Product Overview

BAL Admix GT1 is a high-performance, water-based polymer admixture designed to enhance the properties of cement-based grouts for both wall and floor tiling projects. When mixed with BAL cementitious grouts, it significantly improves adhesion, flexibility, and water resistance, making it ideal for demanding environments such as bathrooms, kitchens, swimming pools, and external patios. This admixture is perfect for professional tilers and contractors seeking to achieve durable, high-quality grout joints that resist cracking, staining, and moisture ingress. Its low-viscosity formula ensures easy mixing and application, delivering consistent results across residential, commercial, and industrial installations.

Key Benefits:

• Superior Adhesion: Enhances grout bonding to tiles and substrates, reducing the risk of joint failure.
• Waterproofing: Creates a robust barrier against water penetration, perfect for wet rooms and outdoor areas.
• Flexible Joints: Increases grout elasticity to accommodate substrate movement and thermal expansion.
• Long-Lasting Finish: Reduces efflorescence and staining for aesthetically pleasing, durable grout lines.
• Broad Application: Compatible with ceramic, porcelain, mosaics, and natural stone in both interior and exterior settings.
