The First Express Cement Floor in Europe
ATLAS POSTAR 80: Speed, Durability, Versatility
The ATLAS POSTAR line of products was the first in Europe to receive a European Technical Assessment (ETA) document, allowing indoor and outdoor application.
The rapid setting cement floor from this product family, ATLAS POSTAR 80, is an excellent choice for those who need to create durable substrates quickly and effectively.
The following are its main advantages, focusing on the express drying time, high durability and versatility of ATLAS POSTAR 80.
Key advantages of ATLAS POSTAR 80:
- Express drying time: As early as 3 hours after application (in layers of 10-80 mm), you can step on the substrate and fix the tiles. It’s an excellent solution for renovation work where time is crucial.
- Compressive strength: With a compressive strength of up to 40 MPa and high abrasion resistance (class A9), the product can be successfully used not only in residential housing, but also in warehouses, industrial facilities and on driveways and terraces.
- Versatility of application: ATLAS POSTAR 80 can be used as a substrate for various top finishing layers (tiles, parquet, epoxy floors). Since it conducts heat well, it is also suitable for use as a screed with heating system. Allows to form a slopes and repairs of concrete surfaces, stairs, slabs, floors.
Comparison with other products in the group:
ATLAS POSTAR 80 is distinguished by its fast drying time, high durability and versatility compared to other cement floors on the market.

Types of possible arrangements:
- Bonded to substrate – thickness 10-80 mm – good quality substrate: concrete, cement screed (with or without underfloor heating).
- On a separating layer – 35-80 mm thick – when the substrate is of poor quality and does not provide adequate adhesion – dusty, cracked, oily, dirty, highly absorbent; the separating layer can be e.g. 0.2 mm thick PE film.
- Floating – 40-80 mm thick – laid on thermal or sound insulation made of: polystyrene boards of suitable hardness, underfloor, hardened mineral wool panels, etc.
- Heating – the thickness over the heating installation should be at least 35 mm.
