Ready made screed for slope adjustment
GROVE MASSETTO is a premixed powder that, following addition of exact amounts of water, produces a mix designed to modify slopes on flat roofs, terraces and balconies prior to a liquid sheath waterproofing treatment.
Following addition of GROVE PRIMER, the mix becomes a grout with excellent adhesion properties, allowing application to both traditional substrates (concrete) and smooth tiles.
Range of use
GROVE MASSETTO is used when a treadable waterproof layer must be applied directly to:
- an existing floor, for instance when restructuring flat roofs, terraces and balconies, without having to remove any previous substrate;
- a new surface, for instance on balconies or hallways.
Advantages
GROVE MASSETTO:
- is ready for use;
- can be applied in layers from 1mm to several centimetres thick to all types of substrates;
- offers a low shrink performance.

Self-leveling cement
for substrate smoothing or coloured finishing
NEUTRAL OR COLOURED
LEVEL FINO is a premixed powder providing a very fluid cement mix to apply in self-leveling and highly resistant smoothing layers, setting fast on new or old substrates.
The product offers a remarkable capacity for adhesion to any kind of substrate normally used in the building industry; we recommend, however, preparing the base with specific primers, as indicated below, before laying LEVEL FINO.
Thanks to its special formulation, the product is suitable to be used both indoors and outdoors, with just a few limitations due to substrate conditions.
Range of use
LEVEL FINO NEUTRAL is used as a self-leveling, fast setting smoothing coat prior to further treatments and/or coverings; a thickness of no less than 3 mm is required if high tensile strength materials (parquet, thick resins, etc.) are going to be laid down.
LEVEL FINO COLOURED is used, in layers up to 10 mm thick at a time, as a finishing treatment for:
- Sand and cement screeds, SC 1, SC 1-R or SC 1-BASE and sand screeds, on evenly absorbing surfaces: if necessary, prime with NORPHEN SW SOLID (see below);
- Natural calcium sulphate or synthetic anhydrite screeds, following NORPHEN SW SOLID treatment (see below);
- Existent ceramic, marble, natural stone, wood, clinker, stoneware floors (see below on how to prepare the underlying surface).
Advantages
- Can also be used outdoors thanks to its capacity to withstand a high number of frost-defrost cycles;
- Is fast setting;
- Its special formulation eliminates any shrink tension after application.

PACKAGING

Concrete curing coat
NORDCURE is based on thermoplastic copolymers dissolved in hydrocarbon solvents: following polymerization, they produce a water impermeable film, little permeable to water vapour and offering great resistance to saponification processes. Once applied to concrete, it creates a specific evaporation proof barrier.
Range of use
NORDCURE is used as a setting coat for fresh concrete. Adjusting water evaporation speed can improve concrete mechanical properties and final characteristics, increasing abrasion resistance, reducing surface pulverization and preventing both slab curling and crack formation due to shrinking.
NORDCURE’s major advantage is a fast and easy application, and therefore low cast setting costs, as you can do away with laborious methods involving the use of plastic sheets or wet sand and the inconvenience of having to go back to the yard after work is completed just to remove them.
The product is available in the selfdegradable
NORDCURE B version.

Dustproof, oilproof, consolidating
bicomponent product in aqueous emulsion
NORPHEN SW SOLID is a bicomponent product with considerable penetrating capacity even on wet surfaces; following polymerization, it delivers a dustproof and oilproof film with exceptional consolidating properties.
Range of use
NORPHEN SW SOLID is used to provide:
- dustproof and oilproof glossy finish on quartz hardened concrete floors (with or without iron oxide colouring) after they have been left to set for at least 10 days;
- waterproof protective lining on tanks designed to contain water, even drinkable water, provided a washing cycle is carried out, before use, 7 days after product application (in normal conditions);
- consolidating treatments for non cohesive plasters or mortars.
Advantages
NORPHEN SW SOLID:
- is endowed with high impregnating capacity and good overall chemical resistance;
- does not contain solvents, thus respecting both environment and operators;
- creates a water vapour permeable film;
- does not alter chemical properties/drinkability of the water it comes in contact with (CHELAB test report No. 02/169153).

Chloride-free powder admixture for cement mixes
X-CEM BASE is a special chloride-free powder admixture consisting of inorganic compounds to be added to cement mixes (slurries, grouts and concrete) to increase performance both in the green and the set state.
The action of X-CEM BASE allows superfluid and non-segregating mixes to be obtained as well as a considerable reduction in the mixing water.
The low water/cement ratio of the cement mixes obtained using X-CEM BASE results in high strength after short as well as long curing, very limited or no shrinkage at all and a very low microporosity.
Field of application
X-CEM BASE is used as an additive or admixture in the preparation of:
- cement slurries for injection into masonry needing repair;
- cement slurries injected to anchor steel rods, cables, tie rods, …;
- grouts with little or no shrinkage for the repair of r.c. structures;
- superfluid, non-segregating concrete with low water/cement ratio and little or no shrinkage for structural elements in general;
- concrete for industrial floors without or with a limited number of contraction joints;
- high-strength concrete also with short curing (24-48 hours);
- waterproof concrete.
Performance of the mixes with added X-CEM BASE depends on the design mix (in particular on the type and proportion of cement, the type of aggregate and the grading curve), casting methods and site conditions as well as on correct engineering/design of the type of work to be carried out.
Advantages
Cement mixes with added X-CEM BASE have the following basic features:
- high flowability and maintenance of workability;
- low water/cement ratio;
- very little or no shrinkage;
- high strength at 24-48 hours;
- low microporosity
X-CEM BASE is compatible with all types of cement.
