Advantages of MorTec® DRAIN

  • Thin-layer:
    MorTec® DRAIN reduces the required construction height by at least 25 mm compared to cement-based drainage mortar systems (approx. 50-70 mm construction height). This makes it ideal for renovation work or if the necessary construction height is lacking.
  • Reliable:
    MorTec® DRAIN, in combination with AquaDrain® EK surface drainage, assists rapid drainage and speeds up the drying of natural stone coverings. The complete system including AquaDrain® drain grates also guarantees optimum drainage of door threshold areas.
