Keracolor FF by Mapei is a polymer-modified, cement-based grout designed for filling tile joints in ceramic, porcelain, and natural stone installations on walls and floors. Suitable for joints up to approximately 6 millimetres wide, the grout provides a smooth, durable finish with good colour consistency and resistance to shrinkage during curing. It can be used in both interior and exterior applications and forms part of Mapei’s tile installation systems alongside compatible adhesives and additives.

From an environmental perspective, Keracolor FF is supported by an Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) based on life-cycle assessment and is classified as a very low VOC-emitting product under EMICODE EC1 Plus. These characteristics allow the grout to support low-emission material specifications and contribute to indoor environmental quality targets within green building frameworks.
