Hacker Cement Underlayments Ideal for Rehab Jobs

At the Feb. 7-10 International Builders’ Show in Orlando, Hacker Industries, Inc. (Booth W3293), the company that has supplied more than one billion square feet of gypsum floor underlayments, will be introducing a new series of premium self-leveling floor underlayments.

The two new products provide optimum compressive strength, smooth surfaces and reliable performance, and they are ideal for resurfacing concrete floors with minimal labor and installation time in commercial, institutional and residential applications:

  • TRUE-SCREED® CLU is a Portland cement-based underlayment specially engineered for projects with deep-fill requirements that need to stay on budget. The product provides a cost-effective method to transform cracked, uneven concrete floors into a smooth, strong surface for finished floor coverings. It also offers an exceptionally hard surface and dries quickly, keeping construction projects on schedule.

  • DYNA-SCREED® SLU applies new engineered cement technology for thin-capping concrete on fast-track renovation projects with demanding schedules. The product is high-strength, resists abrasion, sets quickly, and can be barrel mixed for small jobs or pumped in place for larger projects, providing a faster, more consistent installation. It is able to accept light construction traffic and most floor coverings within 24 hours of installation.


Kerry Hacker, vice president of Hacker Industries, Inc., noted that both products are designed to meet a wide range of demand specifications in renovation and rehab projects.

Hacker Industries, Inc. also manufactures FIRM-FILL Gypsum Concretes and GYP-SPAN Radiant, which are recognized for their inherent sound abatement and fire-resistant properties.

The new self-leveling underlayments, and all Hacker floor underlayments, are installed by certified, licensed applicators of Hacker Industries, Inc. to ensure product consistency and maintain quality control.
