Kerakoll H40 Advanced White Rapid-Setting Gel Adhesive 20kg

Kerakoll H40 Advanced White is a professional rapid-setting gel tile adhesive designed for premium wall and floor tile installations.

Coverage Guide

Kerakoll H40 Advanced White has an approximate consumption of 1.2kg per m² for every 1mm of adhesive thickness. Actual coverage will depend on tile size, trowel depth, substrate condition and installation method.

  • 3mm adhesive bed: approximately 5.5m² per 20kg bag.
  • 5mm adhesive bed: approximately 3.3m² per 20kg bag.
  • 8mm adhesive bed: approximately 2m² per 20kg bag.

Installation Advice

Before applying Kerakoll H40 Advanced White, ensure the surface is clean, dry, stable and free from dust, grease or loose material. For light-coloured natural stone, marble and translucent mosaics, the white adhesive helps reduce the risk of colour shadowing from the adhesive bed.

For large-format tiles, external installations, heated floors and wet rooms, back-buttering is recommended to achieve full adhesive contact and reduce voids beneath the tile. Always select the correct trowel size and follow Kerakoll’s fixing guidance.

Can H40 Advanced White be used outdoors?

Is it suitable for marble and natural stone?
