As well as ultra-fast drying times, SikaScreed P-24 has an impressive 30N/mm2 compressive strength and a 5N/mm2 flexural strength. It can be installed in a range of thickness from 25-90mm and ideal for virtually any application including commercial, residential, shop-fitting and refurbishment projects.

The latest, dynamic addition to Sika’s renowned Cementitious Range, SikaScreed P-24 features include a ternary cement binder which gains high early strength while maintaining low shrinkage for rapid trafficking and covering.

An expansion to the UK Cementitious product range already offered by Sika, SikaScreed P-24, utilises proven Sika technology to offer value, performance and consistency whilst adding to its total screed package. SikaScreed P-24 also compliments Sika’s extensive range of floor finishes, enabling the company to become one of the select few manufacturers to offer a total floor specification solution backed-up with a single guarantee for total build up.

Mark Bushell, Sika Flooring Business Unit Manager, commented: “With SikaScreed P-24, Sika has created a fast-drying, easy to apply screed which is strong, durable and suitable for a range of flooring. Used in conjunction with other products within Sika’s Flooring Range, it further enables Sika to provide an even more versatile total floor solution to meet client’s requirements.”

In providing a one-stop-shop, total flooring solution, Sika has not only ensured the efficient on site installation and creation of a quality floor finish, it has enabled easier specification, project management and works scheduling.
