HOW TO ACHIEVE A SEAMLESS SUBFLOOR


For the perfect floor you need the perfect subfloor. Here, global manufacturer of


high-performance building products, ARDEX, explains how this can be achieved with its latest product offering.


ARDEX’S company heritage dates back more than 60 years and it has remained at the forefront of the UK flooring industry throughout this time.


In 2006, ARDEX launched the next generation of latex-based levelling compounds, ARDITEX NA; which, like its predecessor, reduces the need for intensive preparation and priming, saving the professional flooring contractor both time and money, as well as offering a number of unique additional benefits.


Now, ARDEX have introduced another groundbreaking product to the market, the water-based levelling and smoothing compound, ARDEX K 39.


IMPRESSIVE WET


EDGE TIME With a wet edge time of up to 40 minutes, the contractor has more time to smooth and finish, without having to rush. Fresh applications of ARDEX K 39 can be easily smoothed into existing pre-applied material, eliminating visible joint marks and ridges between mixes.
