GYPSOL XS

Gypsol XS was modelled as a high strength screeding solution, for use in projects that experience superior strengths and higher loadings. Gypsol XS screed is formulated especially for projects where higher loadings and wear and tear are more likely. You should think of commercial projects such as, theatres, data storage facilities and hospital operating facilities.

GYPSOL XS

FORMULATED FOR HIGH LOAD AREAS

Our Gypsol XS screed is formulated especially for projects where higher loadings and wear and tear are more likely. You should think of commercial projects such as:

  • theatres
  • data storage facilities
  • hospital operating facilities

The screed is suitable for the encapsulation of an underfloor heating system, either electric or warm water. You can use it to produce a smooth, flat and level floor to form the sub-base for subsequent floor coverings for internal floors.  Our customers are specially trained Screeders who pump your floor into place by using specialised equipment. Gypsol XS provides a high strength cost-effective and environmentally friendly alternative to cement-based screeds.

You can also combine this screed with the unique Gypsol Rapide fast-drying additive to produce drying times of just 14 days at 50mm deep in the correct drying conditions.

PRODUCT DETAILS

LKAB Minerals manufactures Gypsol XS to exacting standards in quality-assured ready-mix facilities throughout the UK. We also have this product available in specific locations from volumetric on-site mixing systems. We make our screed from high-quality Gypsol anhydrite binder, specially selected sands and clean water. Therefore this offers our users a simple and effective floor screeding solution for all building types where they use a subsequent floor covering. Finally, you can use the material with or without underfloor heating, and it is suitable for use in acoustic designs.
