GROUTFLO ADDITIVE

Liquid Additive for Plasticizing Sand/Cement Grout


GROUTFLO ADDITIVE is a high range plasticizer which increases the flow ability and placement of sand/cement grouts. When added to sand/cement mixes GROUTFLO ADDITIVE converts difficult to place grouts into pourable mixture without lowering the strength or increasing the shrinkage. GROUTFLO ADDITIVE is ideal for use in grouts used to fill the keys between autoclaved aerated concrete floor panels and for U-block grouting.

    Specify for grouting autoclaved aerated concrete floor panels for exterior or interior surfaces.

    Specify for grouting masonry or AAC U-Block for exterior and interior applications.

    Specify for above or below grade application.
