Bonding Agents & Adhesives
The adhesive creates contact between the substrate and the material to be laid. The different characteristics of the adhesives and bonding agents we offer you arise from the different needs of the substrate and the material to be laid (ceramic tiles, porcelain stoneware, klinker, terra cotta, natural stone, glassy mosaics), the thickness to be built, the intended use of the premises (non-industrial buildings, industrial floors, raised floors, swimming pools, façades and high traffic areas). All adhesives possess the requirements established by the strictest international quality and safety directives. (Click on product for more details)
Grouting & Sealants
The gaps between tiles are a response to technical and aesthetic requirements. In technical terms, the gap compensates the effects of hydrothermal dilatation, which, with the passage of time, may cause tension between the tile and the substrate on which it is laid. Aesthetically, gaps between tiles serve to make up for differences in calibration or right angles of tiles and, if coloured, contribute to the appearance of the surface as a whole. Technokolla offers a vast range of sealants (cement, epoxy, elastomer, silicone and silver ion) guaranteeing high resistance to scratching, maximum workability and high standards of hygiene.

Substrate Preparation
Correct substrate preparation is the only guarantee of lasting quality results, in both technical and aesthetic terms. To be perfect, a substrate must offer sufficient mechanical resistance and be designed with anti-shrinkage technology to prevent detachment and other imperfections. In response to this requirement Technokolla offers: self-levelling ultrarapid and/or quick-hardening hydraulic binders, mortars and anti-shrinkage cement top coats offering excellent workability, starches and epoxy resins, cleaning products for removing oils, fats, waxes and cement residues, acoustic insulators and anti-freeze mortars containing cement and concrete.

Waterproofing
In order to achieve perfect final results, the substrate must be made impermeable to prevent infiltration with rising of water and chemical agents that could cause damage to the structure. Use of waterproofing products is essential above all when working on cracked, fissured or crumbling substrates. Technokolla offers a vast range of cement products for waterproofing walls and floors of: swimming pools, tubs, baths,
showers and other areas subject to high levels of moisture; new and old terraces and balconies, before laying ceramic tiles; tanks and cisterns. Technokolla also offers pastes and mortars for waterproofing of interior walls and floors made of plaster, plasterboard panels and slabs and for counter-thrust waterproofing of walls, elevator shafts, swimming pools, pedestrian underpasses and water tanks and reservoirs.(Click on product for more details)
