Vario Pro
Vario PRO is the fast and easy way to create a warm, comfortable floor that’s protected from tile delamination and cracks.
Vario PRO is the professional combined underfloor heating and uncoupling solution for tiled floors. The fast track installation is quick and easy and creates a floor built to last.
Why do I need an uncoupling layer?
The problem:
All floors, especially new ones, expand and contract with changes in the temperature of the building.
Typically, a floor tile will expand and contract at a different rate to the tile adhesive and sub floor below, resulting in cracked tiles and delamination (tiles coming away from the floor).
The solution:
Introducing a layer of Vario PRO uncoupling membrane helps to prevent cracks and delamination by neutralising the stress between the tiled surface and the sub floor. Vario PRO cannot prevent damage from sheer movement.
Underfloor Heating
Vario ProMat is designed to make it easy to install electric underfloor heating and an uncoupling membrane with one fast track solution.
Uncoupling layer
Vario ProMat neutralises the stress caused by different rates of expansion and contraction in a tiled floor. This minimises the risk of tile delamination and cracking.
Superior vapour management
The studs in the Vario ProMat allow water vapour to escape effectively. This means you can save more time by tiling over a substrate that is not fully cured.
Easy waterproofing
Vario ProMat is totally waterproof, and by using Vario PRO sealing tape on edges and penetrations you can create a wetroom quickly and easily.
Efficient load distribution
Heavy loads are no problem for floors that include a layer of Vario PRO. The stud structure transfers the load to the sub floor eliminating the risk of cracks.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is an uncoupling membrane?
An uncoupling membrane that goes between the tiles and the substrate and reduces the stress between the two layers.
Why do I need an uncoupling layer?
All floor especially new ones expand and contract with the changes in temperature. A typical floor tile will expand and contract at a different rate to the substrate which results in cracked tiles and delamination. The uncoupling layer neutralises the stress between the substrate and the tiles and helps to prevent cracks and delamination.
