DESCRIPTION

Two-component reactive adhesive Component A consists of inert

load, epoxy-polyurethane synthetic resins featuring a fine grain

size and organic additives. Component B consists of organic

catalysts.

ADVANTAGES

• Suitable for indoor and outdoor applications on floor and wall

even in severe usage conditions.

• Multi-purpose adhesive suitable for bonding various materials

even on non-traditional substrates such as metal, fibreglass, PVC,

linoleum.

• Product featuring high elasticity and excellent water resistance.

• Suitable for simultaneous waterproofing and laying ceramic tiles

or mosaics in shower stalls or wet interior environments.

• Product with very low emission of volatile organic compounds.

Compliant with class A+ according to French Regulations.

EN 12004 CLASSIFICATION

Litoelastic is a class R2T reactive, improved adhesive with no

vertical slip for indoor and outdoor ceramic tiling on flooring and

walls. Conformity of the product with the EN 12004 harmonised

standard is reported in the Declaration of Performance CPR-IT203

according to the European Regulation for construction products

(CPR - Construction Products Regulation No.: 305/2011/EU) and

tested by a notified European body according to system 3

certification.

PACKAGING

5 kg buckets (A + B) Pallet Eur 500 kg

10 kg buckets (A + B) Pallet Eur 400 kg

INTENDED USE

Suitable for fixing all types of ceramic tiles, thin porcelain slabs with

and without reinforcement, glass and ceramic mosaics, all kinds of

natural stones even unstable ones such as green marble, slate

and Serena sandstone, resin agglomerates, thin and flexible stone

plates with polyester backing and fibreglass backing, indoors and

outdoors on flooring and walls on traditional supports or elastic and

vibrating ones such as wood panels, metal surfaces, lightened

panels. Suitable for applications subject to severe operating

conditions such as swimming pools, floors subject to heavy traffic,

tiling exposed to high temperature fluctuation. Typical examples of

application involve:

• The bonding of ceramic tiles and mosaics on wood kitchen tops;

• The bonding of mosaics and ceramic tiles on metallic surfaces for

the production of prefabricated bathrooms;

• The bonding of natural stone even unstable due to to moisture or

subject to staining;

• The bonding of ceramic tiles, mosaics, reinforced slabs, natural

stone or resin agglomerates on top of old ceramic tiles or marble

chip tiles;

• The bonding of ceramic tiles, thin reinforced slabs, mosaics,

natural stone or resin agglomerates on heated flooring;

• The bonding of mosaics and fillets consisting of extruded

polystyrene panels used in saunas, hammam and wellness

centres;

• The bonding of ceramic tiles and mosaics at floor-level ducts and

shower drains;

• The bonding of ceramic tiles and mosaics in swimming

pools;

• The bonding of ceramic tiles and mosaics in swimming pools

even on waterproofed surfaces with Elastocem,Coverflex or

Aquamaster;

• The bonding of ceramic tiles and mosaics in fibreglass

baths;

• The bonding of ceramic tiles and thin slabs, including large format

ones, on outdoor façades;

• The bonding of slabs consisting in resin agglomerates;

TILING DESIGN

The durability of ceramic tiling can only be guaranteed by means of

a good manufacturing. We therefore recommend referring to the

national legislation in your country such as for example standard

UNI 11493:2013 for Italy which provides the necessary guidelines

for choosing materials, correct design, use and installation, in order

to ensure the achievement of the required levels of quality,

performance and durability.

By way of example we show some requirements to adopt as a

general rule.

Substrates

Before laying, check that the substrates are clean, free of loose

particles, thoroughly dry and cured, flat and levelled, with sufficient

mechanical strength in accordance with the intended use of the

tiling.
