About this product
mach 1 is a high-performance liquid additive engineered for the production of semi-dry cementitious screeds. Its effect reduces drying time while simultaneously enhancing the compressive and flexural strength of the screed. Thanks to its integrated processing aid, mach 1 ensures excellent workability, making mixing, pumping, spreading, levelling and smoothing noticeably easier and more efficient.
The result: faster construction progress, superior quality, and maximum reliability on site.
