ARIETE 250 F®

PRE-MIXED, LIGHTWEIGHT AND THERMALLY INSULATING SUBFLOOR. 15.6 lb/ft³ (250 kg/m3)

ARIETE 250 F® is a pre-mixed, lightweight thermally insulating subfloor made of selected binders and virgin EPS beads (Ø 0.079 in (2 mm)) coated with the E.I.A. additive. It fills and levels the floor build-up over pipes and services, insulating the slab while keeping the load on the structure low.

Only water is added on site: the beads mix and pump evenly, the subfloor does not shrink over time and it reaches a residual moisture below 2% – an ideal base for radiant floor heating and for timber structures, where excess water must be avoided.

It is also used to insulate pitched and flat roofs, with or without slopes, and takes prefabricated waterproofing membranes or solvent-free liquid-applied membranes directly.
