The Uzin starting eleven for success on the floor

For many years, Uzin has been supplying the UZIN Selection to make the daily work of floor installation easier. The range is small and clearly organised, made up of primers, levelling compounds and adhesives, and it covers most applications. Over the years, this product selection has been repeatedly adapted to market conditions as they have changed. Now, Uzin is taking the launch of the new FusionTec levelling compounds as an opportunity to present an optimised version of the UZIN Selection. Thanks to changes to meet the goal of "as few products as possible, as many as necessary", the UZIN Selection will therefore include eleven products in future, covering 90% of all applications. All the products are exceptionally user-friendly, safe, reliable and very low-emission. Uzin is presenting the selected levelling compounds, primers and adhesives for installing different floor coverings for the first time at the FAF - FARBE, AUSBAU & FASSADE trade fair in Cologne in April.

The new version of the UZIN Selection is designed to make searching for suitable products for floor installation even easier. It has eleven perfectly matched products that are already integrated into installation systems. Steffen Kallus, Head of the Uzin Business Unit, describes the range as follows: "With this reduced selection of installation materials, we want to provide trade professionals with customised solutions for almost all applications." The selection of reliable and user-friendly products is intended to make it easier to find the right product, provide certainty and therefore make work economical and efficient. "Thanks to our many years of experience of flooring, UZIN continues to provide a proven and extensive range of products for special applications," adds Kallus.

Safe to use: the eleven tools in the UZIN Selection

The UZIN Selection consists of adhesives: UZIN MK 200 for wood flooring, UZIN KE 2000 S for PVC, CV, luxury, textile and linoleum floor coverings; and the highly shear-resistant UZIN KE 66 for luxury and rubber flooring. UZIN KE 66 is now available in a revised quality with increased temperature resistance and highly CO₂-reduced (over 90% reduction according to internally calculated value (see ECO₂CHOICE label - as of 10/24)). The UZIN Sigan 2 dry adhesive is suitable for installing PVC, CV and textile floor coverings as sheets and panels, is ready for foot traffic immediately and can be removed later without leaving any residue. The UZIN U-Tack adhesive tape can be used on walls, as covering strips, for support profiles and cove skirting. The ready-to-use UZIN PE 414 BiTurbo and UZIN PE 360 PLUS primers dry exceptionally quickly on different substrates, while the filling cementitious UZIN PE 650 dispersion primer is suitable for old substrates.

Reliable and climate-conscious levelling

Uzin has chosen three products for the UZIN Selection, so that users can reliably apply levelling compounds to all substrates. The moisture-resistant, low-slump UZIN NC 182 levelling and repair compound is an indispensable all-rounder in the Uzin range. It is easy to apply and can be remixed in the bucket. The highly versatile UZIN NC 567 thin screed and the high-strength, self-levelling UZIN NC 580 premium levelling compound come from the new generation of FusionTec levelling compounds. They are ready for covering quickly, have excellent flow properties and are virtually tension-free. The high quality of processing and optimum technical properties are based on a new binding agent technology. These levelling compounds and thin screeds are very low-emission, have reduced CO₂ and certifications including EMICODE EC1 Plus, EPD, LEED contributing product and the Blue Angel eco-label, which is a label for environmentally friendly products and services.

Convincing selection: as few as possible, as many as necessary

When choosing products for the UZIN Selection, the aim was to have "as few as possible, as many as necessary". As the products have a wide range of applications and are matched to each other, they can cover up to 90% of applications, when used as a system. A brochure presents the eleven products in the UZIN Selection range and describes their main applications. (uzin.com/selection).
