The owners had a new pool with top quality porcelain tiles selected for the paved terrace surround and wanted to be sure that the pointing they used was going to be durable in this environment, in that it would not discolour or stain the tiles.
Plus the architect was concerned that it was suitable for the narrow joints between these larger format pavers. They had seen other quality porcelain installations ruined by poor quality pointing with cement mortars and even tile grouts that are best kept indoors.
After researching the subject with their paving suppliers they found GftK’s vdw 815+ Paving Joint Mortar from NCC Streetscape, which is undoubtedly the best pointing to use on such porcelain projects.
GftK’s vdw 815+ is quick and easy to install by wet-slurry application, which also means no waiting for dry weather to prepare, grout, cure and go into service.
It is a unique, ‘state of the art’ material based on epoxy-bound, graded sands, purpose designed for narrow (3-5mm x 20mm deep) joints in quality porcelain and prestige natural stone paving.
GftK's vdw 815+ is none staining (unlike cement based or gun-applied materials), and well-proven to be very durable in this type of environment.
