REF: LAT5 | MPN: 489452 | Barcode: 5029347003029

A specially formulated polymer emulsion designed to boost the performance of powdered floor levelling compounds and tile adhesives by improving flexibility, adhesion, and strength.

Who This Product Is For

This additive is intended for flooring professionals and serious DIY users working with floor levelling compounds and tile adhesives. It suits those who need enhanced performance for flooring installations in both residential and commercial settings.

It is designed for projects that require movement accommodation, improved bonding, and increased durability in flooring systems.

Key Features

• Enhanced bonding properties for superior adhesion between screeds and substrates
• Improved flexibility with increased movement tolerance for areas prone to minor structural shifts
• Salt resistance that protects against salt permeation and extends the lifespan of screeds and adhesives
• Thinner application capability allowing for thinner layers without compromising strength or stability
• Reduced surface dusting for a cleaner and smoother finish
• Improved frost durability to withstand cold weather conditions

Practical Applications

The Everbuild 709 Febflor Floor Flex Plus Latex Liquid Additive strengthens and improves the flexibility of floor levelling compounds and tile adhesives. It excels in applications such as smoothing uneven floors, preparing subfloors for tiling, and improving adhesive properties for flooring installations. This additive delivers lasting results in residential and commercial settings.

How This Fits Into a Typical Job

This additive is used during the mixing stage of flooring preparation. It is combined with powdered levelling compounds or tile adhesives before application to enhance their performance characteristics. The improved mixture is then applied to the substrate as part of the floor preparation or tile installation process.

The additive works by modifying the properties of the base materials, providing better flexibility and adhesion that becomes integral to the finished floor system during the curing phase.

Specifications

• Product type: Latex liquid additive
• Pack size: 5 litre container
• Mix ratio: 5 litres mixes with one 20kg bag of self-levelling compound or tile adhesive
