ten times more deformable than a class S2 (>50 mm) cement‑based adhesive.
  • Easy to spread: Five times less viscous than a (35 Pa*s) polyurethane adhesive, transforms into a smooth gel like a cement‑based adhesive.
  • Long open time.
  • Shape memory.
  • Water resistant, with full wettability.
  • No shrinkage.
  • High structural adhesion.
  • Distributes tensile strength evenly.
  • Absorbs dynamic loads.
  • Eliminates the risk of frost.
  • High and low thickness.
  • Increases the performance.
  • Transfers the forces.
  • EMICODE® Green Building rating: Eco 2.
  • CE marked and contributes to LEED points.

Applications:

For use in domestic, commercial and industrial applications, such as street furniture, façades, terraces and balconies, swimming pools and fountains, saunas and spas.
