Without water able to freely penetrate these materials, efflorescence cannot occur. The labour and cost savings are a big advantage, and bad weather is less of a worry with construction times. Tiles can even be wet-bedded using the Efflock system. Efflock is also ideal to mix with tile adhesive and grout which are also known sources of efflorescence.
