Polymer Screed

Product Details:

Indurit is a sand cement screed mix for floors, comprising fine mineral aggregates, silica sand, polymers and colourants. It is applied to the top of a concrete base to create a final floor finish.

Features:

• Abrasion and impact resistant: The nature of this particular granolithic screed mix means it offers a high level of protection and a durable floor surface. It offers good abrasion resistance and resistance to impact, and hence it can be used in many industrial applications. (If this is particularly important, you may wish to consider one of our surface hardeners.)
• Resistant to food substances: Indurit is designed to withstand many of the common substances found in food manufacturing, which can be destructive to untreated concrete. Sugar, fats, oils, salt, pickling vinegars, blood – Indurit withstands them all.
• Chemical resistant and easy to clean: Indurit will also resist damage from most diluted chemicals, so will endure the regular cleaning which is essential in a hygienic food manufacturing environment.
• Anti-slip floor coating; dust resistant: Indurit helps keep staff safe at work by providing an anti-slip floor coating – particularly important in environments where there is a risk of fluids on the floor. It resists dust infiltration too.
• Temperature resistant: Indurit granolithic screed will perform in a wide range of temperatures, from -40 deg C up to 80 deg C without thermal shock. So it’s equally suitable for freezer stores and bakeries! If there are likely to be constant or sudden changes to the floor’s temperature, then these parameters are likely to be reduced (eg, a maximum of 60 deg C).
• Range of colours: Indurit is available in a wide range of standard colours. So your floor can reflect your brand colours; or you can choose colours which ensure spills can be easily seen (eg, white flour on a dark coloured floor).

Application details:

• The concrete or screed substrate must be clean, prepared and saturated with water.
• Indurit has a two-stage application process.
• Firstly, a bonding layer needs to be applied to the substrate.
• Secondly, while the bonding layer is still wet, the mortar layer is added on top to an average thickness of 10mm, and finished using a screed bar and power trowel.

Applications:

• Food processing plants, including wet process areas, salting and curing areas
• Abattoirs, canneries, breweries
• External pavements and quaysides
• Storage areas
• General industrial use

Product Details:

Indurit Topping is a decorative screed coating for walls and floors. Comprising white or grey cement, aggregates and resins, it can be used on internal and external surfaces to give a waxed decorative concrete appearance. It is supplied as a dry screed mix powder and separate resin, which should be blended together on site prior to application.

Features:

• Transform any surface: With Indurit Topping, you can transform any surface to give it a sleek finish. This decorative concrete screed can be smoothed on top of tiles, plaster, plasterboard, cement, wood, metal and more.
• Natural colour and options: Indurit Topping comes in its natural white or grey colours as standard – but it’s easy to add pigment to the mix to create your own choice of colour if you wish (please speak to one of our advisers for guidance). You can also paint Indurit Topping once it has hardened, or use a finishing resin. Because it can be used on floors and walls, you can give a whole room the same treatment – or choose contrasting colours for a dramatic effect.
• Intriguing finishes: With Indurit Topping, you can achieve a variety of surface finishes – from the modern sleek and smooth look to rustic textured finishes.

Application details:

• Indurit Topping is applied similarly to a render, with a small smoother.
• It is a two-stage process, with the thickness being 0.5mm to 1.5mm.
• After an initial primer, a thin layer of Indurit Topping is applied, with a second coat following after at least 2 hours.
• Compacting the mortar after both layers is vital to ensure the right effect is created, and that the surface is hard and durable.

Product Details:

Indurit Spray is a thin spray-on liquid screed. It comprises a powder containing a water-based binder, and a separate liquid resin. Mixed together on site, they create a viscous substance which can be sprayed (using a compressed air spray gun) onto walls and floors in thin layers to provide a decorative finish.

Features:

• Stenciling for impact: Clients who specify or use Indurit Spray often want to create a visual effect as well as colour. By using a stencil, you can create patterns, designs and even brand logos. For something different, you can create a flamed effect using one colour for a base coat, and a different colour on top.
• Choice of substrates: Indurit Spray is a versatile liquid screed. It can be applied to concrete slabs, concrete blocks, paving and mortar finishes. It can be also be used on tiles and plasterboard if a suitable primer is used.
• New build and refurbishment: Indurit Spray is equally suited to new buildings or refurbishment projects. It’s a cost-effective way to breathe new life into old structures, internally or externally.

Application details:

• The surface must be clean and free from anything which would prevent good adhesion.
• An appropriate primer should be used, depending on the nature of the surface to be coated.
• Indurit Spray is applied using compressed air equipment: a compressor and spray gun with reserve.
• The first coat of Indurit Spray is a base coat to even out the surface.
• Once this is completely dry, after about 2 or 3 hours, a second coat can be sprayed (using a stencil if desired).
• A protective resin coating should be applied to the finished surface. Please refer to the product data sheet for full details of this process.
• The surface will be ready to walk on after 12 hours.

Product Details:

Indurit Flow is a self-levelling screed, which is applied to the top of a concrete or sand/cement screed base. It can be polished to create a final floor finish, or can have resin or thermoplastic coatings added on top. Comprising cement, aggregates, pigments and admixtures, it is supplied as a powder to be mixed with water on site.

Features:

• Fast setting: Indurit Flow sets quickly! In just five hours it is ready for pedestrians, and reaches its full load capacity after only seven days. So it’s ideal for projects where there is time pressure.
• Easy to apply: Like its name suggests, Indurit Flow is applied as a liquid which can be pumped onto the substrate. Because it is a self-levelling screed, it’s easy to achieve a smooth surface; and up to 1000m² can be created as a fast-track installation
• Beautiful finish: When polished, Indurit Flow gives a smooth, attractive, reflective finish. Perfect for stylish industrial buildings or urban homes – and easy to clean too.
• Colour choices: Bring your floor to life with a choice of colours! Available in red, white, yellow, natural, light grey and green, there are plenty of options, so you can choose the colour most suited to your building.
• Energy saving light reflectivity: Choosing a light colour with a polished finish will make the surface light reflective. This may reduce the lighting needs in the space and help to save on energy consumption.

Application process:

• The concrete or screed substrate must be clean and free from oil and grease.
• A bonding agent should then be applied, choosing the right product and coverage depending on the porosity of the substrate.
• Indurit Flow self-levelling screed will need to be mixed on site with clean water and applied promptly, and in one pass, to a thickness of between 4 and 15mm.
• A final sealant should also be applied.

Applications:

• Industrial floors
• Food and beverage production, such as ready meal manufacture and breweries (not under constant water)
• Decorative flooring applications, including residences
• Internal use only
