The figures behind it.
- The normal dosage of Mapefibre NS 12 is 600 g/m³, usually added to the concrete.
Consumption on site depends on the substrate, the tool and the applicator, which is why wastage is yours to set. The result is a quantity to plan and quote with, not a guarantee of coverage. Confirm the system against the current Mapei technical data sheet before ordering.
