  What does Efflock cost?

  It's actually much more cost effective than the usual method. In the scenario where you membrane first and screed second, using Efflock negates the need for a secondary membrane, and provides better protection. Efflock is designed for tile beds, and cement-based tile adhesives and grouts, providing complete protection for all 3 layers that cause leaching. 1 litre is enough additive for 16m2, or 3 typical-sized bathrooms. A typical rate for secondary membranes in the Sydney region is $30-40/m2 installed. By comparison, Efflock costs as little as $4/m2* to impregnate a 40mm thick screed, tile adhesive and grout. And remember, a secondary membrane serves no protection for adhesive...

  What does Efflock cost per square metre of tiling?

  Efflock prevents efflorescence and creates hydrophobic tile bed, adhesive and grout for around $3.87/m2 (for a 30mm thick tile bed). Compare that with the cost of a secondary membrane for at least $20/m2, and you're way in front Even with a tile bed 100mm thick you're saving cost and extra processes. Plus there are no hassles with inclement weather, no issues with trapping moisture between two membranes, and you even have the option to wet bed your tiles! Efflock allows the bed to permeate, meaning it will release moisture from the hydration process, whilst repelling water ingress.  Less cost, big time savings...
