Ardex Self-Leveling Technology: Flatly Superior
Ardex invented Self-Leveling technology that is the cornerstone of Ardex Topping and Underlayment products. This means that finished floors will be flat and smooth job after job.
Mixed with water, Ardex Toppings and Underlayments can be poured or pumped, and seek their own level with no troweling required just mix, pour, and spread.
Ardex Self-Drying Technology: The Future of Flooring
Ardex products incorporating Self-Drying Technology are engineered around a Portland cement-based matrix whereby all of the mix water cures chemically within the product allowing the product to literally dry within itself. Since no evaporation is required, flooring or sealers can be installed as soon as the surface is hard.
