Larsen SBR Bond (Larcem 25) is a premium synthetic rubber polymer emulsion designed to significantly enhance the performance of cement-based mortars, screeds, renders, and repair compounds. Used as both a bonding agent and admixture, this versatile SBR latex improves strength, durability, flexibility, and water resistance in a wide range of construction and refurbishment applications.

When mixed with cement, SBR Bond produces a highly effective bonding slurry that promotes excellent adhesion between existing substrates and new screeds, renders, or repair mortars. As an admixture, it enhances the physical properties of cementitious mixes, allowing the production of high-strength screeds, thin-section screeds, waterproof mortars, patch repairs, and durable rendering systems.

The advanced polymer formulation improves flexural and tensile strength while increasing abrasion and chemical resistance. It also reduces shrinkage and water permeability, helping create more durable and long-lasting construction solutions. Being non-corrosive to steel, Larsen SBR Bond is suitable for use in reinforced concrete repairs and structural applications.

Ideal for contractors, builders, flooring specialists, and repair professionals, Larsen SBR Bond delivers reliable performance across domestic, commercial, industrial, and civil engineering projects.
