Anhydrite screed

Anhydrite screed produces a perfectly level floor quick and easy. Suitable for most floor coverings Anhydrite screed creates flat and smooth surface but is not suitable as a wearing surface.

Fast installation with an outstanding end result guaranteed, anhydrite screed is appropriate for domestic buildings and the majority commercial projects.

Also known by such terms as liquid screed, self leveling screed, free-flowing screed, Calcium sulphate based screed and Alpha-hemihydrate screed.

Anhydrite screed works extremely well with underfloor heating. Both warm water underfloor heating or wet underfloor heating and electrical underfloor heating. The way Anhydrite screed flows around underfloor heating pipes and cables makes it perfect for embedding the underfloor heating system.

If you’re looking for screed for underfloor heating then Anhydrite screed is often the screed of choice. Anhydrite screeds are perfect for integrating thermal and acoustic insulation.

Sand Cement screed

Sand Cement screed is an ideal screed for flooring applications.

Also known by such terms as traditional screed, conventional screed. Sand and Cement Screed can be mixed to different degrees. The most common of which are from 1:3 to 1:8. The mix used depends on the application.

Suitable for many floor applications, including monolithic, bonded and unbonded construction.

Fibre screed

Fibre screed has been developed to meet the increasing demand for factory-mixed cement : sand screeds of all mix designs incorporating an even dispersion of polypropylene fibres. The presence of suitable fibres can help to give a more cohesive mix and help control cracking caused by intrinsic stresses.

Applications: Fibre screeds are ideally suitable for use in hospitals, offices, superstores, industrial and other applications where there would be a high cost in loss of use through floor failure due to surface cracking of screed. Ideally compatible for use with underfloor heating systems.

Granolithic Screed

These have been used for many years in industrial situations and are cement based with selected aggregates. They are extremely hardwearing and will withstand high-pressure hot washing, disinfectants etc.

Granolithic Screed also known as ‘grano’ or ‘grano screed’ is often mixed on site and consists of grano dust, sand and cement.

Granolithic Screed is used for a large range of applications in the construction industry, most commonly for making up small areas of floor construction, benching in sewers and manholes, where its hard-wearing properties, its ability to be applied thinly (as thin as 6mm in certain conditions) and its low cost make it a popular and resilient surface. Granolithic Screed can also be used for steps, or anywhere else that a hard, smooth, concrete-like finish is required, including screeding-over existing concrete floors.

Polymer Screeds

Polymer Screeds have been developed to meet the demand for factory mixed cement:sand screed with the inclusion of a synthetic polymer resin to give increased toughness and bond properties. Polymer screeds are suitable for use on the following bases: Refurbishment work and for thinner, well-bonded screeds over suitable prepared concrete where it is impossible to achieve normal minimum thickness Solid concrete ground floor slabs, Precast concrete units or beams with reinforcement and In-situ suspended floors among others.

Lytag screed

Lytag produces lightweight aggregate with applications for drainage and filter media, structural lightweight concrete, floor and roof screeds, sports surfaces and horticultural media. Lytag is a versatile lightweight aggregate that has been manufactured since 1959. It uses fly ash, a waste product of coal burning power stations, as its raw material. Lytag has unlimited applications. Wherever there is a need for an aggregate which is strong, light and consistent then Lytag can provide an ideal solution.
