Fast Drying And Setting Cement For Floor Screeds
Ideal Fast Track Solution
Workability Time: 20-30 minutes
light Foot Traffic After 2-3 hours
Colour: Grey
Size: 20kg Bag
Coverage: Consumption is 3.5-4.5 kg/m² per cm of thickness
Mapecem is a special hydraulic binder, which, when mixed with graded aggregates and water, has the extraordinary capacity to harden in just a few hours and to dry perfectly at whatever thickness within 24 hours (residual moisture less than 2% water by weight). Because of these characteristics and very high mechanical strength, Mapecem is the ideal fast-track solution allowing ceramic tiles to be installed within 3-4 hours and ready to receive resilient floor coverings such as vinyl, rubber, carpet etc within 24 hours.
Where to use:
Preparation of bonded, unbonded and floating screeds on existing and new slabs for the installation of wood, PVC, linoleum, ceramic tiles, carpeting or any other flooring where fast-drying is required for minimum downtime.
Some application examples:
• Preparation of screeds set to light foot traffic after 2-3 hours and perfectly dry after 24 hours, for the installation of parquet and resilient flooring.
• Preparation of screeds ready to receive ceramic tiles and natural stone after only 3-4 hours.
• Patching and repairing screeds in areas subject to continuous traffic (supermarkets, hospitals, airports, etc.).
• Preparation of screeds incorporating underfloor heating systems.
