EASY DESIGN
Two-component, versatile, decorative, acid-resistant
epoxy grout, with a bacteriostatic agent and
BioBlock® technology, easy to apply and clean, ideal
for grouting ceramic tiles, glass mosaics and stone
materials, to be used also in combination with
MapeGlitter and Mapecolor Metallic. For grouting
joints from 1 to 15 mm wide. Can also be used as an
adhesive
Design has a bacteriostatic agent, preventing from the proliferation of bacteria and the formation of mould on the
surfaces of grouts, making tiled surfaces hygienic and safe, thanks to the innovative BioBlock technology developed as a
result of MAPEI research.
This is a product with very low emission of volatile organic compounds and is classified Emicode EC1 Plus by GEV when
used for grouting.
Kerapoxy Easy Design may be mixed with up to 6 % by weight of MapeGlitter, metallised coloured glitter, to create
aesthetic effects. Percentage depends on the aesthetic effect and workability desired. MapeGlitter is available in silver and
gold.
Kerapoxy Easy Design may be mixed with Mapecolor Metallic, available in pre-dosed sachets (90 g, equal to 3% by weight
of a 3 kg drum of Kerapoxy Easy Design), powder pigment based on very high-quality pearlescent mica, to create a
metallic effect. Mapecolor Metallic is available in Moonlight (similar to platinum), Sahara (similar to gold), Shining (similar
to silver), Red clay (similar to copper), Stardust (similar to dark silver). In order to obtain a homogeneous mix, we suggest
to add Mapecolor Metallic of the desired colour to Kerapoxy Easy Design 700 (translucent).
Mixing Mapecolor Metallic with Kerapoxy Easy Design of other colours may result in numerous metallic effects with
different intensity and shades. It is recommended to carry out preliminary tests since the result may vary based on the
colours and quantities used, however within the maximum dosage of 3% by weight so that the workability of the
grout/mortar is not affected.
When applied correctly, Kerapoxy Easy Design produces joints with the following characteristics:
· excellent mechanical strength and resistance to chemicals, therefore excellent durability;
· smooth and compact surface finish which is non-absorbent and easy to clean; it guarantees a high level of hygiene,
where a high protection from the formation and proliferation of micro-organisms (such as fungus and mould) is
required;
· excellent workability, much better than traditional epoxy mortars thanks to its creamy consistency, which guarantees
faster application times and makes it easier to clean from surfaces, with less waste and easier to obtain a good finish;
· no shrinkage and no cracks;
· uniform colours, resistant to UV rays and atmospheric agents;
· excellent bond;
· certified according to ISO 22196:2011 as a grouting mortar protected against the formation and proliferation of microorganisms.
