Sikaflor® PS 6 kilograms

Professional epoxy paste for concrete repair and surface leveling When it comes to concrete repair, the quality of the material used determines the fate of the entire project — whether the work will withstand years or the crack will return to its original place. This is exactly what Sika epoxy paste answers. What is Sika epoxy paste? Sika epoxy paste is a two-component repair compound based on high-performance epoxy resins. It is used to repair concrete, fill cracks, and level surfaces before applying industrial coating systems. It is distributed in Saudi Arabia by Ibdah Al-Omran as the authorized distributor of Swiss Sika. It features high mechanical adhesion strength and documented chemical resistance according to standard tests such as ASTM C881 and ASTM C882. When you are looking for a repair material that gives you real results on-site, Sikafloor® PS 6 kg is the trusted choice of professional contractors. This two-component epoxy paste, from Swiss Sika with accumulated industry expertise, is specifically designed to treat damaged concrete surfaces — whether fine cracks, wide pores, or floors needing leveling before coating. The product is now available at Ibdah Al-Omran, the authorized distributor of Sika waterproofing products in Saudi Arabia, with specialized technical support and shipping to all regions.

Note that this value varies depending on surface roughness and application method. Advantages and benefits of Sika epoxy paste Why do professionals choose Sikafloor® PS? 1 - It’s not just about specifications on paper. Those working in industrial and commercial projects know that the real difference appears months after application — and here, Sikafloor® PS proves its value. 2 - Precise crack and pore sealing efficiently fills gaps and creates a uniform surface, ready to receive industrial coating layers without obstacles. Certified chemical resistance Suitable for industrial floors and warehouses exposed daily to oils and chemicals, according to documented laboratory resistance tests. 3 - Long-term stability maintains its mechanical properties without cracking or noticeable shrinkage — provided it is applied correctly according to the company's instructions. 4 - Easy to apply with a balanced consistency that allows spreading and smoothing using standard hand tools, without the need for specialized equipment. 5 - Strong mechanical adhesion bonds with concrete through robust mechanical and chemical bonds, and in most cases, does not require complex preparatory treatments. 6 - Compatibility with epoxy paints provides a stable, uniform base for applying industrial epoxy flooring systems, enhancing the final quality. Comparison with Sika epoxy versus polymer cement mortar When choosing between the two options, the differences are clear. Sika epoxy paste outperforms in concrete adhesion strength by a large margin, with ≥ 3.0 MPa versus only 1.0 – 1.5 MPa for cement mortar. In terms of compressive resistance, it reaches 60 – 70 MPa after 7 days, whereas cement mortar only reaches 25 – 35 MPa. Chemical resistance is a decisive advantage for epoxy — very high and documented by standard tests, while limited in cement mortar. Additionally, shrinkage after curing is almost zero (<0.1%) in Sikafloor®, whereas it remains possible in mortar. Regarding readiness for painting, epoxy paste cures within 24 hours compared to 48 – 72 hours for mortar. The natural result of all this: a longer lifespan in harsh industrial environments for Sikafloor® PS paste. Practical applications 1 - For contractors and construction companies On construction sites, application time is limited and results are required quickly. Sikafloor® PS meets both conditions: - Repair of damaged concrete surfaces: fixing cracks and corrosion in floors and walls - Surface leveling: preparing concrete surfaces before epoxy application - Filling small holes: accurately and efficiently filling weak points - Repair of columns and walls: restoring minor structural damages 2 - For industrial and commercial projects Industrial environments do not accept temporary solutions. For this reason, this paste is the most suitable choice for: - Warehouse floors: leveling and strengthening surfaces subjected to heavy and repeated loads - Workshops and factories: repairing floors damaged by continuous chemical exposure - Parking lots and garages: repairing cracks caused by constant vehicle movement - Commercial kitchens: preparing floors to withstand moisture and food materials 3 - For maintenance and finishing works Good finishing starts with surface preparation, not the final coating: - Sealing pores before painting: to ensure a uniform, void-free coating layer - Filling gaps and cracks: to reduce water and moisture infiltration - Enhancing surface durability: improving load-bearing capacity before final finishing works How to use Sika epoxy paste Proper application is half the success — follow these steps in order: Preparation: Clean the surface thoroughly, remove dust and oils, and ensure it is completely dry before starting. Mixing: Mix the two components at a 2:1 ratio by weight, using a slow-speed mixer (300–400 rpm) until a completely homogeneous consistency is achieved. Application: Use a trowel or putty knife to evenly spread the material on the surface. Smoothing: Level the surface within the Pot Life window (30–45 minutes) — do not delay. Waiting: Allow the paste to fully cure (24 hours) before any subsequent steps. Frequently Asked Questions Can Sikafloor® PS be used on outdoor surfaces? Yes, it can be used outdoors with confidence. The product withstands the large temperature fluctuations common in Saudi Arabia’s climate, and it is recommended to protect it with a final epoxy layer to increase UV resistance and extend its lifespan. Ibdah Al-Omran’s technical team can advise on the appropriate system for your site. How much area does a 6 kg bag cover? At 1 mm thickness, it covers approximately 3 – 3.5 m², based on a consumption rate of 1.8 – 2.0 kg/m². Actual coverage is affected by the roughness and porosity of the concrete surface; very rough surfaces may consume higher amounts. Always calculate quantities accurately before starting. Is it suitable for wide cracks? Yes, suitable for wide cracks provided they are thoroughly cleaned and any loose materials are removed from the sides. For cracks deeper than 10 mm, it is preferable to fill in multiple layers to ensure full curing and optimal adhesion. For deep structural cracks, contact Ibdah Al-Omran’s technical support team for proper recommendations. Does it need a primer before application? In most cases and on normal surfaces, no primer is required, making it practical and time-saving. However, for highly porous surfaces or those previously contaminated with oil, it is recommended to use a Sika epoxy primer to improve adhesion and ensure maximum performance. Ibdah Al-Omran’s team can evaluate the surface and determine if a primer is needed. Can it be painted after curing? Yes, after full curing (24 hours at 25°C), the surface is fully ready to receive epoxy paints or specialized industrial flooring systems. Sikafloor® PS, after curing, provides a uniform, flat base that offers a better finish and longer lifespan for the final coating.
