Urban paving repointing without delays

Paving pointing and repointing is often a major headache for local authorities, architects, engineers and their contractors, due to the various and very necessary limitations of jointing materials, especially the countless delays waiting for a suitable weather window.

With GftK Paving Jointing Mortar, you can complete the jointing or repointing, and get the job completed on time - no more wating for dry conditions and a dry forecast.

A huge amount of paving pointing, especially repointing, fails the day it is applied, but the delamination, lack of bond strength, and fine shrinkage cracks, are often not immediately visible, even for up to a year or more.

However, the advanced technology in the state-of-the-art, second generation, two-part, epoxy resin based, GftK vdw 850plus, paving jointing system from NCC Streetscape, means that you can keep working in wet weather conditions, even in the rain.

There is no concern for residual water in the joints, the highly cohesive, self-compacting mortar displaces the water, no tooling or additional finishing required either. You can even keep working in the rain when you need to get the job finished to get the area reopened as soon as possible.

GftK’s vdw 850plus is ideal for jointing many different types of paving, from domestic paving to paving around retail and commercial centres, as well as all types of urban paving, including heavily trafficked small format, natural stone setts on public highways and in historic market squares for example.

The unique products are completely prebatched for ease of use and strict control of mixing and use on site; the material has exceptionally high-flow characteristics and self-compacting into the joints, with no additional tooling and finishing required.

Cleaning the stone surfaces after the application is also easy, just rinse and clean off with more water, plus there is no cement-haze or potentially harmful cement run-off into drainage systems or to ground water.

GftK vdw 850plus hardens quickly to get areas into, or back into service as quickly as possible, hardening to withstand the toughest installation and service demands that public areas are exposed to, including frequent vehicular traffic, with multiple heavy and articulated trucks, and with extensive de-icing salt usage in winter, as well as spillages.

These paved areas then require frequent high-pressure jet-washing, and often the use of mechanical street cleaning machines, all of which is no problem for GftK vdw 850plus, and you can say goodbye to expensive annual repointing costs, as well as repeated costly claims for trips and falls too.

Longer-term durability also increases sustainability and budget cost efficiency, with this durable long-term, cost-effective and sustainable performance now well proven for GftK vdw 850plus, all around the UK on successfully completed projects.
