LAVAPOXY RE is a two-component, solvent-free epoxy-based putty formulated for repairing and re-profiling structural concrete defects. It features a coarse finish and thixotropic behavior, making it ideal for bedding, gap filling, and leveling up to 6 mm thick on vertical and overhead surfaces. The pre-measured kit ensures easy mixing and application. LAVAPOXY RE adheres excellently to concrete and is non-shrinking, offering high compressive strength and outstanding resistance to abrasion, chemicals, and impact. Its chemical resistance covers oils, salts, acids, alkalis, and sewage, making it suitable for harsh environments requiring durable and long-term repairs.
Lavapoxy RE is a two-part thixotropic epoxy putty applied by trowel, filling knife or spatula to mechanically prepared, dry concrete.

Standards and test methods as referenced in the Lavapoxy Re Technical Data Sheet. Values in the TDS are typical laboratory results under standard conditions.
Application thickness is 1.0 to 6.0 mm, from feather edge up to a maximum of 6 mm depending on the substrate profile.
1.0 liter of Lavapoxy RE covers 1 square meter at 1 mm thickness.
Pot life of the mixture is 60 minutes at 25°C and the recoating interval is 24 hours. Application temperature is from +5°C to +40°C.
Yes. When mixed it is thixotropic and non-slump, so it can be applied on vertical and overhead surfaces.
It is supplied in 4 liter two-part metal containers. Store in original packing in dry conditions away from direct sunlight in a temperature-controlled warehouse; shelf life is 12 months from production date in unopened original packing.
