Yes, Sika’s repair mortars are formulated to meet the requirements of EN 1504 and other relevant international standards, ensuring performance, durability and long-term protection.

What is the difference between structural and non-structural repair mortars?

How important is surface preparation before applying repair mortar?

Proper surface preparation is essential for bond strength and long-term performance. This usually involves removing loose or damaged concrete, cleaning the surface and sometimes applying a bonding primer.
