Cement tile adhesive standard

The modern method of laying tiles is the thin bed process, for which the substrate must be flat. The tile adhesive is applied with notched trowels. In many countries tile adhesives have to fulfil ISO 13007 or EN 12004 standards. Standard tile adhesives are the most commonly used worldwide.

Unmodified or low modified Tylose® grades are recommended.

Building materials

Tylose® is an essential component in many building materials. It is mainly responsible for water retention, consistency and adhesion. The homogeneity, stability and workability of mortars are improved by the use of Tylose®. Using Tylose® enables the manufacturing of modern and efficient construction materials, such as machine plasters and thin bed adhesives.
