ZEN KAL – TADELAKT-STYLE MICROCEMENT

We travel 2,000 years back in time with our new microcement line, Zen Kal, inspired by the ancient Moroccan Tadelakt plastering technique. With a finish that echoes its origins but features superior properties, our microcement creates spaces with a distinct aesthetic, luxurious elegance, and pure natural beauty.

At Zen, we have taken a step further: we have preserved the original artistic beauty of Tadelakt while improving the formula to create a material with higher chemical and mechanical durability, ease of application, and a reduced environmental impact. All these qualities are encapsulated in an ultra-thin 3 mm layer, allowing for versatile application on both floors and walls.

This Tadelakt microcement line possesses infinite decorative potential. Creativity will be your greatest companion in transforming ordinary spaces into environments that breathe a mystical aura, shining with their own unique identity.

ZEN KAL XL – VERSATILE COARSE-GRAIN TADELAKT MICROCEMENT

Introducing Zen Kal XL, a new generation versatile microcement that can be used flexibly as a preparation layer (base coat) or as a finishing surface.

This two-component lime-based mortar allows for free application on both floors and walls, for both indoor and outdoor spaces.

This is made possible by the superior hardness of this microcement; we have developed a durable material with unique resistance, capable of withstanding all environmental impacts.

This is the largest grain size in the Zen Kal system. This characteristic makes it ideal as a base material, while it can simultaneously be used as a final coating to create an impressive, rustic effect.

The product is packaged in 20 kg buckets.

ZEN KAL L – VERSATILE FINE-GRAIN TADELAKT MICROCEMENT

The Zen Kal L line is another option within the Tadelakt microcement system, suitable for use as either a base coat or a finishing layer. The key difference lies in the grain size: this product features a finer grain, allowing for the creation of surfaces with a more natural and solid appearance, while maintaining the same level of durability.

Similar to the XL line, this is a two-component lime-based mortar that can be flexibly applied to interior and exterior surfaces, including floors, walls, and ceilings.

Using Zen Kal L microcement helps achieve higher surface stability. This is the core objective of this product line, as it is primarily designed as a preparation layer (base coat), yet it can still be used as a final coating to create sophisticated, rustic effects.

BENEFITS OF USING OUR TADELAKT MICROCEMENT COATING

The uniqueness of the Zen Kal microcement line offers a material of high artistic value, enabling applicators to create magnificent spaces with distinct identities. It is a standout material from every angle, representing the perfect intersection of art and surface coating. It is this fusion of artistic aesthetics and functional utility that makes this microcement line an unrivaled product in the market.

1

EXCELLENT ADHESION

The ultra-high adhesion capacity allows this material to adapt to any type of surface. It can be applied in both interior and exterior areas, on vertical surfaces (walls) or horizontal ones (floors). Notably, it can be applied directly over existing materials without the need for demolition, including drywall (pladur), cement, plaster, ceramic tiles, clay tiles, metal, concrete, etc.

2

"WET-ON-WET" APPLICATION TECHNIQUE

This is one of the most unique and outstanding features. The “wet-on-wet” technique allows for the creation of distinct decorative effects. You can apply the third layer of microcement as soon as the second layer is dry to the touch (tack-free).

3

SEAMLESS, JOINT-FREE SURFACES

Creates open and infinite spaces thanks to a surface without grout lines. The long-term durability helps prevent the formation of cracks or material shrinkage.

4

DURABILITY BEYOND INDUSTRY STANDARDS

Despite its artistic appearance resembling traditional Tadelakt, the physical and mechanical properties of Zen Kal are significantly superior. This coating is resistant to compression, abrasion, and heavy foot traffic, while also being impact-resistant, scratch-resistant, and capable of withstanding temperature fluctuations and UV rays.

5

UNLIMITED DECORATIVE POSSIBILITIES

With an extensive color palette and flexibility in finishing techniques, craftsmen can create various textures, effects, and surface finishes tailored to any design intent.

6

ECO-FRIENDLY MATERIAL

Our advanced formula, based on natural lime, allows us to provide a more sustainable coating material, minimizing negative environmental impacts.
