Coverage calculator
How much you need.
The arithmetic uses Mapei's published consumption for Mapecoat DW 25 and the pack sizes we stock. Set your own wastage allowance.

- 8.8-13.2 kg
The figures behind it.
- 400-600 g/m² in two coats, which corresponds to a final thickness of approximately 300-450 µm (2 coats of product).
- If just one coat is applied, a dry final thickness of at least 200 µm (consumption of approximately 300 g/m²) is required.
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.
