Introducing Ardex Flexbone revolutionary uncoupling systems

Ardex Flexbone
April 4, 2016

ALIQUIPPA, PA -- Ardez UI 720™ Floating Uncoupling Membrane and Ardex UI 740™ Uncoupling Membrane are now available for purchase at Ardex distributors throughout North America.

"Ardex Flexbone® uncoupling systems with GripLock Technology deliver an enhanced level of protection for tile and stone installations," said Russ Gaetano, Ardex Americas Tile & Stone Installation Systems Marketing Manager. "This unique technology provides improved shear resistance and bond strength."

Ardex UI 720™ Floating Uncoupling Membrane is the only unbonded, 100% uncoupling system available in the industry. It can be used over difficult substrates and is ideal for frequently changed floors in boutique retail stores, multi-unit housing, showrooms and trade show exhibits.

"Ardex UI 720™ Floating Uncoupling Membrane saves installers time and money by eliminating several steps required in traditional uncoupling installations," said Mark Pennine, Ardex Tile & Stone Installation Systems Technical Manager. "Simply unroll the mat over the substrate; no setting mortar required."

Ardex UI 740™ Uncoupling Membrane high-load, bonded version is ideal for high-traffic, high-stress installations in airports, office buildings, hotel lobbies and condominiums. It provides waterproofing, maximum shear and tensile bond strengths.

When used in conjunction with Ardex mortars and grouts, Ardex UI 720™Flexbone® and Ardex UI 740™ Flexbone® are eligible for an Ardex SystemOne™ Warranty, the most comprehensive and the only true single source uncoupling system warranty available.
