fillers
Under the heading 'Produktart':
Hydratisch abbindende, vergütete Innenspachtelmasse auf Naturgipsbasis.
Can anyone clarify the following for me?
Hydratisch abbindende - I presume this means that the filler sets when mixed with water but is there a neat way of expressing this?
vergütete - not sure about this. I found 'tempered', 'coated' and 'annealed' but none of these seem appropriate here. 'Refined' perhaps?
auf Naturgipsbasis - does this just mean that the filler contains gypsum?
Any help would be appreciated!

with a toughening additive
is what the second part means. Wolf's first part is quite correct, though. My suggestion for the whole thing is:
"Hydration-cured gypsum-based filler with toughening additive, for interior use".
"Hydration-cured gypsum-based filler with toughening additive, for interior use".

: additive is rather dodgy, and even if correct it would still improve the properties
