TLA

TLA is manufactured by combining cement and expanded polystyrene (EPS) beads. EPS beads are tough and lightweight thermoplastic beads ideal for construction due to their light weight, strength, and excellent thermal insulation properties. 

About TLA

TLA or Thermal Lightweight Aggregate is a revolutionary system designed as a replacement for beam and block floor systems and insulation boards.

TLA is manufactured by combining cement and expanded polystyrene (EPS) beads. EPS beads are tough and lightweight thermoplastic beads ideal for construction due to their light weight, strength, and excellent thermal insulation properties. When combined with concrete, you’re left with TLA.

TLA offers a range of benefits for clients including quicker installation time, better thermal and acoustic properties, zero waste, lightweight, and flexibility (TLA can be adapted to meet thickness requirements, weight and thermal performance, etc.).

The Benefits

Efficient Heat Conductivity

TLA floor screed's excellent heat conductivity makes it perfect for underfloor heating systems. Its thin composition evenly distributes heat, providing consistent warmth throughout the room. This not only enhances comfort but also reduces energy costs, offering an environmentally friendly and cost-effective heating solution.

Greatly Enhanced Durability and Strength

TLA (Thin Layer Application) floor screed offers remarkable durability and strength by creating a tough, crack-resistant layer over concrete. This ensures longevity, reduces maintenance, and maintains the structural integrity of the flooring, even under heavy use and loads.

Rapid Installation and Time Savings

TLA floor screed's thin application leads to faster drying and curing times compared to traditional screeds. This rapid installation accelerates construction timelines, minimises disruptions, and allows for earlier occupancy of spaces. It's an invaluable asset for meeting tight project schedules.
