Why is lightweight gypsum mortar more cost-effective than cement mortar?

Lightweight gypsum mortar is newer, more environmentally friendly and more economical than cement mortar. It not only has the strength of cement, but is also healthier, more environmentally friendly and durable than cement. It has strong adhesion, is not easy to powder, is not easy to crack, is not easy to hollow out, and does not fall off. Powder and other advantages, easy to use, reduce costs. In terms of price, lightweight gypsum mortar is more expensive than cement mortar, but lightweight gypsum mortar for plastering has many advantages. Taken together, the cost of lightweight gypsum mortar per square meter is lower than cement mortar. Next, the editor will explain to you the differences and advantages of lightweight gypsum mortar and cement mortar.

Comparison of the two mortars

1. Basically solve the problems of hollowing, cracking and falling off of the plaster layer. It also shortens the plastering period, 1.5-2 times longer than the traditional cement mortar plastering process.

2. To make a 100㎡ facing wall, the labor quota for technical operations is required. The labor quota for gypsum mixture is 83.4h, and the labor quota for cement-lime mixture is 167.2h. . Comparing the two, lightweight gypsum mortar reduces a large number of operating procedures and saves about 1 times the labor consumption.

3. It can eliminate the need for roughening the concrete surface and shorten the plastering period.

4. Theo’s lightweight gypsum mortar is strong, fast and hard, suitable for rushing construction periods.

5. Lightweight gypsum mortar has relatively strong bonding properties and basically no hollowing or cracking, reducing rework.

6. Lightweight gypsum mortar produces less dust on the ground during construction, reducing material waste and cleaning labor.

7. Lightweight gypsum mortar is a Class A fireproof material, which can improve the fireproofing, sound insulation, thermal insulation, etc. of the building.

8. Gypsum is more suitable for winter construction than mortar and cement mortar, which can save a lot of winter construction insulation costs. </p
