Craftsman Concrete Floors is a Sika Installer for Sika urethane cement, covering both Sika product families — Ucrete and Sikafloor PurCem — under one credential, installed nationwide. The systems Craftsman specifies and installs today are Sika Ucrete UD 200 and UD 200 SR, the heavy-duty screeds for wet and dry process areas; Sika Ucrete SL and SL+, the self-leveling slurries for general industrial and aggressive environments; and Sika Ucrete MF, the smooth screed for dry-process areas. Each current system has its own spec page carrying the manufacturer data sheet, service temperature by thickness, and full technical detail.
Sika acquired the MBCC Group construction systems business on May 2, 2023, bringing Ucrete — the urethane cement line originated by Master Builders and later sold as BASF Ucrete — into the Sika portfolio. In North America, Sika now carries its full urethane cement line under the Sika Ucrete brand; Sikafloor PurCem is the earlier North American name for that same line. A specification written as “BASF Ucrete,” “MBCC Ucrete,” or “Sikafloor PurCem” installs as the current Sika Ucrete equivalent, all under Sika North American brand.
Current Sika Ucrete Systems Craftsman Installs
These are the Sika urethane cement systems in active specification today, each with a dedicated product page carrying the manufacturer data sheet and thickness-banded specs. Selection runs on duty, finish, and environment — screed versus self-leveling slurry, smooth versus slip-resistant, dry versus wet or freezer service.
Ucrete UD 200 and UD 200 SR — Heavy-Duty Screeds
Sika Ucrete UD 200 is the heavy-duty wearing-layer screed for wet and dry process areas, with service temperature set by installed thickness — freezer service to -40°F at 3/8 inch, up to 302°F occasional spillage at 1/2 inch. Sika Ucrete UD 200 SR is the slip-resistant version of the same chemistry, specified where wet, greasy, or washdown floors make slip-fall the governing concern. Full specs, coverage, and the Sika data sheet are on the Ucrete UD 200 and Ucrete UD 200 SR pages.
Ucrete SL and SL+ — Self-Leveling Slurries
Sika Ucrete SL is a self-leveling polyurethane cement slurry at 80 to 160 mils for general industrial floors — warehouses, production facilities, laboratories, and workshops — and meets USDA requirements for use in food plants. Sika Ucrete SL+ is the heavier-duty slurry at 160 to 250 mils for aggressive environments, freezers and coolers, food processing, dairies, breweries, and distilleries. Both hold a -40°F to 248°F range. The system data sheets are on the Ucrete SL and Ucrete SL+ pages.
Ucrete MF — Smooth Dry-Process Screed
Sika Ucrete MF is a smooth, heavy-duty screed for dry-process areas — clean rooms, dry packing lines, storage, and warehouses — where a flat, easy-to-clean surface matters more than the aggressive slip resistance a wet washdown floor needs. Specs and the data sheet are on the Ucrete MF page.

Brand and Naming Transitions — What Changed for Your Spec
Active construction documents still reference BASF Ucrete, MBCC Ucrete, MasterTop, and Sikafloor PurCem. Here is what each transition means for a specification and a warranty.
The May 2023 Acquisition — Ucrete Is Now Made by Sika
The May 2, 2023 MBCC acquisition moved Ucrete and MasterTop into Sika ownership alongside the existing Sikafloor PurCem line, without changing a single product code — Ucrete UD 200 is still UD 200, and only the manufacturer name on the data sheet shifted to Sika. A spec written as “BASF Ucrete UD 200” or “MBCC Ucrete” installs as the same product, and pre-acquisition manufacturer warranty obligations carried forward to Sika. New installations receive current Sika warranty coverage when installed under the Sika Installer credential.
“Master Builders Solutions” Is Admixtures Only — Not Flooring
EU regulators required Sika to divest the concrete admixtures business as a condition of the acquisition; it was sold to Cinven and now trades as “Master Builders Solutions.” That entity covers admixtures only — the Ucrete and MasterTop flooring brands stayed with Sika. A flooring specification still written under “Master Builders Solutions” or “MBCC” should reference Sika as the current manufacturer; an admixtures document under that name is unaffected by the flooring brand transition.
Sikafloor PurCem and Sika Ucrete — the North American Naming
In North America, Sika has consolidated its urethane cement under the Sika Ucrete brand; the Sikafloor PurCem name in older North American specs refers to the same cementitious urethane chemistry. The products map directly: Sikafloor-22 NA PurCem corresponds to Sika Ucrete HS22 NA, the slurry behind Ucrete SL+, and the PurCem topcoat carries over to Sika Ucrete TC31 NA. A specification that calls out Sikafloor PurCem or a Sikafloor-NA PurCem SKU installs as its current Sika Ucrete counterpart. PurCem-named units still appear in distribution, so Craftsman cross-references the PurCem SKU to the current Ucrete product during pre-bid review.
Where Sika Urethane Cement Installs
Sika urethane cement — Ucrete and Sikafloor PurCem — specifies into the commercial and industrial verticals where chemical exposure, thermal cycling, and washdown exceed what epoxy or tile tolerate. Product and thickness are selected per vertical; the vertical pages carry the detail.
Food, Beverage, Dairy, and Meat
Food processing, beverage production, and dairy and meat processing floors run Sika Ucrete SL or the heavier-duty UD 200 depending on mechanical load, with a seamless monolithic surface and integral cove base for the USDA, FDA, HACCP, SQF, and GFSI documentation procurement expects at closeout. Commercial kitchens take the slip-resistant spec for wet, greasy floors.
Cold Storage, Pharmaceutical, and Chemical
Cold storage and freezer floors use the thickness that carries -40°F service, and pharmaceutical production runs PurCem or Ucrete with cGMP closeout documentation. Across the portfolio, service temperature, chemical resistance, and slip configuration are matched to the environment — the exact range is set by product and installed thickness, which each product page specifies.

Frequently Asked Questions
Match the system to the floor’s environment and finish. Ucrete UD 200 is the heavy-duty screed for wet and dry process areas; UD 200 SR is the slip-resistant version for wet and greasy floors. Ucrete SL is a self-leveling slurry for general industrial floors, and SL+ is the heavier slurry for freezers and aggressive process areas. Ucrete MF is the smooth screed for dry-process areas. Each product page carries the data sheet and thickness-banded specs.
Standard Sikafloor PurCem and Ucrete systems install at $8-15 per square foot, depending on system thickness, vertical, and substrate condition. Where a project lands in that range is set by size, thickness, and substrate prep — the installation cost page carries the size-tier breakdown.
In North America they are the same line under different names. Sikafloor PurCem is Sika’s earlier North American name for its urethane cement; Sika now carries the line under the Sika Ucrete brand. The chemistry is identical — a monolithic cementitious-urethane mortar bonded chemically to the concrete, not a film laid on top — and Sikafloor-22 NA PurCem maps to Sika Ucrete HS22 NA. A spec written for PurCem installs as the current Sika Ucrete equivalent.
Sikafloor-22 NA PurCem is the earlier North American name for the self-leveling slurry now carried as Sika Ucrete HS22 NA, and PurCem-named units still appear in distribution. It is a 3/16-inch to 1/4-inch self-leveling system specified into food and beverage processing, commercial kitchens, dairy, brewery, and pharmaceutical documents, where the monolithic surface supports the USDA, FDA, HACCP, and cGMP closeout documentation those verticals require. A spec calling out Sikafloor-22 NA PurCem installs as the current Sika Ucrete equivalent.
Sika acquired the MBCC Group construction systems business on May 2, 2023, bringing Ucrete — the legacy BASF and Master Builders urethane cement line — into Sika ownership. Ucrete continues under its existing product codes, and a specification written as “BASF Ucrete” or “MBCC Ucrete” installs as the same product now manufactured by Sika. Pre-acquisition warranty obligations transferred to Sika under the acquisition terms.
No. Master Builders Solutions is the divested concrete admixtures business now owned by Cinven; it covers admixtures only, not flooring. The Ucrete and MasterTop flooring brands stayed with Sika. A flooring document referencing Master Builders Solutions should be updated to current Sika branding; an admixtures document under that name is unaffected.
Lead time is 1-3 weeks from contract execution, driven by material availability. Installation is phased zone-by-zone around facility operations, with self-leveling Sikafloor PurCem and Sika Ucrete SL systems returning to foot traffic within 24 hours; trowel-applied screeds take longer. Night and weekend phasing is available at fixed project pricing.
Nationwide. In-house W-2 crews mobilize nationwide, with estimating and scheduling coordinated from Craftsman’s Dallas headquarters. Craftsman has been installing urethane cement since 1999 and is a Sika Installer covering Sikafloor PurCem and Ucrete installation.
