Cement mortar is a construction mix made from water, cement, special additives, and sand. It is known for its plasticity, versatility, affordability, and strength. However, once hardened, pure cement becomes quite brittle, which is why it is rarely used on its own. Cement mortars are used in nearly all construction processes involving wall erection, base leveling (screeds), and the filling of cracks, uneven areas, or other surface defects.
Depending on its application, several types of cement construction mortars are distinguished:
Dry Cement-Sand Mix (CSM) – a dry blend consisting of two active components, typically cement and sand in a specific ratio. This simple and reliable solution is most commonly used for laying paving tiles and performing various outdoor finishing works.
Masonry Mortar (MM) – composed of three main ingredients: filler (typically mountain sand), cement, and water. The mix’s workability (P8) for masonry depends on the proportions of each component. This type of mortar is suitable for laying all types of bricks. When constructing walls or buildings from brick, the mortar plays a critical role, as it helps distribute the load from the overall weight of the structure.
General-Purpose Cement Mortar (CM) – a repair and construction mix made from sand, cement, and water in specific proportions. The final product’s workability and strength depend entirely on the cement grade and mixing ratio. Based on your intended application, VIMALSPETSBUD’s managers will gladly advise you on which type of mortar is best to purchase.

In some cases, customers may confuse concrete with cement mortar. The key difference between these two materials lies in the presence of coarse aggregate—concrete contains crushed stone, for example—and is used as a primary structural material in construction, particularly as the main component for pouring building foundations. Therefore, if you are looking for a cement-based mix for a foundation, you will most likely need concrete or cement mortar with coarse aggregate.
Cement mortar is often mixed manually directly on the construction site. However, in the case of large-scale construction, floor leveling, or screed applications, it is far more practical to use factory-prepared cement mortar. At VIMALSPETSBUD, the mix is produced directly at our plant, ensuring the right quality and consistency for the required mortar grade.
