Tiling system
Tiling must take place according to the instructions and under the
guarantee conditions of the adhesive supplier.
Marley Eternit recommends using the following general principles.
apply adhesion primer (alkali-resistant resin dispersion) on
the whole board surface using a roller (dust binding and
absorption regulating)
in wet spaces the corners of the tiled wall must be finished with
a membrane paste (latex emulsion) and an alkali resistant joint
strip (alkali resistant synthetic fibres with mechanical bonding)
the joints between the supporting sheets are finished with a
waterproof membrane paste and an alkali resistant joint
sealing strip. Also coat the whole surface with the waterproof
membrane paste
tile with high quality tile adhesive (minimum C2T with flexibility
classification S1 according to EN 12004) using the specified
glue spreader
tiles are finished with a high quality water resistant grout with
extra flexibility to prevent cracking under the influence
of vibration
seal the construction edges and expansion joints with anti-fungal
flexible permanent sealant
The drying times must be respected each time wet products are
applied.
The sizes of the floor tiles are at least 200 mm and at most 400mm.
For extra heavy or large tiles the specific instructions of the tile
manufacturer and glue supplier must be followed. It is advisable
to use high quality tiles that meet the prevailing standards as
regards moisture absorption, strength, etc.
