Article DetailOnly 5 days drying time.

 

Cemscreed 5 is a quick drying screed that is ready for floor covering in just 5 days. In addition it is strong and abrasion resistant, ideal for all common floor finishes. Cemscreed 5 can also be used in sound and thermal insulation and weight-reduction applications. For particularly well-used floors, Cemscreed 5 is ideal.
