ECO
Self-levelling, ultra quick-hardening smoothing
compound for thicknesses from 1 to 10 mm
WHERE TO USE
Ultraplan Eco, is used for levelling and smoothing differences in thicknesses from 1 to 10 mm on new or
existing substrates, preparing them to receive all kinds of flooring where excellent resistance to loads and
traffic is required.
Ultraplan Eco is especially suitable for areas subject to wheeled chairs.
Ultraplan Eco is for interior use only.
Some application examples
▪ Levelling concrete slabs or screeds based on cement, Mapecem, Mapecem Pronto, Topcem, Topcem
Pronto, anhydrite, and magnesite, including those with embedded underfloor heating systems.
▪ Levelling existing cement, terrazzo, ceramic, and natural stone floors.
TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS
Ultraplan Eco is a grey powder consisting of special cement with rapid setting and hydration, selected graded
silica sand, resins and special admixtures, prepared according to a formula developed in the MAPEI Research
Laboratories.
Mixed with water, Ultraplan Eco becomes a highly fluid and easily workable mortar, with perfect self-levelling
capacity, high adhesion to the substrate, and ultra-rapid drying.
Ultraplan Eco can be applied with an automatic pressure pump for distances over 100 m.
Ultraplan Eco can be spread in thicknesses up to 10 mm per coat without shrinkage, cracking or crazing, and
develops very high compressive and flexural strength, as well as resistance to indentation and abrasion.
Ultraplan Eco is ready to receive flooring after approximately after 3 hours in case of ceramic tiles and 12 hours
in case of resilient and wood flooring.
Ultraplan Eco has very low emissions of volatile organic compounds (EMICODE EC1 Plus).
RECOMMENDATIONS
▪ Do not add more water to the mix once it starts to set.
▪ Do not add lime, cement, or gypsum to the mix.
▪ Do not use Ultraplan Eco for exterior applications.
▪ Do not use Ultraplan Eco on substrates subject to continuous rising damp.
▪ If a coat of Ultraplan Contract needs to be applied once the preceding one is completely dry, first apply a
suitable
acrylic primer (such as Eco Prim T Plus or Primer G).
▪ Do not apply Ultraplan Eco at temperatures below +5°C.
▪ Do not apply Ultraplan Eco in thicknesses less than 3 mm when wooden flooring needs to be installed.
APPLICATION PROCEDURE
Preparation of the substrate
Substrates must comply with the specifications contained in the locally applicable standards.
Substrates must be sound and free of all traces of dust, loose or detached parts, varnish, wax, oil, rust, and
gypsum. Cement-based surfaces that are not sufficiently sound must be removed or, where possible,
consolidated with a suitable MAPEI system (such as Prosfas, Eco Prim PU 1K, or Primer MF).
Repair any cracks in the substrate with Eporip or Eporip SCR.
Treat dusty or particularly porous concrete surfaces with a suitable primer such as Primer G (diluted 1:1 with
water) or Eco Prim T Plus (diluted up to 1:4 with water) to hold the dust and even out the absorbency of the
substrate.
Anhydrite screeds may be levelled off with Ultraplan Eco only after having sanded the surface and having
applied a suitable primer (such as Primer G undiluted or Eco Prim T Plus diluted up to 1:2 with water).
Prime existing ceramic and natural stone surfaces with a coat of Eco Prim T Plus or Eco Prim Grip after
cleaning the surface with a suitable detergent and, if required, abrading the surface mechanically.
Preparation of the mix
While mixing with a low-speed mixer, pour in a container containing approximately 5.6 l of clean water a 23
kg-bag of Ultraplan Eco to obtain a homogeneous and lump-free mix. Larger quantities can be prepared in
suitable mixers.
After 2-3 minutes of rest, the mix should be re-stirred, and then it is ready for use.
It is recommended to add approximately 20-30% of quartz with a grain size of 0.4 or 0.8 mm when Ultraplan
Eco is used for thicknesses greater than 10 mm (max. 20 mm). For further information, consult MAPEI
Technical Services Department.
Make sure to prepare a quantity of Ultraplan Eco that can be applied within 20-30 minutes (at +23°C).
Spreading the mix
Apply Ultraplan Eco in a single coat from 1 to 10 mm with a large metal trowel or rake by keeping the trowel
slightly inclined to obtain the desired thickness.
Ultraplan Eco can also be applied with an automatic pressure pump for renders.
Due to its remarkable self-levelling properties, Ultraplan Eco immediately loses small imperfections (trowel
marks, etc.).
When the second coat of Ultraplan Eco is required, it is recommended to apply it as soon as the first one is set
to light foot traffic (approximately 3 hours at +23°C).
Ultraplan Eco is ready to receive ceramic coverings and natural stone coverings, as long as stable and not
sensitive to moisture, after approximately 3 hours. In the case of resilient and wood flooring, 12 hours are
needed (the time can vary, depending on the room temperature and humidity).
CLEANING
While still wet, Ultraplan Eco can be removed from tools with water.
CONSUMPTION
1.6 kg/m² per mm of thickness.
PACKAGING
Ultraplan Eco is available in 23 kg bags.
STORAGE
Ultraplan Eco stored in a dry place is stable for at least 12 months. A long storage period may extend the
setting time of Ultraplan Eco, but it does not affect its final performance.
