Description
ELVI Floorfix PRO is a high-quality, water-based acrylic tackifier adhesive designed for removable floor coverings such as carpet tiles (with textile, felt, bitumen, or PVC backing), vinyl and PVC tiles, as well as LVT loose-lay planks. The adhesive forms a permanently tacky film that ensures secure fixation of the floor covering while allowing it to be easily lifted and re-laid, for example, during renovations or space reconfiguration.
The product is solvent-free and 2-ethylhexanol-free, with very low emissions (M1 classification), ensuring safe use in indoor environments with high air quality requirements — such as offices, schools, and healthcare facilities. The adhesive is environmentally friendly and provides long-lasting durability while maintaining flexibility and tack throughout its service life.
Surface preparation & application
The substrate must be dry, firm, level, and clean, with a relative humidity below 75%. It must be free from dust, grease, paint, plaster residues, wax, or polishing agents. Porous surfaces should be primed and fully dried, while smooth, painted surfaces should be sanded to a matte finish and cleaned. During renovation, ELVI Floorfix PRO can be applied over existing PVC or linoleum flooring, provided that all dirt and wax residues have been completely removed beforehand. A properly prepared surface ensures maximum adhesion and extends the adhesive’s service life.
Before use, stir the adhesive thoroughly and apply a thin, even layer with a roller. Allow it to dry until it reaches a tacky stage, then install the floor covering. The waiting time before tack formation is 35–60 minutes on absorbent surfaces and 1.5–2 hours on non-absorbent surfaces (at +23 °C, 50% RH). The consumption rate is approximately 6–12 m² per liter, depending on the substrate and application method. For underfloor heating, switch the heating off 48 hours before installation, and turn it back on gradually after 7 days. The adhesive is intended for indoor use only.
Disposal
Hardened material and packaging should be disposed of as household waste.
