Features & Benefits

• When mixed with water, Ultratop becomes a self-levelling compound which is easy to apply either by hand or pump in thickness from 5 to 40 mm
• After setting, which takes place in only a few hours, Ultratop has a high level of compressive and flexural strength, bonds perfectly to the substrate and thanks to its special composition, dries quickly so that any further finishing coat may be applied after a very short time
• Ultratop is classified as CT - C40 - F10 - A9 - A2 -s1 according to EN 13813:2002 Standards. CT refers to a cementitious- based product, C40 and F10 refer to the compressive strength and flexural strength, respectively, after 28 days, A9 is the Böhme abrasion-resistance coefficient and A2 -s1 is the fire-reaction class
• Around 3 days after application, Ultratop may be dry-polished using diamond grinding disks to get a shiny, reflective finish similar to natural stone
• Ultratop may also be used to make flooring with a “Terrazzo alla Veneziana” effect, in which the dry grinding process brings out the characteristics of the aggregates (colour, shape and size) to create flooring with an exclusive, original finish which is quick and easy to install

Recommendations & Limitations

• Do not add more water to the mix once Ultratop starts to set
• Do not add lime, cement, gypsum or other binders to the Ultratop mix
• Do not use Ultratop on substrates which are subject to rising damp - consult MAPEI/Rawlins technical team on 0113 2455450 (option 2) or send a message to [email protected]
• Do not use Ultratop for floating screeds. Ultratop must always be fixed to a solid, compact substrate
• Do not use Ultratop on wet surfaces
• Do not use Ultratop on metallic surfaces
• Do not use Ultratop at temperatures lower than 5°C or higher than 35°C
• The colours of floors made using Ultratop are not always uniform, a typical feature of cementitious-based products
• Apart from the inherent nature of this kind of product, differences in the various colours may also be caused by the way the product is applied. Also, it must be cast continuously without long pauses, in order to guarantee perfect flatness
