-BEKOTEC is a modular screed system that produces permanent flooring assemblies that are free from internal
stresses. The BEKOTEC system is based on a studded polystyrene screed panel. The studs confine curing stresses
to small modules, which eliminates curling and allows the installation of continuous screed surfaces without any wire
reinforcement or control joints. BEKOTEC is ideal for hydronic radiant heating applications, as it provides thermal insulation,
allows for hydronic radiant tube application without fasteners, and reduces thermal mass to produce a responsive system
that can operate at a low temperature range. The BEKOTEC system can also be used in conjunction with common sound
insulation materials to produce a flooring system with excellent sound attenuation properties.
Modular Screed for
Radiant Heated Floors
BEKOTEC
family of products are lightweight modular screed systems that are used to
create continuous screed surfaces without control joints or reinforcement and
can also accommodate hydronic radiant heating tubes. For use with ceramic
tile, natural stone, or other surface coverings.
