What is self-leveling compound? Why do we need self-leveling?

Self-leveling mortar is a dry-mixed powder material composed of a variety of active ingredients. The base can be ordinary silica cement, high-aluminum cement, silicate cement, gypsum, etc. At the construction site, workers add water into the self-leveling mortar, stir it into a liquid, and then spread it through the mortar to fill the low places by self-flowing.

Self-leveling mortar is widely used in various places due to its environmental protection, easy operation, fast construction, high efficiency, beautiful appearance, wear resistance, and easy to clean.

Why do we need to do self-leveling?

1. Because most of the concrete floors in home construction have height differences, they need to be leveled and then tiled.

2. To supplement the ground height, for example, the height of the wooden floor and the tile are inconsistent, and the height needs to be consistent, and the shorter one needs to be supplemented.

3. If the floor you choose needs to be fully glued (LVT floor, SPC floor), on the one hand, you can level the ground to meet the floor installation requirements, and on the other hand, you can prevent the cement floor from counter-sanding and increase the moisture-proof effect.
