In the resin industry, levelling screed is a vital component for preparing substrates before the installation of resin flooring systems. It consists of a thin layer of material applied over the substate to create a smooth and even surface, which is essential for optimal adhesion and the performance of the upcoming resin layers.

The process of levelling screed involves priming the substrate, mixing the screed components, pouring, smoothing, and curing. Techniques such as feathering are used to ensure a seamless transition between different flooring levels while properties like abrasion resistance and moisture tolerance enhance the durability and longevity of the flooring system.

Key considerations in levelling screed application include thickness, compatibility with resin systems, and proper surface preparation.

Achieving the correct thickness is extremely important to ensure optimal performance is accomplished, while compatibility ensures seamless integration and long-term durability. Carrying out proper surface preparation (including cleaning, degreasing, and repairing substrate imperfections) is vital before applying the screed, as any problems on the surface won’t allow the desired flawless surface. Following quality control procedures, such as testing for thickness and adhesion, further guarantees the reliability and longevity of the levelling screed and the subsequent resin flooring system.
