The materials contained within Easy Screed are very different to those of traditional concrete/sand and cement screeds. The unique binder materials used, are high-strength, allowing for a thinner floor screed, and flowing, resulting in a smooth and flat floor finish. Traditional screeds are generally bulked up to 75mm, and may require the addition of fibres, to try and prevent standard problems of cracking and shrinkage. Such problems are not encountered with Easy Screed, even pouring at 35mm.
