Where to use XFIXI
The XFIXI concrete substitute can be used to set a wide range of objects in the ground:
- Fence posts
- Light fixtures
- Road signs
- Signposts
- Bicycle racks
- Park benches
- Advertising stands
- Flagpoles
- Temporary fencing
- Sculptures/statues
- Interior features
- Securing greenhouse frames
But the XFIXI concrete substitute is far more versatile than that – it can help you at work, at home, in the garden, at your summer house or on the farm.
When using XFIXI for other purposes, follow the same directions as given in the instructions.
Please remember that the hole diameter should be 3-5 cm larger than the diameter of the object being set, so that it can be levelled accurately and secured properly.
XFIXI HAS MANY USES – it can be a great help at work, at home, in the garden, at your summer house and on the farm!
XFIXI can also be used to set various objects in the ground, in soil or in pre-prepared mounting points:
- Bicycle racks
- Park benches
- Picnic tables
- Flower beds (and their retaining walls)
- Waste bins
- Sculptures/statues
- Interior features
- Securing greenhouse frames
- Securing vertical canopy posts
What is the XFIXI concrete substitute?
XFIXI is a new, innovative technology in Latvia that makes it easy to set any fence, gate or other object in the ground. XFIXI saves you time and effort and makes life simpler. Compare installation speeds: concrete and dry mixes (so far the most common materials for this kind of work) can take up to 24 hours to set, whereas fully securing a post with XFIXI takes just 10-15 minutes. XFIXI mastic is based on an innovative material that gives XFIXI products enhanced fixing and protective properties.
How much will XFIXI cost me?
The price of an XFIXI kit depends on the quantity of product required and on the distributor.
When costing your project, it is IMPORTANT to factor in the time and labour you will save by choosing XFIXI products. You can work out how much material you need for standard fence posts with our dedicated calculator.
Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
Contact us!
The amount of material needed depends on the size of the structures being set. XFIXI kits for larger projects are available in various volumes – contact us and we will recommend the best possible solution for your project at the best prices.
We currently offer an XFIXI kit designed for properly filling one hole. The kit consists of a component A bottle and a component B bottle.
*The bottle is not filled to the top, because the contents of the component B bottle are to be added to the component A bottle as described in the instructions.
XFIXI can be used to set:
Fence posts
Light fixtures
Road signs
Signposts
Advertising stands
Flagpoles
Temporary fencing
Roadside fencing
When using XFIXI for other purposes, follow the same directions as given in the instructions. Please remember that the hole diameter should be 3-5 cm larger than the diameter of the object being set, so that it can be levelled accurately and secured properly.
XFIXI can also be used to set various objects in the ground, in soil or in pre-prepared mounting points:
Bicycle racks
Park benches
Picnic tables
Flower beds (and their retaining walls)

Unlike concrete (the material most commonly used for the same job), XFIXI is waterproof once fully cured. XFIXI also helps protect timber from rot and metal from corrosion, provided the material has been applied as described in the instructions.
If water has collected in the installation hole, wait until it has soaked into the surrounding soil. To speed this up, you can pump it out with a water pump or add sand/gravel to the bottom of the hole.
No. We recommend using the XFIXI concrete substitute in dry weather only. However, if it starts to rain after you have set your posts with XFIXI, the mastic – unlike concrete – becomes 100% waterproof as it cures, provided XFIXI has been applied as described in the instructions.
Acidic soil does not affect the functional properties (durability) of XFIXI. In acidic soil the material protects timber posts from decay, rot and breakdown, and metal posts from corrosion.
Yes, XFIXI is based on innovative materials. Once the two components have been combined and poured into place as described in the instructions, the mastic cures fully into an inert mass. This prevents chemicals from leaching into the soil and groundwater.
*Please note that treated timber posts may contain hazardous chemicals that can leach out and pollute the surrounding soil. The high adhesion and density of XFIXI fully isolate the fixed object from the soil, helping to stop chemicals leaching into the surrounding ground.
Always make sure the XFIXI pack has been kept at 20°C-27°C for at least three hours before starting work. A lower temperature slows the reaction and produces less material. A higher temperature speeds up the reaction, shortens the time available for mixing (the components react faster) and produces a larger quantity of lower-quality product.
If components A and B are mixed for longer than the recommended time given in the instructions, the reaction may start while the mastic is still in the bottle, which can deform the packaging. This deformation can cause harm both to your health and to surrounding objects!
No, you can pour XFIXI directly into the ground. In fact, we recommend not using such pipes – when the XFIXI concrete substitute is poured straight into the ground it achieves better adhesion (grip on the surface of the object being set).
Please note that once cured, XFIXI is virtually impossible to remove from clothing! You can try cleaning it off with pumice stone. Please bear in mind that this may damage your clothing.
*When working with XFIXI, we recommend wearing the gloves supplied in the kit and reading the instructions for use.
When the product is used correctly, the manufacturer provides the statutory warranty period of 2 years. However, the actual service life of the material is more than 25 years.
Yes, it does if the XFIXI material is exposed to direct sunlight. However, when the material is applied as described in the instructions, no UV effect on the product has been observed. You can read how to apply the material correctly in the instructions for use.
NOTE: If the top layer of soil is not covered with sand or gravel, direct UV light will affect the quality of the XFIXI product.
