Nexus Professional Surfacing Systems: resin jointing for paving and driveways

Nexus Professional Surfacing Systems is a specialist supplier of innovative products for the paving, landscaping and driveway industries. Its catalogue is distributed through a network of over 500 builders' and stone merchants across the UK, and includes resin jointing systems, sealers and cleaners for different types of paving.

ProJoint jointing systems

The company's main range is ProJoint resin jointing systems, designed to fill joints between paving slabs and setts. Featured products include TITAN, presented as the professionals' choice for filling joints between paving slabs and setts; RapidFlow, a brush-in porcelain paving grout for use all year round, also suitable for natural stone; Fusion, a quick and easy solution for filling joints whatever the weather; and V400-WT, used to recreate a traditional pitch pointing effect. The range is completed by TileJam, PolySweep and V35-UV, the latter selected for sawn tallow paving.

According to the company, the advantages of its resin jointing systems include speed of application, which reduces labour time; ease of use, as brush-in and slurry products require no kneeling or bending; high strength, with epoxy resins suitable for medium and heavy traffic loads; frost resistance and resistance to extreme changes in temperature; and the possibility of application on damp paving, so that rain before application is not a problem. The different products cover application temperature ranges from 3°C to 35°C and, according to the company, do not develop cracks like sand and cement mortar due to drying out too quickly in the sun. The firm also states that epoxy products are designed to outlast traditional mortar and are resistant to de-icing salt, pressure washers and sweepers.

Primers, cleaners and sealers

The catalogue includes specialist primers such as Porcelain Primer and Contract SBR. For cleaning it offers Black Spot & Algae Remover, Ultimate Paving Cleaner, Porcelain Ultimate Cleaner and Eliminator. The sealers section comprises Pre-Grout Sealer, PRO-820ECO Invisible Sealer (waterbased), PRO-420ECO Enhancing Sealer (waterbased), PRO-810 Invisible Sealer (solvent based), PRO-410 Enhancing Sealer (solvent based) and Black Limestone Restorer. It also markets tools and accessories such as paving and tile markers, TileVice and squeegee and brush heads.

ProJoint V75-WT was used in an RHS award-winning garden at Tatton Park; ProJoint V35-UV was selected for sawn tallow paving; more than 60 kits of ProJoint V400-WT were used in a stone labyrinth; and ProJoint Titan was used on a driveway with thousands of imported antique French cobbles.
