Product Description
Flowpoint Eco grout has a high fluid consistency for early trafficking that conforms to the strict demands of British Standard BS 7533. It is ideal for all pavements where a rigid or bound void-free joint is required, and suitable for application in town centre pedestrian schemes, pathways and carriageways. It can be used with natural stone, concrete flags and clay paviours.
The product exceeds all the requirements of the latest British Standard. It has been in use for over 20 years in a variety of project environments including public realm, landscaping and domestic. Flowpoint Eco offers the same benefits as Flowpoint but contains 20% recycled material, significantly reducing the consumption of virgin aggregates and is ideal for schemes looking to achieve an ‘excellent’ CEEQUAL award, or where a BREEAM assessment is to be carried out.

Technical Details
Flowpoint Eco is a fully pre-mixed dry-pack which only requires the addition of water on-site. It can fill joints from 5 mm - 50 mm wide with a minimum target depth of 20 mm, up to 200 mm in one application. This highly fluid grout achieves a final compressive strength of 49.6 N/mm2 (results achieved using 4.25 litres of water per 25 kg bag), and will reach initial set in 30 minutes, will accept light foot traffic after 1 hour, and vehicular traffic after 4 hours (dependent upon temperature).
Mixing and Application
Once the paving is ready to receive the grout the following method must be adhered to:
- Immediately prior to jointing it must be ensured that the joints are free from debris and all ponded water removed
- The paving surface and joints must be pre-soaked and kept wet until the jointing process has been completed
- A 25kg bag requires 4.25 litres of water and must be mixed for between 3 and 5 minutes until a smooth lump-free consistency has been achieved
- Apply the mortar without delay. Do not store liquid mortar other than in transit from mixer
- Mortar must be carefully forced into the joints using a suitable rubber squeegee
- The mortar should be constantly moved over the surface to repeatedly top up joints in which the mortar may have slumped following initial placement
- Use the rubber squeegee to remove as much mortar as possible from the surface
- The surface must be kept constantly moist using a soft spray of water
- When the jointing mortar has hardened sufficiently or achieved its initial set the paving surface must be cleaned using a brush and copious amounts of water
- Cleaning must be carried out thoroughly and no mortar must be allowed to remain on the surface of the paving
Precautions
- Wash all tools frequently
- Mix only enough material to apply in 4 minutes
- Never remix or add extra water
- Wear protective clothing
- Cool temperatures retard, warm temperatures accelerate
Please note: a small trial should be done to ensure compatibility with the stone being used as it is impossible to test all stone types.
