Deadline pressure, the need for efficient construction processes and the highest quality standards characterize the modern day-to-day construction work of specialist tradesmen, screed layers and architects. Long screed drying times often represent a critical bottleneck that can jeopardize the entire construction progress and lead to considerable additional costs. Screed accelerators are not just an option here, but a strategic necessity for optimizing construction times and ensuring [...]
Retrofitting underfloor heating by milling sounds tempting to many builders: low installation height and quick installation. However, the process of milling underfloor heating has disadvantages and risks that are often overlooked. Before you make a decision, it is important to know the downsides. This article highlights the disadvantages of underfloor heating tilling and helps you to make an informed decision [...].
Fast construction progress is worth its weight in gold - especially when laying screed. Screed accelerators promise significant time savings here by shortening the drying time and enabling earlier readiness for covering. However, as with many quick solutions, potential screed accelerators also have disadvantages that need to be considered. In this article, we shed light on the challenges and show how you can use [...]
Choosing the right industrial floor is a strategically important decision. It must not only meet aesthetic requirements, but above all it must be able to withstand the specific stresses and strains of operation over the long term. Two names dominate the market for high-quality synthetic resin coatings: Epoxy resin (EP) and polyurethane (PU). Both offer excellent properties, but their strengths and weaknesses differ significantly. One [...]
When we think of a new floor, we often focus on the visible surface - the elegant parquet floor, the modern tiles or the robust coating. But the true longevity, functionality and aesthetics of any flooring system start much deeper: with the subfloor. Professional subfloor preparation is literally the alpha and omega, the crucial first step that unfortunately [...]
Screed plays a central role when building or renovating a house. It forms the load-bearing and even basis for the subsequent floor covering such as parquet, tiles or carpet. But there is one question that concerns many builders: How thick should the screed be? The answer is not a general one, as the optimum screed thickness depends on various factors. A correct [...]
Modern heating systems are increasingly relying on underfloor heating, and the heating screed plays a central role in this. It is far more than just a substrate for your floor covering - it is the heart of your underfloor heating system, responsible for heat storage and distribution. In this guide, you will learn everything you need to know about the structure, properties, thickness, drying time and [...]
Underfloor heating stands for modern living comfort: pleasant radiant heat, no annoying radiators and energy-efficient temperature distribution. However, the screed that surrounds the heating pipes plays a crucial role in ensuring that the heat reaches the room efficiently and evenly. It is much more than just a filling layer - it is the heat distributor and the basis for your floor covering. This [...]
Underfloor heating stands for comfort and efficiency. But how is it actually constructed and how does it work? Anyone interested in underfloor heating or planning an installation will quickly come up against questions about the exact structure and installation. In this article, we shed light on the underfloor heating details and explain the typical underfloor heating scheme so that you can [...]
