Fast setting, high strength, cement-based grout for joint widths of 1/8“ to 5/8“(3 to 15mm). SuperTec-technology provides a dense cement matrix with excellent properties against mechanical strength/stress and abrasion resistance. A specially formulated cement mixture provides a dense mortar matrix and high resistance against chemical cleaners compared to traditional cement grouts.

Servofix HBF SuperTec is suitable for coverings like porcelain stoneware, stoneware, clinker and alike or suitable natural stone on form stable substrates in interior and exterior applications.

Servofix HBF SuperTec is specially developed for applications in mechanical high-stress areas like workshops, car wash places, swimming pools and other commercial and industrial areas.
Its excellent processing characteristics and quick and secure hardening process prevent wash-out of joints.

Servofix HBF SuperTec does not cause quick water absorption by absorbent tile material and cures well even in colder temperatures.
Test reports for installation in drinking water environments or contact with food are available.

 

For uniform results use only products with the same batch number. Before grouting the mortar must be almost completely cured and dry, the joints must be clean and equally deep. Mix Servofix HBF SuperTec with clean, cold water to a paste-like grout compound of uniform colour.
For application on walls adjust consistency by reducing the water ratio. Fill joints first crossways and then diagonally. As soon as the grout starts to dry, wipe with a sponge and as little water as possible. The grout has dried sufficiently when it can only be pressed in slightly with the fingertip. Remove excess grout from tile immediately. If necessary, wipe grout remains with sponge within 1 hour. Do not dust uncured joints with grout powder. Do not use dried up grout remains.

Avoid direct sun exposure and draught during the curing and installation process.
It is recommended to cover freshly grouted exterior areas and non-absorbent material with plastic foil to keep the grouted area moist.
To avoid staining: Low temperature delays the hardening process and may cause colour variations. Ground moisture can cause efflorescence and discoloured joints. Scrubbing and cleaning the dried joints with highly diluted, acidic cleansers has proven to be very effective. Wet the joints before applying cleanser. Work from top to bottom on walls and avoid puddles on the bottom. Servofix HBF SuperTec is a cement-based product and therefore not entirely resistant to aggressive cleansers and water with high chloride content.
