Product Description
FLEXDER+ is a high-performance adhesive mortar specially developed for the installation of porcelain tiles, ceramic tiles, granite ceramic tiles, marble, concrete blocks, and similar building materials. It complies with the requirements of the C2TE classification and offers high adhesion strength.
Application Areas
Suitable for indoor and outdoor floor and wall applications, including terraces and balconies. It is suitable for use in bathrooms, Turkish baths, water tanks, standard and thermal swimming pools, and pools kept filled during winter, as well as in areas exposed to continuous moisture, environments with high temperature fluctuations, and cold storage facilities. It is designed for the installation of marble, natural stone, granite, granite ceramic tiles, glass mosaics, BTB and similar covering materials, exterior ceramic and granite applications, and ceramic tiles up to 60 × 60 cm with water absorption below 3%. It can also be applied on substrates such as concrete, aerated concrete, gypsum plaster, and gypsum boards, and is suitable for bonding pumice and aerated concrete blocks, as well as insulation boards, to concrete substrates and for masonry applications using these blocks.
Features and Advantages
- Easy to prepare and apply using standard application methods.
- Offers high adhesion strength and prevents tile slippage on vertical surfaces.
- This product is resistant to water and moisture and provides flexibility during application thanks to its extended working time.

Application Instructions
- 1
Surface Preparation
The substrate must be sound, clean, dry, smooth, and level. Oil, grease, rust, dust, dirt, and loose particles must be removed. Damaged or defective areas should be repaired before application. Smooth surfaces such as ceramic, marble, and similar materials should be roughened to improve adhesion. Concrete substrates should be lightly pre-dampened; however, standing water must not be allowed on the surface.

Mixing
Gradually add 25 kg of FLEXDER+ to 7.0–7.5 L of clean water in a clean mixing container. Mix using a low-speed mixer until a homogeneous, lump-free consistency is obtained. Allow the mortar to rest for 5–10 minutes, then remix for 1–2 minutes before application.

Application
Apply the prepared mortar within its pot life. Place the covering material onto the adhesive within the open time and press firmly to ensure proper adhesion.
Important Notes
- The application and ambient temperature should be between +5 °C and +35 °C.
- Do not add water, cement, or any other additives to the prepared mortar.
- After application, protect the surface from frost, rain, direct sunlight, strong winds, and high temperatures.
- Take appropriate protective measures against frost at low temperatures and rapid moisture loss at high temperatures.
- Wait at least 24 hours before applying the grout.
- Clean the surface with water before the mortar has fully hardened.
- Clean all tools and equipment with water immediately after use, before the mortar hardens.
Storage and Shelf Life
Store in the original, unopened packaging in a cool, dry place, protected from moisture, frost, and direct sunlight. When stored under appropriate conditions, the shelf life is 12 months from the date of manufacture.
Health and Safety
This product is cement-based and may cause irritation to the skin and eyes.
