SUSTAINABILITY is one of Mapei’s cornerstones. As a pioneer in the world of construction, it is making a concrete contribution to building a sustainability future, creating increasingly durable products with high quality and low environmental impact. Since publishing its first Sustainability Report in 2016, it has been laying foundations to ensure a future for people and the planet.
Initially referencing only the Parent Company, its current 2022 report now encompasses a global scope – including all 57 countries in which it operates – illustrating its work to implement sustainability both environmentally and socially.

Mapei’s commitment to sustainability started with the optimization of its formulations. Over a decade ago, it launched Keraflex Maxi S1 Zero – now one of the best-selling cementitious adhesives in the world.
In 2022, it introduced the first carbon neutral system for tile installations, with its iconic Ultracolor Plus grout among the products fully offsetting CO2 emissions over their entire life cycle. Since then, Mapei’s Zero Line has grown to include surface installation, construction and maintenance products.

Mapei UK’s Zero Line*
Alongside Ultracolor Plus, Mapei UK’s Zero Line includes a variety of mortars for the building sector, as well as surface maintenance treatments and a finishing sealant from the UltraCare range. The latest products to join the Zero Line include Mapelastic Zero elastic cementitious waterproofing membrane and Keraquick S1 Zero quick-setting deformable cementitious adhesive, with further introductions to follow throughout the year.
