Everbuild Opti-Mix Mortar Plasticiser is a highly concentrated air entraining liquid plasticising admixture which improves the workability of mortar as it forms extremely stable air bubbles in mortar mixes. This gives the mortar mixes a 'buttery' consistency and helps prevent shrinkage, cracking, crazing and mild frost damage during the curing process.

Everbuild Opti-Mix Mortar Plasticiser is a highly concentrated air entraining liquid plasticising admixture which is 25 times the strength of conventional products.
Everbuild Opti-Mix Mortar Plasticiser forms extremely stable air bubbles in mortar mixes.
This improves the workability of mortar, giving it a “buttery” consistency and helps prevent shrinkage, cracking, crazing and mild frost damage during the curing process, as well as providing long term resistance to freeze / thaw cycles.
Everbuild Opti-Mix Mortar Plasticiser replaces lime in the mix and hence reduces the chance of efflorescence (salt formation) and smoothes out variations between separate batches of sand and cement.
Everbuild Opti-Mix Mortar Plasticiser is used for the following applications:
Pointing Mortars
Renders
Screeds
Bricklaying Mortars
Everbuild Opti-Mix Mortar Plasticiser has been tested to BS EN 934-Part 3.
