I know they are trying to get a stronger foothold in the english market Gary, that should give you some leveredge when negotiating the price mate. I take it you are talking pallets anyway, as above Davy G has a contact in the company.

Been useing larsen rapid set single part flexible just got threw 2 pallets of it. great on the floors goes off very guick open time is the norm but pot life isn't very good, but then you have to work quicker:smilewinkgrin: Its got great sucktion on porcelain tiles. it must have loads of polymers in it as it smells loads. But it dont like going on walls :mad2: Load up your trowel sticks to it great. spread on masonry walls and it just rolls down the wall. dont matter how wet or dry you mix it gravity just takes over:mad2: But then stick your tile on it and try getting it back off again, like i said great suction!
I would use it for floors but not for walls imo !!

I used it and can say it's not so good! contractor was supplying it he bought for 8 pounds per bag he said, used 2 pallets of Larsen flexible standart set so drying time was 2-3 days, I could leave mixed bucket over night and next day could start tiling again was still like fresh in the morning 🙂, also used rapid set and it was drying way to fast 10 min. maximum :mad2:

i used the larsen flexible rapid set s1 grey to stick down 6mm hardibacker its a good adhesive mixes up nice and had enough time without it picking up to quickly or going off in the bucket ,used the white flexible rapid set s1 to stick down white 60cm x 60cm polished porcelain it isnt the whitest adhesive i have ever used but was nice to work with and I had enough time to work with it with out it going off in the bucket, more feed back to follow
