Cemfloor offers a number of benefits over alternative liquid screeds:
- Thinner sections compared to traditional screeds, 25mm above underfloor heating pipes
- Larger floor area without joints (up to 150m2)
- Exceptional thermal conductivity up to 2.9W/m.k)*
- Reduced drying times of 10 days for tiling and 28 days for wooden floors in non heated floors, in heated floors 14 days for tiling and 21 days for wooden floors (depending on drying conditions and floor coverings)
- Self compacting – no voids around under floor heating pipes
- Can be polished for final floor finish (consult technical personnel)
- All floor coverings can be applied with no need for surface sanding
- More thermal insulation can be used in floors, compared to traditional sand and cement screed which leadsd to a better u value for your building
- Minimal drying shrinkage (<0.1%)
- Foot traffic after 24–48 hours
- Can be applied in wet areas
- Can be force dried after 7 days
- Compatible with all cement based tile adhesive, no priming of surface required
- No surface laitance (dust) after curing
- Easy installation; up to 1000m2 per day (reduces time & costs)
- Lower running costs for underfloor heating systems when using Cemfloor. This is due to the exceptional thermal conductivity of up to 2.9/mk and the ability to lay thinner screeds over the underfloor heating pipes.
