What is Cemfloor?
With the addition of Cemfloor the screed’s performance is increased significantly and can be applied to a wide range of floors. Cemfloor binder is simply mixed with cement, water, and a suitable sand to create a high-performance screed which complies with EN 13813.
Can Cemfloor be used for Underfloor Heating?
Cemfloor screeds are very responsive to underfloor heating; due to the fact that they can be laid in very thin sections and have a high thermal conductivity of up to 2.9w/mk.
Is Cemfloor faster drying than other screeds?
Since Cemfloor is a cement based screed; floor coverings can be applied much faster than calcium sulphate screeds which need to be dried to a final moisture content of 0.5%CM which can delay floor finishings by months.
Cemfloor can be tiled at a final moisture content of 3.5%CM and timber floors can be installed at a final moisture content of 2.5%CM; speeding up the entire build process.
Compared with other liquid screeds which generally need to be force dried with underfloor heating; Cemfloor screeds can be used in non heated floors as it doesn’t require force drying to remove moisture. Using the correct tile adhesives; tiles can be placed in as little as 5 days in non-heated floors and after 16 days in heated floors once the heating has been commissioned.
What type of Substrate can Cemfloor be used on?
Cemfloor Screed is designed for use as a bonded thick levelling screed on concrete, as a floating screed over thermal or acoustic insulation, or as an unbonded screed on top of a plastic membrane.
Which types of floor coverings is Cemfloor compatible with?
Cemfloor is compatible with all types of floor coverings, cementitious adhesives, damp proof membranes and floor levellers.
