Eagan, Minn.
SPEC MIX Setting Bed Mortars are pre-blended products specifically engineered for constructing horizontal surfaces using natural and manufactured pavers. The Standard Setting Bed Mortar is designed for dry-pack application projects, whereas the Polymer Modified Setting Bed Mortar is precisely formulated with a proprietary blend of polymers and performance enhancing admixtures. This allows it to be used as a thick, fortified setting bed material or as polymer modified dry-pack mortar. Now stone masons have high-quality, consistent paver bedding materials that increase daily productivity and long-term durability, every time.
