With Kalekim Ultratech, fast application and ideal use In the ceramic applications product group, Ultratech is a cement-based C2FTE S2 class adhesive mortar that achieves extra-fast set within 3 hours, enabling grout application and addressing an important need in the construction sector. Ultratech; through its high bond strength, extra-fast set, and flexibility (S2 Class) characteristics, is resistant to surface tension caused by sudden temperature changes and all types of climatic conditions. With no slippage in vertical applications and long working time, Ultratech attracts considerable interest from consumers and professionals due to its fundamental properties. Particularly used for bonding large-format ceramic, granite, porcelain ceramic and marble cladding materials in exterior spaces, the product allows grout application after 2-3 hours, offering ideal use for spaces requiring opening to traffic within one day. Due to its S2 class high flexibility, it is increasingly preferred in sudden temperature changes and in high pedestrian and vehicle traffic areas such as shopping centres, hospitals and schools. 1059 Ultratech, safely applied for bonding in floor and wall applications of Kalesinterflex (3-5 mm thickness) products, among the world's thinnest and largest-format ceramics, is also used for bonding ceramic, granite, porcelain ceramic and marble cladding materials to building facades. "2400 Fugaflex Rapid", Kalekim's product that combines superior grout characteristics in one product with fast-set properties and high flexibility, exceeds requirements in the construction sector. Fugaflex Rapid demonstrates superior performance in all relevant criteria of the CG2WA class of TS EN 13888 (Grout for tiles) standard, while with enhanced early strength characteristics in addition to standard criteria, it provides consumers the advantage of quickly opening spaces for use. The innovative grout also offers the opportunity for aesthetically compatible spaces with ceramics through a colour selection consisting of 10 alternatives. Particularly preferred in high pedestrian and vehicle traffic areas (airports, shopping centres, restaurants, hospitals), "Fugaflex Rapid" hardens within as little as 6 hours, allowing spaces to be opened to traffic. Moreover, thanks to its efflorescence-free characteristic, it maintains its aesthetic appearance even over extended periods in interior and exterior spaces.
