When choosing a two-component RTV-2 silicone for casting architectural decor, manufacturers often face a dilemma: choose a cost-effective condensation system (tin-cure) or a high-performance addition system (platinum-cure)?
This is the traditional, reliable choice for most workshops producing gypsum stone.
Advantages: Cost-effective and forgiving to work with in standard workshop environments.
Characteristics: Exhibits minor shrinkage over time (approx. 0.2–0.5%), with a mold lifespan of several hundred pours when using proper release agents.
The professional choice for industrial factories producing millions of square meters of facade tiles.
Advantages: Virtually zero shrinkage (<0.1%), high chemical resistance to aggressive concrete and polymer mixes, and a mold lifespan that is 2–3 times longer.
Application: Ideal if your facility specializes in heavy cement-based pavers and architectural facade stones.
