Use Case | Concrete | Screed |
---|---|---|
✔ Driveways & Outdoor Surfaces | ✅ Best choice for driveways due to its high strength and durability. ✅ Can handle vehicle weight and extreme weather. |
❌ Not suitable for driveways—too thin and lacks the strength to support vehicles. |
✔ Subfloors for Tiling, Wood, or Resin | ✅ Can be used as a subfloor, but may require a screed layer for a smoother finish. | ✅ Ideal for subfloors—provides a smooth, even surface for tiling, wood, or resin flooring. |
✔ Underfloor Heating | ✅ Works well, but takes longer to heat up due to higher thickness. ✅ Holds heat for longer once warm. |
✅ Better for underfloor heating—thinner profile allows for faster heat transfer. |
✔ Polished Flooring | ✅ Best choice for polished floors—can be ground down and finished for a high-gloss look. | ❌ Cannot be polished effectively—too soft and prone to damage. |
✔ Commercial & Industrial Spaces | ✅ Used for warehouses, factories, and high-traffic areas due to its durability. | ❌ Not durable enough for heavy-duty commercial applications. |
✔ Interior Home Flooring | ✅ Can be used but requires sealing and finishing to avoid dust and wear. | ✅ Ideal for interior flooring when covered with tiles, carpet, or resin. |
✔ Fast Installation & Drying | ❌ Takes longer to dry—can take weeks to fully cure. | ✅ Screed dries faster—can be walked on in 24-48 hours. |
