Gerflor DryTex System: Advanced Moisture Resistant Flooring

For more than 15 years, DryTex has been trusted by athletes and facility managers at the highest levels of sport. Its system delivers consistent, reliable performance in demanding environments worldwide.

F.A.N.G.S. – The Five Benefits That Set DryTex Apart

Excess moisture in concrete slabs is one of the most common reasons flooring projects fail. It can delay installations, damage floors, and cause long-term mold issues. DryTex solves these problems with F.A.N.G.S.:

Full spread 100% moisture solution that doesn’t just cover the issue but eliminates it with built-in protection.
Affordable high-moisture performance at only about a $1.00/sf premium, with no added installation steps.
No moisture test required, removing delays, disputes, and extra costs tied to slab testing.
Guaranteed by Gerflor: no product defects, no moisture failures, and no mold under the floor.
Same slab requirements as standard adhesives, with no extra labor or changes in installation process.

What Makes DryTex Different

The strength of DryTex lies in its system. It is not just one element but the way Gerflor’s GERPUR® adhesive, high-density foam, and textile backing function together as a unified solution. Traditional flooring often comes with added steps such as moisture barriers, pH testing, and long delays before installation can even begin. DryTex eliminates those hurdles.

The textile backing bonds directly with Gerflor’s high-density foam layer to create a stable surface for adhesion. When paired with GERPUR®, a moisture-cured adhesive, the system delivers a true dry flooring installation. Flooring can be installed as soon as 28 days after a slab is poured, without moisture or pH testing.

This system-level innovation addresses moisture issues at the source. It saves valuable time, reduces installation costs, and removes the risks of failed flooring projects. With DryTex, facilities get a complete, proven system engineered to perform in even the toughest environments.

Superior Moisture Tolerance

Moisture resistance is where DryTex truly stands out. The system is engineered to handle up to 100 percent relative humidity (100% RH) and 25 pounds of Moisture Vapor Emissions Rate (MVER). Compared to other installation methods, this tolerance is unmatched in the industry. Facilities that specify DryTex can install sooner, avoid costly delays, and be confident their floors will perform even in high-moisture conditions.

Benefits of Moisture Resistant Flooring with DryTex

The DryTex system delivers a wide range of benefits that set it apart from other sports flooring options.

Time Savings – One of the most valuable advantages is faster project completion. Contractors and facility managers no longer need to wait months for a slab to fully dry or spend extra time on testing. This allows spaces to be put to use much sooner, reducing downtime and maximizing return on investment.

Cost Efficiency – By removing the need for moisture barriers and additional remediation, DryTex lowers upfront costs. It also provides long-term savings by preventing moisture-related damage such as warping, bubbling, or adhesive breakdown.

Durability and Reliability – Once installed, DryTex flooring is built to last. The strong adhesive bond stands up to high traffic, heavy rolling loads, and the everyday wear and tear of multipurpose spaces. Gerflor backs this performance with a 15-year no mold guarantee, offering peace of mind in environments where moisture is a constant concern.

Versatility – The system is ideal for a wide range of applications. Schools, gymnasiums, community centers, and recreation facilities can all benefit from a flooring solution that accommodates a range of activities, from competitive sports to events that require tables, chairs, and equipment.
