Cement-Based, Self-Leveling Compounds

Leveling Subfloors and Project Challenges

Armed with five Schönox cement-based self-leveling compounds for varied project needs, flooring professionals have options featuring moisture resistance, water and frost resistance, interior as well as exterior usage, pourable depths from 1/16” to 3”, and compressive strengths from 4250 to 7550 psi.  With no VOCs, qualification for Emicode EC1 Plus (very low emission) status, contributions to LEED credit, and easy clean up with water, Schönox compounds demonstrate speed, performance, and safety characteristics for project, environmental, and installer success.

All Schönox cement-based self-levelers are pumpable, allow subfloors to be renovated rather than demolished, and efficiently address multiple substrates including concrete, cement, gypsum, ceramic tiles, and water-resistant adhesive residue.  Schönox US and ZM add OSB and plywood to the list of coverable substrates with Schönox US going further with its ability to accept constant water loads and pour to a 3” depth.  Projects with the Need for Speed™ accelerate with Schönox ZM Rapid’s readiness for floor covering in just 1.5 to 2 hours at a ½” depth.

Schönox self-leveling technology provides cement-based compounds addressing the widest range of uses and substrate scenarios with the minimum array of products.  Healthy products, overnight project turnarounds, moisture resistance, pump-ready solutions, long term subfloor benefits, outstanding performance characteristics, and industry-leading environmental credentials make Schönox cement-based, self-leveling compounds the first choice among flooring professionals.

Schönox S 1500 self-levels concrete, cement, gypsum, and old substrates in interior and exterior spaces, with depths from 1/8” to 1-1/2” with low shrinkage, ready for covering in 24 hours (1/4” depth), providing moisture, water, and frost resistance, achieving 4900 psi (in 28 days).

Schönox XM self-levels concrete, cement, gypsum, old substrates, and adhesive residues in interior spaces, with depths from 1/16” to 1” with very low shrinkage, ready for covering in 24 hours (1/4” depth), achieving compressive strength of 4300 psi (in 28 days).

Schönox US self-levels concrete, cement, gypsum, wood, old substrates, and adhesive residues in interior and exterior spaces, with depths from 1/8” to 3” with low shrinkage, ready for covering in 24 hours (1/4” depth), providing moisture, water, and frost resistance, achieving compressive strength of 4250 psi (in 28 days).

Schönox ZM self-levels concrete, cement, gypsum, wood, old substrates, and adhesive residues in interior spaces, with depths from 1/16” to 1-1/2” with very low shrinkage and dust-reduced properties, ready for covering in 16 hours (1/4” depth), providing moisture-resistance, achieving compressive strength of 5800 psi (in 28 days).

Schönox ZM Rapid self-levels concrete, cement, gypsum, wood, old substrates, and adhesive residues in interior spaces, with depths from 1/16” to 1-1/2”, ready for covering in 1.5 to 2 hours (1/2” depth), achieving compressive strength of 7550 psi (in 28 days).
