PRODUCT INTRODUCTION
Ascolite Tile Adhesive is a multi-utility premix thin-bed self-curing solution that can be used for fixing and jointing tiles, marbles, stones
and other materials. The material composition results in high strength and durability, giving desired adhesive which also prevents
shrinkage cracks and slippage of material.
We work in accordance to the Indian Standard 15477 and have therefore established and maintained a state-of-the-art
in- house testing and R&D facility which is based at Surat, Gujarat.
Quality Standard Conforms to Indian Standard IS-15477 Does not conforms to any specified Indian
standard
Testing Well tested product with defined parameters No such testing done
Shrinkage No shrinkage observed May shrink when used
Packaging Ready to use / Premix bag Need to mix materials at site
for preparation
Consistency Consistent quality as gradation and Quality not as consistent as mix is done
machined proportions are mixed and packed at site through labour and gradation of
material is not optimised

TILE & STONE ADHESIVE
Ascolite FixoBond
A grey cement-based tile and stone adhesive suitable for application on concrete/cement-plastered substrates on interior and
exterior wall and floor surfaces for fixing ceramic tiles (non-vitrified), marble and granite of small to medium profile.
Ascolite FixoBond +
A grey cement-based tile adhesive suitable for application on concrete/cement-plastered or tile (for tile-on-tile) substrates on
interior and exterior wall and floor surfaces for fixing vitrified tiles, marble, granite and mosaic of small to medium profile.
Ascolite FixoBond Prime
A white cement-based tile adhesive suitable for application on concrete/cement-plastered or tile (for tile-on-tile) substrates on
interior and exterior wall and floor surfaces for fixing vitrified tiles, marble, granite and mosaic of up to large profile.

Availability
Ascolite premixed Tile Adhesive is available round the year, making it easier for the material planning team and facilitating on time completion of work at site.
Easy Application
The product is a premix packed solution containing cement, sand and special additives which only require the addition of water before use, making the application process simpler and easier.
Excellent Adhesion
Due to the special additives and sand gradation, the product texture and quality ensures excellent adhesion and makes it slip resistant, giving it an upper edge.
Longer pot life
Since the premix contains special additives which also contain water retention properties, the pot life of the mix is longer.
FEATURES & BENEFITS
Time Saving
The concept of premix cuts out the tedious
and inaccurate process of material mixing
and preparation, which only leaves water
mixing and application as a process to be
done at site. This reduces the time required
to perform at site and also the labor
requirement.
Minimum Shrinkage Cracks
Technical properties and the design mix
enhance the product performance leading
to minimum shrinkage cracks solving a
major problem in comparison to the
conventional method.

Water
Mixing Tile Adhesive
Rest for 5-10 min and remix again for 2-3 min.
Rest
5Min.
Mix the paste using hand mixer for 5 minutes.
Mixing
Clean off excessive adhesive between the joints and on tiles
with a damp cloth.
Cleaning Adhesive
Do not disturb the tiling for minimum 24 hours.
Fix tiles firmly into position with a sliding motion and hammer with soft mallet to ensure a better bond.
Fix Tiles Leave to Dry
Surface where tile has to be fixed should be of concrete
base, properly cured, levelled and free of cracks.
Floor Wall
Clean surface by wire brush and ensure
contamination-free area.
