Hydroxypropyl Methyl Cellulose (HPMC) has been widely used in various building materials.

Tile adhesive

Hydroxypropyl Methyl Cellulose (HPMC) provides water retention and workability to tile adhesive and grouts. It also improves adhesion, reduce skinning, and increase open time.

Gypsum-based plasters

Hydroxypropyl Methyl Cellulose (HPMC) imparts workability, and consistency to gypsum-based and cement-based plasters. It also provide water retention and sag resistance.

Cement-based plasters

Hydroxypropyl Methyl Cellulose (HPMC) provides water retention  to cement-based plasters, improves workability.

Masonry mortars

Hydroxypropyl Methyl Cellulose (HPMC) extends board life and improve workability.

EIFS/ETICS

Hydroxypropyl Methyl Cellulose (HPMC) provides excellent workability and long working time.

Our Hydroxypropyl Methyl Cellulose(HPMC) has efficient thickening and excellent water retention ability.
