Beal is the only manufacturer of the MORTEX® range of products and has registered the name. We advise you to beware of imitations and counterfeits, as they do not meet the same quality requirements.

Key words: Mortex, Beal international, manufacturer, distributor, quality
22. Is a private individual able to make his own Bealstone?
Regarding the application itself, a private individual could do his own BEALSTONE on small surfaces. However, in practice, for larger areas, it is not always feasible. BEALSTONE requires indeed special and very expensive tools (rotary sander with diamond disks) that quite often only professionals possess.

Key words: Mortex, price, cost
26. What is the difference between a slab, a screed or stabilized soil?
Slab: (wet mix) is armed and is used to stabilize the building. The look is raw and in general unpolished. Cement load: 350 kg/m³
Screed: (Wet mix) is lower in cement, 250 kg/m³, no aggregates but only sand and cement.
Stabilized soil: (dry mix) is even poorer in cement, is rather used, for instance, for paved floors, because it crumbles. Forbidden for MORTEX.
27. MX04 – Is it possible to keep a rest of the MORTEX® product?
If the products are kept in their original, well-sealed packaging and according to the storage conditions recommended in the technical data sheets, you can re-use them for another job.
This is why BEAL sells neutral, uncoloured products.
Key words: Mortex, Bealcryl, rests, storage
29. MX05 – Is it possible to use other products than those in the MORTEX® coating range?
We can never guarantee products foreign to our brand for the simple and good reason that we do not control their manufacturing process.
Incompatibilities may arise directly during mixing, during application and long after application.
Key words: Mortex, compatibility, competition, brands
30. Should Mortex be protected?
Mortex behaves as a natural stone (waterproof but micro-poreous on its surface). Therefore, a protection against stains (wine, grease…) is recommended indoor: varnish, oil, etc. In all cases, we recommend tests and samples beforehand to validate the appropriate protection.
