Gypsum Based Tile Adhesives

[Ajax123]

I don't expect this to be a usy thread but does anyone know of any Gypsum Based tile adhesives.

There are quite a few in France Germany and Holland but not for some reason in the UK.

I know of GBTA01 from creative impressions and Benfergyps available through Benfer stockists.

Not interested in prices at this stage justv suppliers, manufacturers or stockists

Thanks for any help and info

Cheers Dave. Is that the tubbed one or do they have a powdered one do you know?

It's powdered especially for gypsum substrates.

They are. They also have a small range of flooring ancilliaries - levelling compound, primer and tile addy.

No doug - didn't see that one. It's all about my obsession with anhydrite floor screeds cos I keep getting called out to delaminated tile complaints where tilers have used cement addy and inadequate primer.
My advice is get rid of cement on anhydrite and use gypsum cos its the same stuff. My company in Germany have recomended it for about 5 years now and result is almost zero delamination problems. Same in France and Holland where there is lots more anhydrite and even more tiling than in the UK. Problem is there aren't many addys in the UK based on Gypsum so thought would ask the forum for help finding them. Helping tilers and clients to help themselves sort of thing.

Mind you alabaster is gypsum based as well so maybe would be ok there as well.

there's a thread been posted recently about tiling onto alabaster

Found another one today - Alphycol 725 from Forbo Flooring. Very big in Holland.
Am assured it is easily available in the UK direct from Forbo - just awaiting confirmation

That's 4 on the list - it's getting bigger

Any more to add to this list Alan..?

I have a very large tiling project next month( around 7 weeks work) onto Gyvlon screeds..

and i am thinking of using GBTA and Ditra.. so some more suppliers would be very useful..

I have to spec around 100sqm porcelain onto a Gyvlon screed, so any advise is appreciated. Suppliers of primer and addy as well as techniques / processes etc.?

Yes.. but i'm afraid the price of kerakoll is too high compared to other brands..
