Ultralite Flex: the new range of lightweight adhesives

The innovative technology that enables larger areas of tiling to be installed with the same weight of adhesive

Back

September 27, 2021

At Cersaie Mapei is presenting their new range of ULTRALITE FLEX lightweight adhesives which will be replacing the current ULTRALITE family, offering even better characteristics while maintaining the uniqueness of lightweight technology.

Using the same trowel, installation technique and substrate, with a 15 kg bag of one of these new adhesives you can install almost the same area in square metres of tiling as with a 25 kg bag of traditional adhesive of the same class. The application characteristics of the products have also been improved, such as their excellent workability, higher yield and high back-buttering capacity.

ULTRALITE FLEX adhesives are ideal for installing any type of ceramic tile, mosaics and most types of natural stone. Thanks to their application characteristics and performance properties, they are also excellent for installing large format tiles, including thin tiles.

There are five types of adhesive available, with each one having its own different classification according to Euronorm EN 12004.
