Thin Bed vs. Thick Bed

Two men with one goal: to lay 90 tiles. Watch our video to see how the thin bed beats the thick-bed technique hands down.

In many countries, tiles are laid by the traditional thick bed process – consuming large quantities of sand and cement. Tile adhesives modified with WACKER binders allow tiles to be laid significantly more easily and faster. As a result, we’re making an important contribution to significantly reducing consumption of resources.

The modern thin-bed method, using VINNAPAS® dispersible polymer powder-modified modern CTA (ceramic tile adhesives) , offers another key advantage: the tiles can be laid much more easily and therefore faster, as our comparative test makes clear:

Binders for Modern Tile Adhesives

WACKER offers a wide range of polymeric binders, which make cementitious tile adhesives more effective and user friendly.
