What is Dry Mortar?
Earlier mortars were produced by masons or plasterers directly at the building site. This method could not provide for the constant quality of mortars. To guarantee the constant quality, dry mortars are nowadays factory produced and pre-mixed, and delivered to the building site in bags and silos. After mixing with water directly at the building site, dry mortars are immediately ready to use. Advantages of dry mortars Since dry mortars are pre-mixed at the plant, any dosing and mixing errors can be excluded. This is a guarantee for the production of top-quality products. Since mortars can be applied both manually and mechanically, construction process becomes more rational. Dry mortars can be produced for various specific applications. Application of dry mortars of dry mortars In order to be ready to use, dry mortars must be mixed with water directly at the building site. This can be made both manually and with continuous mixers.
