Quick Connection
The price of microcement is not a fixed number and varies depending on the type of material; for instance, Zarrin’s single-component powder elements start from approximately 420,000 to 490,000 Tomans, whereas specialty materials such as micrometal or iron oxide can reach up to 2,500,000 Tomans. A point that is often overlooked is that the final price per square meter does not depend solely on the product’s price; the quality of the substrate preparation, the number of layers, the type of finish, and the professional application labor costs impact the overall expense just as much. In this article, you will both see the material prices clearly and become familiar with the factors that determine the actual cost of microcement application.

The price of microcement depends less on a “fixed number” and more on the type and structure of the material. Below, you can see the exact prices of Zarrin’s single-component products alongside the approximate price range of other common types on the market, giving you a clear picture of the differences.
| Microcement Type | Product / Category | Price (Toman) | Packaging | Description |
| Powder (Single-Component) – Zarrin | White Base | 420,000 | 10 / 25 kg | Base Coat |
| Powder (Single-Component) – Zarrin | White Mid | 420,000 | 10 / 25 kg | Middle Coat |
| Powder (Single-Component) – Zarrin | White Fine | 440,000 | 25 kg | Final Coat |
| Powder (Single-Component) – Zarrin | Self-Colored Porcelain Base | 470,000 | 25 kg | Uniform Color |
| Powder (Single-Component) – Zarrin | Self-Colored Porcelain Fine | 490,000 | 25 kg | Self-Colored Finish |
| Powder – Straw Texture | Straw Microcement | 470,000 | 25 kg | Natural Design / Texture |
| Metallic / Colored Additive | Micrometal and Iron Oxide | 2,500,000 | 1 / 4 / 10 units | Metallic and Textured Effect |
Single-component powder microcement is the most widely used option for application on various surfaces because it is easier to apply and more affordable. In Zarrin’s price list, products in this category start at 420,000 Toman (White Base and White Mid) and reach 490,000 Toman (Self-Colored Porcelain Fine). A key advantage of this material is that after three coats, no final primer is required on the surface, roller marks are not left behind, and the color does not become uneven. This directly reduces the cost and time of microcement application.
The two-component type consists of separate powder and resin components and offers higher resistance to moisture and abrasion, which makes it suitable for bathrooms and restrooms. This grade is not separately priced in Zarrin’s Khordad 1405 price list, and its market price is generally higher than powder microcement and depends on the brand and type of resin. For an exact price, it is best to request a direct quotation.
Textured and patterned finishes depend on the base material and additives used. Among Zarrin products, Straw Microcement priced at 470,000 Toman creates a natural texture, while metallic additives such as Micrometal and Iron Oxide, priced at 2,500,000 Toman, create metallic and patterned effects. The final cost of these finishes also depends on the skill of the applicator, as the desired pattern is manually created on the surface.

The price per kilogram of microcement powder is only part of the story. The actual cost reflected on your final invoice is determined by several factors:
Among these factors, surface preparation has the greatest hidden impact on the final price.
The type of surface determines how much preparation and primer is required. In Zarrin’s price list, water-based primer is offered at 400,000 Toman and is responsible for ensuring adhesion between the layers. The differences between surfaces can be summarized as follows:
An important point is that Zarrin’s powder microcements do not require a final primer after three coats, which eliminates one additional cost.

If you choose a surface coating based solely on its initial price, you may make the wrong decision and even fail to achieve the desired result in the end. What matters is the long-term value of purchasing microcement: durability, maintenance costs, and the feeling it brings to a space. Below, we compare microcement with three common alternatives.
At first glance, tile may seem inexpensive, but its hidden costs are high. Tile installation requires demolition of the existing surface, surface preparation, adhesive, grouting, and significant tile installer labor costs. Microcement can be applied directly over the existing surface, eliminating demolition and debris removal costs. Zarrin microcement powder starts at around 420,000 Toman (White), and with optimized consumption per square meter, its material cost can be competitive with high-quality tile, with the added advantage of achieving a seamless, grout-free surface.
This comparison should be realistic:
Simply put, paint and wallpaper involve recurring costs, while microcement is a one-time investment that can last for several years.
Slab stone offers a luxurious appearance, but it is expensive, heavy, and difficult to install. It requires a strong structure, specialized transportation, and costly installation. Microcement creates the same seamless and modern feel with significantly less weight and without joints. Even Zarrin’s specialty materials, such as Micrometal and Iron Oxide (approximately 2,500,000 Toman), which create luxurious metallic and stone-like effects, are still more economical than the final cost of slab stone.
When you calculate the material separately from labor costs, you get a more accurate picture of your budget. In this case, there are three main cost categories: the primary powder, surface preparation materials, and the final protective layer. Separating these three categories helps you understand where your money is being spent and where you can save.
