Gold Medal for ROMEX: ROMPOX®-ECOFINE Impresses the Expert Jury at GARDENIA 2026
This award in Poznań reaffirms our commitment to providing contractor-friendly, high-quality solutions for gardening and landscaping.
We are absolutely thrilled: At GARDENIA 2026, Poland’s leading trade fair for gardening and landscaping, our innovative paving joint mortar ROMPOX®-ECOFINE was awarded the gold medal. This honor, bestowed by an independent panel of experts, is a special recognition for us - and a moment the entire team can be proud of.
What makes ROMPOX®-ECOFINE so special?
With ROMPOX®-ECOFINE, we have developed a paving joint mortar that meets several needs of modern contractors and discerning end customers at once:
- Ready to use & easy: The single-component mortar is simply mixed with water and cures in the air - without the hassle of mixing multiple components.
- Virtually resin-free: Unlike traditional epoxy resin mortars, ROMPOX®-ECOFINE does not form an unsightly synthetic resin film on the stone surface. The result is a natural, high-quality joint appearance.
- Water-permeable: The joint remains open to water and unseals the surface - a growing requirement among municipalities and private builders.
- Suitable for joint widths starting at 3 mm: Also ideal for narrow joints and delicate paving.
- Durable & low-maintenance: No weed growth, no ant infestations, no washout - for surfaces that look great even years later.
A Sign of Things to Come for the European Landscaping and Gardening Industry
For years, the GARDENIA trade show in Poznań has been a key gathering place for professionals from Poland and all of Eastern Europe. The fact that our innovation was honored with the highest award here of all places shows that the demand for practical, high-quality products has grown across Europe—and with ROMPOX®-ECOFINE, we’re perfectly in tune with the spirit of the times.
For us, this award is both an incentive and a commitment. We will continue steadfastly on our path: developing products that make life easier for installers and deliver long-lasting quality to end customers.
