I’m Andy Parkin, Managing Director of the Multi Award Winning Speed Screed, and I’m here today to talk about Gypsol HTC

Gypsol HTC – General Overview

Gypsol HTC is a High Thermal Conductivity calcium sulphate based flowing screed, specifically designed for use with underfloor heating and cooling systems.

Applications

Perfect for:

• Residential/Commercial/Retail/Healthcare buildings
• Schools
• Floating, bonded and un-bonded construction
• Incorporation of electric or wet underfloor heating systems
• Timber, concrete and steel frame

Gypsol HTC is not suitable for:

Mixing/Supply

Gypsol HTC is supplied directly from the screed manufacturer.  Supplied in ready-mixed truck mixers.  4/6/8/10 wheelers.

The screed is then discharged into a specialist screed pump, and then pumped into place.

Drying Times

Approximately 1mm per day, up to 40mm. Beyond 40mm, 0.5mm per day. This is based on 20 degrees and 60 relative humidity

After 7 days the screed can be forced dried to speed up the process.
