Vandex Uni Mortar 1 Z

High-Performance Waterproofing and Reprofiling Mortar

Vandex Uni Mortar 1 Z is a specialized, surface-applied cementitious mortar engineered for the reprofiling and protection of concrete and masonry. While often used as a preparation layer for Vandex BB75-Z, it serves as a powerful standalone waterproofing solution for challenging environments.

Sulfate-Resisting and Potable Water Safe

Unlike standard crystalline treatments, Uni Mortar 1-Z does not require crystal growth to function, making it highly effective on varied substrates like brick, sandstone, and stone. Formulated with sulphate-resisting cement, it is the industry standard for sewerage treatment plants, processing tanks, and areas exposed to chemical or acid attack.
