TWEHA PreFix X-tra

TWEHA PreFix X-tra is a high-performance, two-component epoxy surface improver, specially developed for the pre-treatment of porous façade and cladding materials such as fiber cement, natural stone and other mineral-based substrates.

Porous materials can absorb and transport moisture through their internal pore structure. Under long-term exposure, moisture at or close to the adhesive interface may adversely affect the durability of the bonded connection. TWEHA PreFix X-tra penetrates and closes the pores at the bonding surface, creating a more stable and controlled interface for the TWEHA adhesive system.

Unlike a conventional adhesion primer, TWEHA PreFix X-tra is primarily a surface improver. Its function is to modify and stabilize the porous substrate and reduce the influence of moisture at the bonding interface rather than compensate for insufficient adhesive performance.

TWEHA StoneMate

TWEHA StoneMate is a homogeneous, highly elastic, one-component high-end hybrid-polymer adhesive, specially developed for the durable bonding of natural stone, ceramic, porcelain and other mineral-based façade materials.

It is particularly suitable for gauged porcelain tile panels, ceramics, concrete and natural materials. By replacing traditional point fixings with an elastic bonded connection, loads can be distributed across the supporting structure while allowing greater design freedom and cleaner façade detailing.

Because natural stone, ceramics and their surface treatments can vary considerably, the compatibility of the complete bonding system with the specific façade material must always be verified against TWEHA’s tested and approved substrates.
