You can get this in multiple brands (look for type) Basically this type has good amount of polymers and also gives Hugh slip resistance (explained in the podcast) apart from extended open time. Maintain 3 mm spacers which will give a very good look. You may use epoxy grout in colour of your choice or even superior PU grout.

Hello, can you please suggest the tile adhesive to be used for internal wall vitrified tiles 600mm x 600mm size in earthquake zone of Kutch region of Gujarat. Tile will be applied on cement plaster surface.Thank you
The first and most important step in earthquake-prone areas is to ensure that the building structure itself is designed and constructed to withstand seismic activity. Before considering surface coverings like tiles or stones, the building's foundation and walls must be reinforced for earthquake resistance. Once that is in place, you can focus on the appropriate adhesives for finishing materials. A good adhesive plays two key roles in such environments: 1. Strong Adhesion: It should firmly bond the tile or stone to the substrate, ensuring the surface stays intact during normal conditions. 2. Deformability (Flexibility): It must also be flexible enough to accommodate slight movements caused by seismic activity or thermal expansion without causing the tiles to crack or delaminate. Two types of adhesives that are better suited for bathroom walls in earthquake-prone areas are: 1. Polymer-Modified Thinset Mortar (C2TE S1 or S2): These adhesives are enhanced with polymers to provide high bond strength and flexibility. C2TE S1 adhesives offer improved flexibility, while C2TE S2 provides even greater deformability, making them ideal for areas that may experience structural movement. 2. Polyurethane (PU) Adhesives: PU adhesives are highly flexible and can absorb vibrations and movement, providing both strong adhesion and flexibility. They are also moisture-resistant, making them suitable for bathroom installations in seismic zones. Both of these adhesives can provide the necessary strength and flexibility to ensure that tiles or stones stay securely attached to walls. Thank you.
