Ferro-121 is special polymer modified waterproofing membrane product. It is a special type of polymer which gives more flexibility, highly water proofing and highly bond strength.
Applications:
Interior, Exterior, Swimming pools, Fountains and Water features, Spas and Hot tubs, Kitchens and Food processing areas, Terraces and Balconies over unoccupied spaces.
 In construction, a building or structure is waterproofed with the use of waterproofing membrane and coatings to protect contents as well as protecting structural integrity. Ferro-121 provides full waterproofing for swimming pools to avoid leakage .
It is not unusual for fats and oils to leak or be spilt within kitchen areas. If these land on the tile grout joints or cracks on the floor, the screed beneath will act like a sponge. Ferro-121 waterproofing Membranes are not only used on flat roofs but can also act as a barrier to these chemicals. It is a great solution for waterproofing terraces.

SARA Wall Putty For Repairing Cracks in Walls And Ceilings

wall putty

Normally Plaster walls in home have to repair a crack or Hole at some stage. Small cracks can form in the plaster, while larger holes might occur if you have doors or furniture touching against the wall. Older buildings in particular will naturally start to show cracks over the period of time. It’s suggested that the repair of damaged plaster should be done sooner rather than later, as not only does it make your walls look grungy, but large cracks can become more difficult to fix in later stage. The best way to repair a plaster wall will depend on the size of the crack or hole. Ferrous has the perfect product for this kind of scenario.

Ferrous Crete (Sara) Wall Putty is a polymer based water resistant fine wall putty for concrete/mortar walls and ceilings. It can seal an area where a wall meets a window or door to help keep out drafts and create an energy efficient home. It does not require water curing. Sara wall putty renders a smooth and durable surface suitable for all kinds of paint. It serves as filler/leveler in the paint system and enhances durability.
