ADHESIVES & SEALANTS H40: A TILING ADHESIVE YOU CAN CHOOSE
WITH CONFIDENCE Kerakoll’s H40, first launched in 1968, has evolved into one of the world’s best-selling tile adhesive ranges. The range is trusted by professionals worldwide to deliver consistent, reliable performance, even on the most challenging substrates and in demanding environments.
To ensure this performance translates from theory to practice, Kerakoll’s R&D team has developed a series of stringent proprietary tests, known as SAS Technology, designed to replicate the real-world stresses experienced by tiled installations on site, rather than relying solely on standard laboratory conditions.
The H40 range comprises four products, each designed to cover a broad spectrum of substrates, tile types and site conditions, giving installers a complete versatile system. The range is formulated using Gel-Technology which is known for its high performance, unique workability and excellent durability on site.
H40 GEL, THE TRUSTED FIRST CHOICE
Leading the range is H40 Gel, a standard-setting gel adhesive that combines ease of application with high performance. Its smooth, workable consistency allows for effortless trowelling, giving installers a high level of control during application. Its superior flow characteristics promote full wetting of the tile back, eliminating voids and delivering a complete structural bond. A non-slump formulation means that it supports the weight of large-format tiles. The extended open time prevents premature drying, reducing thickening and surface skinning, and allows for more controlled installation, particularly on larger areas or more complex layouts.
High initial grab prevents vertical slip, even with extra-large slabs, while S1 deformability accommodates movement within the substrate, reducing the risk of cracking in applications where flexibility is required.
H40 ADVANCED, ENGINEERED FOR FASTER INSTALLATION
H40 Advanced builds on these core characteristics as a rapid- setting gel adhesive, combining extended workability with a fast set to improve on-site efficiency. This balance allows installers to maintain productivity without compromising application quality, making it particularly suitable for time-sensitive projects.
H40 ULTIMATE, GUARANTEED EXTRA FLEXIBILITY
H40 Ultimate further develops the performance of the range as a rapid-setting gel adhesive with an S2 deformability rating. By reducing stress transfer between substrate and tile, it helps to minimise the risk of cracking and reduce the likelihood of costly call-backs.
H40 EXTREME, DEVELOPED FOR THE MOST DEMANDING CONDITIONS
The fourth product in the range is H40 Extreme, a hybrid gel adhesive engineered for the most demanding applications. It combines very high fluidity, up to five times lower viscosity than traditional polyurethane adhesives, with exceptional flexibility, delivering significantly higher deformability than standard S2 adhesives. This unique combination of properties allows it to

adapt to complex installation requirements where both flow and accommodating movement are critical.
Together, the four products within the H40 range provide a comprehensive, high-performance solution for modern tiling requirements. Whether the priority is workability, speed, flexibility, or adaptability to challenging substrates, the range offers a targeted solution without compromising overall performance.
