and pH imbalance
n Single source supply of key accessory items such as
waterproofing, tile adhesives, grouts, sealants, and underlayments
n Easy-to-install, water-cleanable products which reduce labor,
material costs and maintenance
In Addition, the LATICRETE®
System Provides:
n Long lasting installations
n Technical services – helping your architectural staff with proper
specifications and details
