Benefits

Why use Durox Thin Joint Mortar

Using a thin joint mortar can dramatically improve productivity and reduce build time when building block walls, helping to shorten programme times.
Walls built with thinner mortar joints using Durox Thin Joint Mortar and aircrete blocks have less cold bridging and improved thermal efficiency than conventional thicker mortar joints.
The polymer modified formula of Durox Thin Joint Mortar improves waterproofing and weather resistance on block walls both during construction and in the final building.


Applications
