Standard for Sanded Cementitious Grout for Wide Joint Applications in General Areas
TIS 2892-2563 (2020) Sanded Standard Cement Grout Type is a standard for cementitious grout containing sand to enhance strength and support wider grout joints than unsanded cementitious grout. It helps reduce the risk of cracking and shrinkage after curing, making it suitable for terracotta tiles and other tile types with wide grout joints in residential and indoor applications, such as living room walls, family rooms, and other general areas within the home.
Products certified under this standard must pass both general characteristic and physical property tests in accordance with the requirements of the Thai Industrial Standards Institute (TISI). These include shrinkage, water absorption, compressive strength, tensile strength, and flexural strength. Such testing ensures consistent product quality, reliable performance, and compliance with established industrial standards.
Tile grouts that comply with TIS 2892-2563 (2020) Standard Sanded Cement Grout Type serve as an assurance of product quality and reliability for general tile grouting applications with wider joint widths. An example is Crocodile Gold Grout, which is suitable for grout joints ranging from 5-15 mm. To achieve optimum performance, durability, and long-lasting aesthetics, users should select grout products that are appropriate for the joint width, tile type, and installation area.
