Everbuild 207 Zeromix CFF Frostproofer Mortar Admixture 25 Litre

REF: ZEROM25 | MPN: 488858 | Barcode: 5029347002763

Everbuild 207 Zeromix CFF is a liquid admixture designed to improve mortar and concrete performance in sub-zero conditions, combining freeze-thaw resistance with reduced setting times.

Who This Product Is For

This admixture is intended for builders, contractors, and serious DIY users working on masonry projects during colder months.

It suits projects where mortar or concrete needs to be placed and cured in temperatures below freezing, such as winter construction work, external repairs, and time-sensitive jobs that cannot wait for warmer weather.

Key Features

• Cold Weather Performance: Accelerates setting times in temperatures below freezing
• Air Entraining Properties: Enhances workability and reduces water content while improving resistance to freeze-thaw cycles
• Lime Replacement: Eliminates the need for lime in mixes, reducing the likelihood of efflorescence and lime bloom
• Non-Corrosive Formula: Safe to use around embedded metal components

Key Benefits

• Simplifies cold-weather construction by combining frostproofing and accelerating effects in one product
• Reduces the risk of cracking and crazing during curing
• Saves time by enabling faster finishing and easier alignment, even in adverse conditions
• Improves freeze-thaw resistance

Practical Applications

The Everbuild 207 Zeromix CFF is tailored for a range of tasks, including:

• Floor screeds requiring reduced setting times
• External and internal rendering projects
• Brick and block laying for both structural and non-load-bearing applications
• Repointing brickwork to enhance durability against cold weather
• Use in sand and cement-based mortars, renders, and screeds where frostproofing is essential

How This Fits Into a Typical Job

This admixture is added during the mixing stage of mortar or concrete preparation. It replaces traditional lime and separate frostproofing additives, becoming part of the wet mix before application to masonry surfaces.

Once incorporated into the mix, it allows work to continue in cold conditions where standard mortar would not set properly, enabling bricklaying, rendering, or screeding to proceed without weather-related delays.

How to Use

1. Mixing Preparation:
   • Add the product directly to the mixing water before combining it with dry materials
2. Surface Preparation:
   • Ensure all surfaces are clean, free from loose debris, and appropriately dampened where necessary
3. Mixing Ratios:
   • Incorporate into standard sand and cement mixes as required
4. Application:
   • Apply the prepared mix using standard tools, ensuring consistent coverage and alignment
5. Curing:
   • Allow sufficient curing time in accordance with the specific project and environmental conditions

Storage and Maintenance

• Store in a frost-free environment to maintain product effectiveness
• Reseal the container tightly after each use to prevent contamination
• Keep away from direct sunlight and high temperatures to ensure long-term usability

Not Suitable For

This product is not appropriate for:

• Applications where temperatures remain consistently above freezing
• Projects using specialised concrete mixes not based on sand and cement
• Use as a standalone waterproofing agent
• Applications requiring extended working times in warm conditions
