Description
Sopro ZMC 10 – M10 Thin-Bed Masonry Mortar
Sopro ZMC 10 is a high-quality, cement-based thin-bed masonry mortar (M10) designed for the construction of precise masonry using calibrated masonry units such as clay blocks. It is suitable for both interior and exterior applications and provides a strong, durable and reliable bond between masonry elements.
The thin-bed formulation allows masonry to be constructed with very thin mortar joints, helping to reduce material consumption while making the installation process faster and more efficient. With its excellent workability and reliable adhesion, Sopro ZMC 10 is particularly suitable for professional masonry construction.
Key Benefits
- M10 thin-bed masonry mortar in accordance with EN 998-2
- Reduces the formation of thermal bridges.
- Cement-based formulation
- Suitable for thin-bed masonry construction
- Suitable for interior and exterior use
- Frost-resistant for durable performance in demanding conditions
- Excellent workability and easy application
- Reliable adhesion and strong bonding
- Helps reduce mortar consumption compared with conventional masonry mortar
- Suitable for calibrated clay blocks, silicate blocks and aerated concrete blocks
- Ideal for efficient and precise masonry construction
Thin-Bed Application
Sopro ZMC 10 is designed for the construction of masonry with thin mortar joints of approximately 2–5 mm. The reduced joint thickness allows for efficient use of the mortar while helping to maintain consistent and precise masonry.
With a typical consumption of approximately 2 kg/m² at a 2 mm joint thickness, Sopro ZMC 10 provides an economical solution for modern masonry construction.
Applications
Sopro ZMC 10 can be used for constructing masonry from:
- Calibrated ceramic blocks
- Silicate blocks
- Aerated concrete and gas concrete blocks
- Other suitable calibrated masonry units, in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendations
The mortar is suitable for both new construction and masonry applications where a thin-bed mortar system is required.

Mixing
For a full bag mix add approximately 3.6 litres of clean water to the bucket then add the powder. Stir quickly and vigorously (using an agitator / paddle mixer) until a smooth, lump free consistency is produced. Allow to stand for 10 to 15 minutes and then stir again. The mixed mortar is transferred from the bucket into the special Porotherm mortar roller. Mortar is normally applied to a 5 to 6m length of horizontal joint using the mortar roller. The speed of rolling and the angle of application must be adjusted to ensure that an even mortar layer is applied evenly from the roller and covers the entire surface area of the horizontal joint.
Processing
Processing time: Protected mortar; approximately 4 hours at 20°C, but will be extended at lower ambient temperatures and reduced at higher ambient temperatures.
Processing temperature: Use only when the air temperature is at least 0°C and rising. Please be aware that internal situations may be colder than external and any wind chill factor must be taken into consideration. Do not use when blocks or existing work are frozen.
Mixing
Do not mix with water that is partially frozen or is thawing. Mixing water should always be from a mains tap that has not been frozen. In addition, early strength development will be reduced at low temperatures and therefore the blocks and mortar must be adequately protected at all times, with appropriate insulating covers prior to and after application, so that fresh masonry does not fall below 0°C. Mixing in an insulated bucket with an insulated lid is strongly recommended.
Advice
This product contains cement and produces an alkaline reaction when it comes into contact with moisture/water. Therefore, ensure that skin and eyes are protected. If it should come into contact with the skin or eyes, rinse them thoroughly with water. Seek medical assistance immediately if it comes into contact with the eyes. Contains Chromium VI, however a reducing agent ensures that the Cr VI content of the mortar remains below 2ppm during the shelf life of the product. It may produce an allergic reaction.
