£3.49 ex. VATSika Wintermix is a chloride-free liquid admixture that improves the workability, frost resistance, and durability of mortar and concrete in sub-zero temperatures. It acts as an accelerator, enhancing freeze/thaw resistance down to -8°C while eliminating the need for a separate frostproofer. Non-corrosive to embedded metal, it also reduces bleeding, shrinkage, and segregation, ensuring better alignment and easier troweling. Additionally, it replaces lime in the mix, minimizing the risk of lime bloom and efflorescence, and allows for faster finishing times even in cold weather. &n -
Rated 5.00 out of 5£2.84 - £14.13 ex. VATFeb Febmix Admix SW is a liquid air-entraining plasticiser specifically designed to address the varying qualities of sand, cement, and water in South Wales and the West Country. It enhances mortar by providing a stable and uniform air bubble structure, improving resistance to freeze/thaw damage, reducing segregation and bleed, and increasing workability. It works with most types of Portland Cement and challenging sands, can replace lime, and is compatible with P.F.A.-containing mortars, offering easier and faster mortar application.

£37.15 ex. VATARDEX E 90 is a specialized synthetic dispersion designed to enhance the performance of ARDEX X 7 G, ARDEX X 7 W, and ARDEX S 21 cement-based adhesives. When diluted with an equal volume of water before mixing with the ARDEX adhesive powder, ARDEX E 90 significantly improves the adhesive properties of the mortar. The resulting mixture exhibits high adhesive strength, elasticity, and water-repellent qualities, while maintaining the workability, slump resistance, and open time characteristic of standard ARDEX adhesives. Substrate preparation follows the same guidelines as for ARDEX adh

£61.48 ex. VATThe addition of ARDEX E25 Mortar Admix to ARDEX subfloor smoothing compounds is recommended for applications requiring high abrasion or point load resistance, such as temporary wearing surfaces or when applying floor paint or coatings (with compatibility testing and trial applications). It is also ideal for floors with underfloor heating, ensuring the heating is off for 48 hours before and after screeding and then gradually brought up to temperature. Additionally, ARDEX E25 is used with ARDEX K 15 Rapid Drying Self-Levelling Compound to enhance strength and durability, particularly w

£54.51 ex. VATThe use of ARDEX E 25 Mortar Admix in conjunction with ARDEX sub-floor smoothing compounds is advisable in specific situations: when high abrasion or point load resistance is necessary, for temporary wearing surfaces, when a floor paint or thick coating will be applied later (ensure compatibility and conduct a trial application), and when the floor has underfloor heating. For floors with underfloor heating, it is essential to turn off the heating for 48 hours before applying the screed, leave it off for another 48 hours after application, and then gradually increase the temperature.
