Express System

Express System

Super-fast and convenient lightweight insulation

An unrivalled solution wherever project completion times are a key consideration, as well as for ETICS renovations (ETICS over ETICS). Particularly recommended for buildings where the ETICS system must be installed within a short timeframe; for buildings where the lowest weight per square metre is essential; and for the thermal refurbishment of old ETICS façades.

System features:

• Super-fast – 5 days shorter installation time compared to a conventional system
• Lightweight – up to 50% lighter per m² compared to a conventional system
• Convenient – less material, fewer application steps
• Highest performance per m²
• Extended application conditions from 0°C to 40°C for fixing EPS boards
• Low water absorption and high water vapour permeability
• Resistance to biological contamination, such as fungi and algae
• High durability and flexibility
• Excellent application
• Colours: NCS, RAL, Natural colour

System components:

1. Fixing: Ceresit CT 84 Express PU adhesive for EPS panels, plastic anchors or steel-core anchors classified in accordance with the requirements of ETAG 014; the number of fixings and their placement should be determined by the architect, based on a substrate analysis and load calculations.

2. Insulation material: EPS boards classified in accordance with the requirements of PN-EN 13163, with a thickness of up to 42 cm.

3. Reinforcement layer*: Ceresit CT 87 White flexible adhesive and reinforcement mortar for EPS and MW, and Ceresit CT 325 fibreglass mesh.

4. Plaster**: Ceresit CT 174, CT 175 Aquastatic silicate-silicone plasters.

* Alternatively, CT 85 and ZU plaster mortars, covered by the Ceresit Ceretherm Classic and Ceresit Ceretherm Popular ETA certificates, may be used; in this case, CT 16/CT 15 primer is required.

** Ceresit alternative plasters and paints: mineral, acrylic, silicone, silicate and elastomeric.
