Tile adhesive will gradually replace cement mortar in construction

With the traditional method of using cement mortar with low cost, it is possible to use tiles and flooring at the same time so it is still popularly used. However, with many advantages, tile adhesives are gradually becoming new products in the market. This is also a trend that has been used for a long time in the world.

Currently, advanced countries in the world almost no longer use traditional cement tiles as in Vietnam. Some countries also have regulations to force all construction contractors to use tile adhesives , such as in Singapore.

In Vietnam, because this product line had to be imported before, the price was quite high, thus limiting users. But up to now, there have been many foreign enterprises investing in and having a factory producing this kind of material in the country so the products and prices are competitive. Moreover, some domestic enterprises with modern equipment technology and experienced staff in the field of manufacturing construction materials in general and cement products in particular have researched and produced. and providing new construction materials, equivalent quality and competitive prices to help consumers choose more freely. There are many types of tile adhesives on the market. Some popular and well-rated lines like Boncera, Gritone, Weber, Skymax .

With many outstanding advantages, tile adhesives are expected to gradually replace cement mortar in construction.

Tile adhesives are pre-mixed mixes and include carefully calculated components such as Portland OPG cement, carefully selected fine sand and additives to improve the properties of tile adhesives. . High-quality tile adhesives can also be used to tile tiles on old tile surfaces, on smooth cement surfaces, on wood surfaces (with linings) or on other special surfaces.

Compared with cement slurry, tile adhesives being used in many current works show outstanding advantages thanks to convenience and ease of use. Just mix the product with clean water at the right rate, it can be constructed, the bricks do not need to be soaked in water and can be used immediately. If the traditional method has to be soaked for about 1 day, take time.

The tile adhesive products often have good adhesion, high polymer content, so the mortar does not shrink so the bonding effect is quite high, preventing the tiles from peeling, the sound of bouncing when you step up. The time allowed for construction before long dry adhesive allows workers to adjust the tiles easily.

In addition, tile adhesive is highly applicable when it can be applied to almost all types of tiles with smooth and hard-to-adhere surfaces such as mosaic glass tiles, large-size granite tiles, and on dry walls. old brick surface, .

By using serrated flying to paste tiles, it takes less material. The tile adhesive is much thinner than the sand cement paste, which also makes the construction structure lighter. In general, the price of this material is quite reasonable, only about 5-15,000 / kg, depending on the type of application. A 25kg tile adhesive can be used to stick tiles to an area of ​​about 6-7m². Calculated, this cost is not much, but it brings long-term effectiveness for the project.
