Febmix Admix Original SW

Febmix Admix Original SW is an air-entraining mortar plasticiser designed to replace lime in the mix, producing a smooth, “butter-like” consistency that is easy to work with. It improves the overall quality of mortar while helping to prevent common issues such as shrinkage, cracking, and crazing during the setting process. This specially formulated South West (SW) version is designed for use in South Wales and the West Country, where local conditions require enhanced performance.

Usage & Performance

Febmix Admix Original SW is suitable for use in both bricklaying and plastering mortars. It improves cohesion, reduces bleed and segregation, and helps deliver a more consistent mix on site. The product also helps to reduce efflorescence, improving the appearance of finished masonry. Once set, it provides a degree of frost resistance and long-term protection against freeze-thaw cycles, making it well suited to exposed environments.

Key Advantages

By reducing shrinkage and improving workability, Febmix Admix Original SW produces stronger, more durable mortar with a superior finish. Its air-entraining properties help enhance long-term performance while making mortar easier to mix, spread, and lay. The SW-specific formulation ensures reliable results in regional conditions commonly found in South Wales and the South West of England.

Packaging & Size

Febmix Admix Original SW is available in 5 litre and 25 litre containers, suitable for both small-scale and larger construction projects.

Roof Tiles & Fittings:

We recommend ordering an additional 10% of roof tiles to allow for any breakages that may occur during delivery or handling. Roof tiles are naturally fragile, and having a few extra on site helps prevent delays and ensures your roofing project can be completed without interruption.
