Features and benefits:

  • Consistent mix proportions.
  • Consistent quality of mortar.
  • Correct choice of sands.
  • Ideal for the repair of historic buildings.
  • Can be re-worked up to the point of set.
  • Will keep indefinitely as long as the container is air tight
  • and evaporation of moisture does not occur.
  • Is pre-mixed so there is little or no need to re-mix or add water.
  • Is breathable and enables moisture to evaporate.
  • More flexible than Portland cement-based mortars, which means that expansion joints are not always necessary.
  • Excellent vapour permeability, which enables the building to “breathe”.
