Durabase CI++ Matting – Advanced Underlayment for Tiling Projects

The Durabase CI++ matting is a premium, multi-functional underlayment system designed to elevate the durability and performance of your floor tiling projects. Engineered with an innovative 3-layer construction, this matting offers superior crack-bridging, decoupling, and optimized shearing force protection, making it a versatile solution for a wide range of substrates.

Why Choose Durabase CI++ Matting?

  1. Versatile Substrate Compatibility
    Durabase CI++ matting is designed for use on a variety of substrates, including:

    • Cracked concrete floors: Bridges cracks to prevent tile damage.
    • Timber floors: Decouples movement to maintain a stable tiled surface.
    • Old or damaged tiled surfaces: Ideal for renovations, provided the subsurface is load-bearing.
      This versatility makes it a go-to choice for both new installations and renovation projects.
  2. Accelerated Renovations
    Save valuable time on projects with Durabase CI++. When used over fresh screed, tiles can be laid as soon as the screed is walkable, reducing waiting times and enabling faster project completion.
  3. Durable 3-Layer Construction
    The matting’s robust 3-layer design provides:

    • Crack-bridging to protect tiles from substrate imperfections.
    • Decoupling to accommodate multi-directional lateral movement.
    • Optimised shearing force protection to withstand movement without transferring stress to the tiled surface.
  4. Eco-Friendly Design
    Manufactured using high-quality materials, Durabase CI++ matting is a sustainable option for professional tiling. Its innovative design minimizes material waste, contributing to more environmentally responsible tiling projects.
  5. Slim Profile for Seamless Integration
    With a thickness of just 3mm, the matting minimizes height build-up, allowing for smooth transitions between tiled surfaces and adjacent flooring materials. This ultra-thin design is perfect for projects where maintaining consistent floor levels is critical.

Easy Installation Process

Durabase CI++ matting is designed with simplicity in mind, making it ideal for professional tilers and DIY enthusiasts alike.

  1. Prepare the Substrate: Ensure the substrate is clean, load-bearing, and level.
  2. Apply Tile Adhesive: Spread a thin layer of flexible tile adhesive over the substrate.
  3. Lay the Matting: Position the matting onto the adhesive and press down firmly to secure. The interwoven polypropylene underlay ensures excellent stability and a strong bond with the subsurface.
  4. Install Tiles: Apply another layer of flexible tile adhesive over the matting and begin laying tiles as usual.

Pro Tip: For areas with underfloor heating, the matting provides an excellent base for even heat distribution and added protection.
