What is Gypsol Diamond?
Gypsol diamond in Wiltshire is a modern self-smoothing anhydrite flowing screed that offers superior performance compared to traditional sand: cement screeds. The key benefits of Gypsol diamond include:
- High strength – With compressive strength, it can be stronger than concrete.
- Ultra smooth finish – The liquid form allows a smooth, level surface to be achieved.
- Faster drying and installation – Can be walked on after 24 hours.
- Excellent Thermal Conductivity – Ideal for underfloor heating systems.
- Low Shrinkage – Unlike other screeds, there is negligible shrinkage.
Gypsol diamond contains a special aggregate that improves flow and gives it a robust, durable nature while still drying quickly. This makes it the ideal modern floor screed.
