Insulated EPS screed
Tiling-ready insulation screed floor structure 1, 2 & 3 - Choose a different floor structure
+4.5 - storey, ground floor, basement, ... - with concrete slab as substrate - tiles
This insulated screed can be tiled directly after 3 to 4 days of drying time, provided a primer and a layer of levelling compound or tile adhesive are applied, whereas a traditional screed requires 28 days.
Information
This lightweight floor structure is ideal for spaces with limited floor build-up height. The Staenis grid makes it possible in this situation to insulate your floor structure, level it, and tile it quickly.
The tileable insulation screed can, with primer and a thin levelling compound or tile adhesive layer, be directly covered with tiles after 3 to 4 days of drying time, whereas for a screed this is 28 days.
A floor structure with tileable insulation screed is 7 times lighter than a traditional screed and very pleasant to install. The tiles will also feel warmer due to the insulating effect of the screed.
Use Cem Mini instead of tileable insulation screed if you plan to install laminate or a floating floor covering directly on top. We still recommend a primer and a thin levelling compound layer to make the surface less rough and easier to finish with tiles, laminate, or a floating floor covering.
Advantages
- Achieve a perfect end result without experience
- Directly tileable after 3 days, provided that a cement slurry layer is applied.
- Lightweight (7 times lighter than a sand-cement screed) and sound-insulating floor
- No expansion joints needed
- Possibility to insulate your (very) low floor build-up over the entire thickness.
- Spreading screed work over several days (no stress during placement)

Electric underfloor heating under tiles
Electric underfloor heating can be installed on top of tileable insulation screed after the layer is fully dry and primed. The insulating layer limits downward heat loss, so the heat is mainly emitted upward through the tiles.
Always follow the instructions from the manufacturer of the electric underfloor heating, primer, tile adhesive, and tile finish.
Tileable insulation screed compatible with WARP underfloor heating system Speetile 10
SpeeTile is suitable for underfloor heating and cooling. This 'wet construction' system is the thinnest water-based system for underfloor heating and cooling. The SpeeTile system is also suitable as primary heating.
1. Apply our primer for absorbent substrates to the tileable insulation screed.
2. Install the Warp Speetile 10 system. Attach the plastic system to the tileable insulation screed with the supplied black U plugs.
3. Pour the fast-drying SpeeTop filler over the plastic system and check with a laser and meter that everything is at the correct height.

We deliver tileable insulation screed in bags to your home
The insulation screed is pre-mixed with new EPS beads, combined with cement, water, and specific patented additives.
The EPS beads have a specially small diameter of 2mm-6mm, in order to achieve an even flatter result with the Staenis grid.
Tileable insulation screed can only be installed in combination with the Staenis grid. The Staenis grid is moisture-resistant, absorbs all shrinkage, and ensures perfectly level installation and reinforcement.
We deliver self-levelling compound and the appropriate primer to your home
This cement levelling compound, which can handle layer thicknesses up to 10 mm, is ideal for levelling, evening out, and smoothing tileable insulation screed and screed subfloors.
This layer of levelling compound ensures that the rough surface of the insulation screed is nicely smoothed out, making it much easier to tile.
Fast-drying dispersion primer for the pretreatment of tileable insulation screed/insulation mortar, screed, or concrete. Reinforces the top layer and ensures that the tile adhesive/levelling compound adheres better and dries less quickly on the absorbent substrate.
Tip: The consumption for tileable insulation screed/insulation mortar is much higher than for screed. You can solve this by adding water to the primer, depending on the number of m².
We deliver strong lightweight screed to your home
Cem Mini is a tileable insulating screed that is no less than five times stronger than our current Strong version. This increased strength allows floating floor coverings, such as laminate, to be installed directly on top – without the need for a levelling compound or OSB layer (although a primer with a thin levelling compound layer does provide a smoother surface). Tiles can also be bonded directly to this substrate. Cem Mini is also suitable for use on flat roofs, where waterproofing can be applied directly. This lightly insulating screed weighs three times less than a traditional screed, but three times more than the Strong tileable insulating screed version.
