Conventional untreated screeds are governed by DIN 18560/BS 8204*. Retanol® screeds are considered special constructions and can therefore perform much better than the minimum requirements of DIN 18560/BS 8204*.

In principle, the following applies: The higher the flexural tensile strength, the thinner the screed thickness may be. Retanols fundamentally improve the strength of a screed. While untreated screeds stop at F5, bending tensile strengths of F6 to F8 are easily realised with a Retanol® Xtreme screed.

All layer thicknesses have been tested and confirmed by TÜV Rheinland.

With our product Retanol® Indestra 100 / Pro Concentrate, bending tensile strengths of up to F9 are even possible.

Retanol® Xtreme reaches 80-90 % of its final strength after 72 hours and thus guarantees a construction-free building process.

By reducing the nominal thickness, up to 69 % of the resources required for screed production can be saved.
