Sika sets standards

Sika’s technical know-how is behind its new release, Sika Setting Sand a ready to use moisture-curing jointing compound that gives perfect pointing for all types of paving.

Available in a new 20kg paper sack, Sika Setting Sand is a quick and easy alternative to traditional pointing. Much stronger than traditional methods, Sika Setting Sand can be simply poured or swept into joints between 2-5mm wide before being saturated with water. Once cured it will not wash out, providing a long lasting finish that will not shrink or crack over time.

Available in buff, the compound is suitable for use with driveways, patios and a variety of paving products and can be used for gaps down to 3mm deep curing joints to a hard finish for long-lasting durability.

Jayne Hasoon, Product Manager said: “Sika Setting Sand has been designed to make builders’ lives easier – available in a handy 20kg bag, the same as ordinary silver sand, the compound can be simply poured out where it is required, providing a strong and stable result every time which ultimately means longer life grouting, something that all builders will want to achieve!”
