Advanced additive technologies for EN 12004-compliant tile adhesive systems across interior and exterior applications
Modern tile adhesives must meet increasingly complex demands — from bonding large-format tiles to coping with thermal movement and moisture exposure. Whether used in residential bathrooms, commercial kitchens, or external cladding systems, tile adhesives require high adhesion, flexibility, and workability to perform reliably over time.
Oscrete’s additive technologies are designed to meet the challenging requirements of EN 12004, supporting both interior and exterior applications with precision products that enhance performance, consistency, and ease of use
Tile adhesives must balance rapid installation with long-term durability. Oscrete’s additives are formulated to deliver:
These benefits are essential for achieving high-performance adhesive systems that meet both technical and application requirements.
Our tile adhesive additive portfolio combines advanced materials to support consistency, durability, and ease of use across a wide range of applications.
Elotex Redispersible Powder Polymers
Elotex polymers improve adhesion, flexibility, and water resistance in cementitious tile adhesives. They support strong bonding to substrates and tiles, while enhancing durability in wet or exterior environments.
Osperse RT01 & RT02 – Retarders
These set-time modifiers extend open time and improve workability, allowing installers more flexibility during placement — especially useful in warm conditions or large-format tile installations
Calcium Formate – Controlled Acceleration
Used to accelerate setting and early strength development, calcium formate supports rapid installation and early trafficking — ideal for time-sensitive projects.
Stikloporas – Lightweight Aggregate
Stikloporas increases yield and improves thermal insulation properties, helping reduce material weight and support energy-efficient construction.
SidleyCel Cellulose Ethers
These additives enhance water retention, improve rheology, and support smooth, sag-resistant application — especially important for vertical surfaces and large tiles.
Oscrete’s fully equipped lab is dedicated to testing and developing innovative products for the tile adhesive sector. We also collaborate with supply partners’ labs and technical teams, giving customers access to a broad network of expertise and formulation support.
Oscrete’s additives help ensure smoother application, faster turnaround, and longer-lasting results.
