Knopp brand their screeding additives under the Contopp banner – an extensive range that includes Accelerator Systems and Hardening Agents.
Contopp Accelerator Systems can achieve drying times of between 2 and 16 days, depending on your requirement. The same drying periods apply to the Contopp Accelerator Compound range, but Accelerator Compounds also offer hydrophobic action and fibre re-enforcement. Contopp Accelerator Compound remains the most effective high-quality screed accelerator on the market.
All Knopp products have easy dose instructions, and special plasticisers give the compound its enhanced workability. Knopp also supply Contopp Hardening Agents, which combine the benefits of fibre re-enforcement and hydrophobic action.
Contopp Hardening Agents are liquid additives that can achieve compressive strengths of up to 60N, making them highly effective in the industrial and commercial sectors as well as in high-traffic areas such as airports and hospitals.
Some Contopp Hardening Agents can be mixed with accelerator products for enhanced performance, such as drying times of 2 days and a compressive strength of up to 40N.
Knopp’s full product range also includes bonding agents and aftercare treatments. All these products are now available within the UK exclusively through CCF.
