What is Bostik Concentrated Mortar Plasticiser?
Bostik Concentrated Mortar Plasticiser is a high-performance additive designed to make your mortar easier to work with and more durable.
Made from natural materials and completely free of harmful chlorides, it enhances the flexibility (plasticity) of mortar, helping it spread and bond more smoothly.
This concentrated formula also helps reduce the amount of water needed in your mix and provides added resistance against frost damage once set, making it ideal for use in colder conditions or environments prone to freeze-thaw cycles.
The built-in measuring chamber allows for clean, precise dosing, ensuring consistent results and eliminating guesswork. Bostik Concentrated Mortar Plasticiser meets the requirements of EN 934-3, the European standard for admixtures, guaranteeing professional-grade quality and reliability on every job.

How delivery works
We work with a nationwide network of trusted suppliers. Items in your basket may be supplied by different suppliers and delivered separately. Where this applies, you will see delivery charges shown at checkout for each part of your order. We always aim to group products from the same supplier to keep delivery costs as low as possible.

Delivery charges apply to mainland UK, excluding: AB, CA, CF, DD, DG, EH, EX, FK, KA, KW, KY, IV, LA, LD, LL, ML, NP, PA, PH, PL, SA, SY, TR, TQ and TD.

What to expect on delivery day
- Deliveries are typically kerbside.
- Please ensure someone is on-site to accept delivery. For heavier items, help with offloading may be required.
- Many building materials arrive on large vehicles. If access is restricted, a specialist vehicle such as a HIAB may be required and could incur an additional charge.
Why delivery can cost more than typical parcel delivery
Building materials often travel on larger vehicles and usually carry fewer drops per run than parcel networks. That is why delivery charges can be higher than standard e-commerce shipping.
Returns
Returns depend on what you have bought and whether there is anything wrong with it. For full details on eligibility, timeframes, and exclusions, please see our full policy.
