FUGA-PAVE Flex XP is a high-performance hybrid cement grout designed for indoor and outdoor porcelain tiling and paving. It forms durable, long-lasting joints and is engineered to resist weathering, UV exposure, temperature change and freeze-thaw conditions — making it particularly well-suited to UK external paving. Suitable for grout joints from 2mm to 30mm wide, including 20mm outdoor porcelain, natural stone, cement-based paving, terracotta and clay tiles. Available in 5kg and 15kg reusable buckets in five colours: Light Grey, Medium Grey, Anthracite, Limestone and Jasmin.
Key benefits: zero efflorescence · UV resistant & colourfast · naturally antibacterial · weather and freeze-thaw resistant · easy to mix (1 litre water per 5kg) · easy to apply and clean off · suitable for indoor and outdoor use.
At The Paving Experts, we recommend pre-sealing your paving before grouting with Flex XP to protect against grout haze and make clean-up quick and hassle-free. Tile Rite Patio Prep or the ProJoint Pre-Grout Sealer are both suitable. For best application, use a neoprene squeegee & 3 section pole.

Since its launch, FUGA-PAVE FLEX XP has become one of the most popular external paving grouts for porcelain and natural stone — and it’s easy to see why. Customers are drawn to its beautiful colour range, straightforward application, fine finish, and the fact that it’s formulated to significantly reduce efflorescence and staining. It’s a grout our customers consistently come back to tell us they’re delighted with: strong and flexible joints, clean colour-stable results, and a process that works equally well for professional tilers and confident DIYers.
FUGA-PAVE FLEX XP is suitable for joint widths from 3mm to 30mm and depths from 10mm, compatible with porcelain paving (including 20mm porcelain paving slabs), natural stone, sandstone, limestone, marble, slate, quartz, terracotta, ceramic and concrete — a professional-strength outdoor porcelain grout that’s equally at home on a residential patio or a large commercial project, for both internal and external applications.
We’re a small, family-run business — I’m Cleo, the owner, with over 25 years in the construction industry working with businesses including Tarmac and Instarmac. I work alongside a team of incredibly knowledgeable and caring individuals, and between us we’ve seen a lot of paving grouts come and go. FUGA-PAVE FLEX XP has earned its place in our range.
We confidently recommend FUGA-PAVE FLEX XP grout for the majority of porcelain and natural stone grouting projects where joint widths fall between 3mm and 30mm. It works particularly well on porcelain paving slabs — including 20mm porcelain paving — and on sawn or riven natural stone paving. For very narrow joints of 1–5mm, you may want to consider a specialist epoxy grout instead; give us a call and we’ll point you in the right direction.
FUGA-PAVE FLEX XP grout is part of the complete FUGA-PAVE Outdoor Tiling System, alongside FUGA-PAVE Hybrid Mortar (formerly Part A) and FUGA-PAVE Slurry Primer (formerly Part B) — a coordinated system designed to work together for secure, professional porcelain and natural stone installations. No extra additives needed — just mix with clean water.
FUGA-PAVE FLEX XP was launched in August 2025 as the upgraded successor to FUGA-PAVE FLEX CH Grout — its previous brand name. If you’ve used FLEX CH Part C on previous projects, FLEX XP is its direct replacement, now with improved cleaning properties, better workability in colder and damp conditions, and more sustainable, reusable packaging.

Choosing Your FUGA-PAVE FLEX XP Grout Colour
Choosing the right grout colour can make a significant difference to the finished appearance of your patio or paving. FUGA-PAVE FLEX XP grout is available in five non-fade, UV-resistant colours, allowing you to either complement your paving or create a contrasting finish.
First, consider whether your paving has warm or cool tones. As a general rule, matching the grout colour closely to your paving creates a seamless appearance, while a contrasting colour makes the joints more prominent.

How to Mix and Apply FUGA-PAVE Flex XP Grout
Tools Required
- Clean mixing bucket
- Paddle mixer or drill with mixing attachment
- Measuring jug
- Neoprene squeegee & 3 section pole (recommended by The Paving Experts)
- Sponge and clean water
- Washboy or pedalo (recommended for larger areas)
Before You Begin
- Ensure all grout joints are clean, dry and free of dust or debris.
- Joints must be fully cured and firm before grouting begins.
- Substrate temperature must be between 5°C and 30°C.
- At The Paving Experts, we strongly recommend applying a temporary pre-grout sealer — such as Tile Rite Patio Prep or the ProJoint Pre-Grout Sealer — before grouting to prevent grout haze and make clean-up significantly easier.
Mixing Instructions
- Use clean, cool water only — no additives or admixtures required.
- Mixing ratio: approximately 1 litre of water per 5kg of Flex XP (3 litres per 15kg bucket). Adjust slightly depending on ambient temperature and desired consistency.
- Add the Flex XP powder slowly into the water while mixing — not the other way around.
- Mix continuously for 2–3 minutes using a paddle mixer until a smooth, lump-free consistency is achieved.
- Allow the mixed grout to rest for 2 minutes, then briefly re-mix before application.
- Pot life: use within 30–45 minutes of mixing (temperature dependent). Do not add water to retemper.
Application
- Apply the mixed grout using a neoprene squeegee, working diagonally across the joints to ensure full penetration.
- Press firmly to ensure joints are fully filled.
- Remove excess grout from the surface promptly using the squeegee held at a 45° angle.
- After 15–30 minutes (when the grout begins to firm but before it fully sets), begin surface clean-up.
- Lightly dampen a sponge with clean water and wipe diagonally across the paving to remove residue. A washboy or pedalo will save significant time on larger areas.
- Rinse the sponge frequently and change water regularly.
- Once the surface has dried, a final polish with a clean dry cloth will remove any remaining haze.
Trafficking & Curing
- Allow to cure for 24 hours before light foot traffic.
- For heavy loads or wet areas, allow 72 hours.
Important Precautions
- Do not apply below 5°C or above 30°C.
- Avoid excessive water during clean-up — this can wash grout out of joints.
- Not suitable for movement joints.
- Always test on a small, inconspicuous area if uncertain about surface compatibility.
- Clean all tools with water immediately after use.

How to Mix and Apply FUGA-PAVE Flex XP Grout
Tools Required
- Clean mixing bucket
- Paddle mixer or drill with mixing attachment
- Measuring jug
- Neoprene squeegee & 3 section pole (recommended by The Paving Experts)
- Sponge and clean water
- Washboy or pedalo (recommended for larger areas)
Before You Begin
- Ensure all grout joints are clean, dry and free of dust or debris.
- Joints must be fully cured and firm before grouting begins.
- Substrate temperature must be between 5°C and 30°C.
- At The Paving Experts, we strongly recommend applying a temporary pre-grout sealer — such as Tile Rite Patio Prep or the ProJoint Pre-Grout Sealer — before grouting to prevent grout haze and make clean-up significantly easier.
Mixing Instructions
- Use clean, cool water only — no additives or admixtures required.
- Mixing ratio: approximately 1 litre of water per 5kg of Flex XP (3 litres per 15kg bucket). Adjust slightly depending on ambient temperature and desired consistency.
- Add the Flex XP powder slowly into the water while mixing — not the other way around.
- Mix continuously for 2–3 minutes using a paddle mixer until a smooth, lump-free consistency is achieved.
- Allow the mixed grout to rest for 2 minutes, then briefly re-mix before application.
- Pot life: use within 30–45 minutes of mixing (temperature dependent). Do not add water to retemper.
Application
- Apply the mixed grout using a neoprene squeegee, working diagonally across the joints to ensure full penetration.
- Press firmly to ensure joints are fully filled.
- Remove excess grout from the surface promptly using the squeegee held at a 45° angle.
- After 15–30 minutes (when the grout begins to firm but before it fully sets), begin surface clean-up.
- Lightly dampen a sponge with clean water and wipe diagonally across the paving to remove residue. A washboy or pedalo will save significant time on larger areas.
- Rinse the sponge frequently and change water regularly.
- Once the surface has dried, a final polish with a clean dry cloth will remove any remaining haze.
Trafficking & Curing
- Allow to cure for 24 hours before light foot traffic.
- For heavy loads or wet areas, allow 72 hours.
Important Precautions
- Do not apply below 5°C or above 30°C.
- Avoid excessive water during clean-up — this can wash grout out of joints.
- Not suitable for movement joints.
- Always test on a small, inconspicuous area if uncertain about surface compatibility.
- Clean all tools with water immediately after use.
