Though they have much experience of tuffbau's high performance tuffset® G, Coburger Entsorgungs und Baubetrieb CEB - were trying out tufftop slurry grout for the first time today (May 8).
Their previous experience stood them in good stead and the job -- to re-grout the paving cobbles in a city bus stop lay-by - was done from start to finish with little fuss.
Expert pavers scored full marks from the tuffbau® management team, on site to witness the exercise. tufftop® is a high performance jointing mortar suitable for all types of natural stone and modular paving.

tufftop®
Thoroughly mixed with a high water content, tufftop® becomes a plastic, free-flowing slurry grout which is easy to work with and makes pavement surface cleaning very straightforward.
Its natural ingredients prevent the shrinkage problems associated with the polymer additives used by other manufacturers, and with its optimum elastic modulus, high performance is achieved without compromise. Its all-round proven quality, ease of use and good economy are unrivalled.
