Marmox Multiboards offer good tiling stability by absorbing movement, preventing cracks, and ensuring long-lasting tile installations.

Redefining Tiling Stability with Decoupling

At Marmox, we are committed to providing innovative solutions that enhance the durability and longevity of tiling installations. Our expertise extends to the application of decoupling techniques, a crucial aspect of ensuring the stability and integrity of tiled floors and walls. Discover how Marmox Multiboards serve as highly effective decouplers, absorbing movement to prevent tiles from shifting and cracking.

Why Decoupling Matters

Decoupling is a fundamental principle in tiling installations, especially in areas subject to structural movement or substrate expansion. Without proper decoupling, tiles are susceptible to stress from substrate shifts, leading to unsightly cracks and compromised aesthetics. By incorporating decoupling elements, such as Marmox Multiboards, into tiling projects, you can mitigate these risks and ensure long-term performance.

The Role of Marmox Multiboards as Decouplers

Marmox Multiboards function as exceptional decoupling agents, providing a buffer between the substrate and the tile surface.

Here's how they work:

Flexibility: Multiboards possess a degree of flexibility that allows them to absorb movement in both floors and walls. Whether due to thermal expansion, structural settling, or other factors, Multiboards adjust to accommodate these shifts, minimizing stress on the tile assembly.
Crack Prevention: By acting as a decoupler, Multiboards help prevent the transfer of substrate movement to the tile surface. This proactive approach significantly reduces the likelihood of tile cracking, preserving the aesthetic appeal and structural integrity of the installation.
Uniform Support: Multiboards provide consistent support across the tiled surface, ensuring even distribution of weight and pressure. This feature minimizes localized stress points, further reducing the risk of tile damage over time.
Waterproofing Benefits: In addition to their decoupling properties, Multiboards offer inherent waterproofing capabilities, safeguarding the substrate from moisture infiltration. This added protection enhances the longevity of the entire tiling system, especially in wet areas like bathrooms and kitchens.

Applications of Decoupling with Marmox Multiboards

Floor Tiling: Use Multiboards as an underlayment for floor tiles to decouple them from the substrate, providing enhanced stability and crack resistance, particularly in high-traffic areas.
Wall Tiling: Incorporate Multiboards into wall tiling projects to mitigate the effects of structural movement and ensure long-lasting performance in various environments.
Renovation Projects: Upgrade existing tiled surfaces by installing Multiboards as a decoupling layer before retiling. This approach revitalizes the space while addressing underlying issues related to substrate movement.
Commercial Installations: From hotels and restaurants to office buildings and retail spaces, Multiboards offer a reliable solution for decoupling tiled surfaces in commercial settings where durability and aesthetics are paramount.
