Kerabond T by Mapei is a cement-based tile adhesive designed for installing ceramic, porcelain, and natural stone tiles on walls and floors. Applied as a thin-set mortar, the adhesive offers reduced slip performance, helping to secure tiles on vertical surfaces during installation. It is suitable for use on a range of mineral substrates including concrete, cement screeds, and plaster, and can be combined with latex additives to enhance flexibility and bonding performance in demanding conditions.

These characteristics allow the adhesive to support low-emission material specifications and contribute to indoor environmental quality targets within green building frameworks.
