A-Joint® Ready is the ready-to-use jointing mortar for patios, paths and driveways around the home, load-bearing up to 3.5 tonnes. It is pre-mixed, vacuum-packed and hardens on contact with air.
A-Joint® Ready powered by ECCO comes vacuum-packed in a 15 or 25 kg PCR bucket and is ready to use immediately. No mixing, no second component, no mixing ratio to get wrong. The vacuum packaging keeps the mortar usable for 24 months in its original packaging, so leftovers from previous sites can be used again straight away.
Designed for the kind of work landscaping contractors deal with every week: patios, footpaths and cycle paths, garden paths, courtyards and driveways subjected to passenger cars. With a traffic load of up to 3.5 tonnes, A-Joint® Ready powered by ECCO easily supports the average residential driveway. Suitable for virtually all natural stone and concrete paving.
A-Joint® Ready powered by ECCO cures through contact with air, not by drying out. Installation in light rain or damp weather is therefore not a problem. For landscaping contractors, that means: schedules remain achievable, no need to reschedule the jobsite because the shower arrives an hour earlier, no half day lost on labour costs.
A ready-to-use 1-component jointing mortar that is water-permeable, weed-inhibiting and self-compacting, for all paving around the house up to 3.5 tonnes.
