GYPSOL RAPIDE
Gypsol Rapide is a high strength high-performance screed designed particularly for quick drying. Besides its main feature, quick drying time, it also offers all of the advantages of other Gypsol screeds including: fast installation, very thin section, high thermal conductivity, very large bays. This screed is free-flowing and self-compacting. On top of that, it has a third-party independently verified drying time.

Besides its main feature, quick drying time, it also offers all of the advantages of other Gypsol screeds including fast installation, very thin section, high thermal conductivity and very large bays. This screed is free-flowing and self-compacting. On top of that, it has a third-party independently verified drying time.
You can use Gypsol Rapide from a minimum depth of just 15mm unbonded and 35mm floating with or without underfloor heating. Therefore, our customers use the product in all construction types for internal floors, to receive subsequent floor treatment. Foremost, our product offers you a surface finish which is smooth, flat and level. As a result, this forms the perfect subfloor for tiles, vinyl, resin, or any other floor covering.
Gypsol Rapide is pumped into place by specially trained screeders who use specialised equipment. Because this screed dries quickly, it is ready to accept floor coverings in as little as 14 days based on 50mm depth. As a result, this product offers unrivalled performance.

PRODUCT DETAILS
Throughout the UK we manufacture Gypsol Rapide to exacting standards in quality-assured Readymix facilities. LKAB Minerals makes this product from high-quality Gypsol anhydrite binder and enhance this with a specially developed fast-drying additive, specially selected sands and clean water. Therefore it offers the user a simple and effective floor screeding solution for applications which contain underfloor heating and are floating, un-bonded or fully bonded and also where you must use a subsequent floor covering and require rapid drying time.
THE BENEFITS
Using Gypsol Rapide will benefit your screed floor because of:
