Holcim Multifix

  

Holcim Philippines recently launched their newest product, Holcim Multifix.It is a new, easy to use and multi purpose mortar product that can help contractors and masons improve the quality of walls,floors and tile installation with their building projects. The product is a combination of sand and cement enhanced with polymer for better performance just by adding water.

Holcim Multifix is produced in the company’s drymix plant removing the need for masons to combine the said components on site to ensure uniform quality and right proportions. Being factory produced,it significantly reduces building materials waste such as sand which makes it friendlier to the environment.

Holcim Senior Vice President for Marketing and Innovation Ram Maganti said that Holcim Multifix helps address common challenges of builders in producing mortars such as high-quality raw materials and varying skill levels of workers. Poor quality of mortars is one of the main reasons that impact the quality of walls. Aside from being an excellent wall plaster, Holcim Multifix can also be used for screeding, a finishing layer of concrete slabs for levelling floors. It can also be used for tile laying.

“We developed Holcim Multifix in line with our company’s commitment to continuously produce innovative building solutions that do not just bring value to our customers but are also sustainable for the environment. Holcim Multifix helps make it easier for our partner builders to produce good quality walls. It is factory-mixed using Holcim cement and quality sand for superior performance. It is modified with polymer for outstanding adhesion compared to on- site mixed mortars as well as better crack resistance. Since we are not screening sand, therewill be lesser material wastage. And last but not the least, Holcim Multifix is the only all-in-one drymix product in the Philippines. These are the Five Star Advantage of Holcim Multifix,” he

said.

“Holcim Multifix’s Five-Star Advantage means more business for contractors as it helps improve building quality and lessens reworks that can eat up time for additional projects. The simplicity of Holcim Multifix, meanwhile, provides homeowners convenience and value for money,” Maganti added.

The product will be initially available as 25-kilogram bags in select locations in Luzon by December and introduced in Mindanao in the first quarter of 2021. Holcim Multifix is the latest in the company’s line of drymix products which includes Holcim Skim Coat and Holcim Tile Adhesive.
