Wondering which grout to choose? We are not surprised! This is a common question we receive from our clients. In the list below, we present grouts with a wide range of applications and we present those that, according to our experts, will be best suited to various surfaces.

Is a universal grout a good solution?

Universal elastic grout is a material used to fill gaps or joints between ceramic tiles, stone or other building materials. There are several reasons why it is worth using a universal flexible joint:

• Flexibility : Universal flex grout is flexible, meaning it can expand and contract in response to temperature changes, structural movements or stresses. Thanks to this, it prevents cracking of the joint and minimizes the risk of damage during the use of the building.
• Water and Moisture Resistant : The universal flex grout is watertight and moisture resistant. Thanks to this, it prevents water from entering cracks and joints, which protects the substrate against moisture, deformation and the appearance of fungi or mold.
• Easy application : Universal flexible grouts are relatively easy to apply.

• Weather resistance : Paving stones and natural stone are also exposed to various weather conditions such as frost, rain, UV radiation, etc.
