Feb® Wintamix

Feb® Wintamix

Frostproofer and mortar plasticiser.

Feb® Wintamix is a chloride free, liquid admixture which combines acceleration with the proven frost protection benefits of air entrainment in mortars, thus allowing work to continue even at sub-zero temperatures.

  • Increases frost resistance during setting.
  • Faster finishing times - even in cold weather.
  • Improves workability.
  • Easier and faster to spread mortar.
  • Remains plastic for longer.
  • Promotes higher strength at an early stage.
  • Non-corrosive to embedded metals.
  • Economical.
  • Cuts labour costs, less materials used.
  • Less waste.
  • Does not contribute to efflorescence.
  • Reduces bleed or segregation.
