webercol flex éco, the low environmental impact tile adhesive mortar from Weber

As the world leader in industrial mortars, Weber stands out for an exemplary environmental commitment that drives every solution and service it develops. webercol flex éco, the best-selling of its tile adhesive mortars, is emblematic of this eco-responsible approach. Designed for laying tiles and natural stone indoors and outdoors, webercol flex éco is manufactured in France under the Origine France Garantie label, favoring short supply chains.

webercol flex éco: eco-design as its DNA
The exclusive patented formulation of webercol flex éco uses new raw materials derived from the recovery of industrial co-products (notably slag in place of cement), in order to reduce the use of natural resources and CO2 emissions. Weber has also made available a specific FDES (Environmental and Health Declaration Sheet) to measure the reduction of its environmental impact (available on the website www.fr.weber). Compared with a tile adhesive mortar of the same performance class, the production of webercol flex éco achieves a reduction of:

- 50 % in CO2 emissions;
- 28 % in water consumption;
- 27 % in the use of non-renewable energy;
- 25 % in resource depletion.

It should be emphasized that webercol flex éco confirms Weber's commitment to local presence and regional development, thanks to French manufacturing that allows optimized transport, a smaller carbon footprint, the use of local resources and proximity to regional businesses. Another environmental asset: with very low VOC emissions, webercol flex éco contributes to indoor air quality, holding the A+ label as well as the EC1 PLUS rating (the highest score) under the EMICODE protocol.

Ideal ease of application and exceptional versatility
Tilers, who are increasingly aware of eco-friendly practices, will appreciate the environmental performance of this flexible tile adhesive mortar, which is matched by optimal technical performance. Indeed, weber col flex éco combines advantages, offering both efficiency and comfort on site. Quick mixing, a dust-free formulation and a creamy texture make it the easiest adhesive to apply on the market. Its versatility (laying of tiles and natural stone, such as marble, limestone and granite, on indoor and outdoor walls and floors, wooden floors, underfloor heating, concrete slabs, existing tiles, strip parquet, mastic asphalt screeds...) and its compatibility with large-format tiles mean it adapts to a wide range of projects. Its field of use has also been extended, as it can now also be applied on anhydrite screed without primer, and its formulation has just been optimized to further increase its drying speed.

Finally, the innovative composition of weber col flex éco makes the product less irritating, ensuring well-being for the craftsman who applies it with complete peace of mind (as proof, it requires no safety labeling on the packaging: no more hazard symbols or risk phrases).

With weber col flex éco, Weber more than ever demonstrates its commitment to ?eco-committed? construction sites! This tile adhesive mortar with low environmental impact satisfies both project owners and project managers who build High Environmental Quality buildings certified BREEAM and LEED, distributors who like to promote products in line with Sustainable Development to their customers, and also private individuals looking for environmentally friendly solutions.
