Mapei has launched two new matt-finish neutral silicone sealants – Mapesil Tile Matt and Mapesil Stone Matt. Suitable for all types of tile and stone respectively, the new duo combines the technical and performance benefits of a traditional silicone product with a more natural, non-glossy/synthetic finish. Resistance to surface mould and algae makes the sealants ideal for application in bathrooms, leisure settings and damp environments. A solvent-free formulation – certified EC1 Plus (very low VOC) according to GEV EMICODE – also promotes a safe, eco-friendly application.
Offered in a range of colours, the new Mapesil sealants have an oxime-curing, neutral silicone formulation with a matt finish. Mapesil Tile Matt is specifically formulated for joints in ceramic and porcelain installations and Mapesil Stone Matt is formulated for natural stone and marble. The sealants can be used alongside all absorbent and non-absorbent building materials in internal and external settings, including tiles, sanitaryware, rainscreens, prefabricated panels, doors and window fittings. Each benefits from a highly viscous paste-like consistency which is easy to extrude, apply and smooth for a clean finish on horizontal and vertical surfaces.
Each sealant is offered in a range of shades to co-ordinate with Mapei coloured grouts. In addition, the Mapesil Stone Matt palette also includes colours with a speckled ‘textured’ effect and coarse finish to complement tactile stones, like granite and travertine.
