Acriflex Primer is a water-based impregnating primer for asbestos-cement surfaces. One coat soaks in and binds the fibres to prevent them from becoming airborne, which is the required first step before encapsulating a roof or wall with Acriflex Pro or Acriflex Rapido. Roller or airless, 0.10–0.15 kg/m², dry in about an hour. Encapsulation work must follow current regulations.

Key Features

  • Pull-off above 0.8 N/mm²
  • Single coat by airless or roller
  • Dry in about 1 hour
  • Runs under Acriflex Pro and Rapido systems

    Frequently Asked Questions

    What is Acriflex Primer used for?
    It's a water-based primer designed to seal and stabilize asbestos-cement surfaces, preventing fiber dispersion during encapsulation or removal.

    Can it be used alone?
    Yes — Acriflex Primer can be used alone for certain asbestos encapsulation applications, specifically:

    • Type D – Auxiliary: When the asbestos-cement surface does not require full waterproofing but still needs fiber stabilization and protection.

    For Type A, B, and C interventions (visible outside, visible inside, or not visible), Acriflex Primer should be followed by Acriflex Pro or Acriflex Rapido for full waterproofing and long-term protection.

    Do I need it for asbestos encapsulation?
    Yes — it’s essential for safely sealing asbestos fibers before applying the waterproofing membrane.

    Is it breathable?
    Yes — it’s vapor-permeable, making it suitable for use in moisture-sensitive environments.

    How is it applied?
    By brush, roller, or spray gun. One coat is typically sufficient.

    Is it safe for workers?
    Yes — it’s solvent-free and low-VOC, reducing health risks during application.
