LATICRETE donated a pallet of GREENGUARD certified materials to the Atlanta Habitat for Humanity.
LATICRETE, a global leader in the manufacturing of innovative systems for the installation of tile and stone, generously donated a pallet of GREENGUARD certified materials this July to the Atlanta Habitat for Humanity to install porcelain tiled floors in the kitchens and bathrooms of six, two-story townhouses in the Sylvan Hills section of Atlanta.

Dal-Tile in Duluth, Georgia, a member of the LATICRETE MVP (Most Valued Partner) program, donated all of the 18” x 18” porcelain tiles, which were installed throughout July with the LATICRETE System by Tiede-Zoeller, Inc in Atlanta. LATICRETE donated LATICRETE Sure Setâ„¢ thin-set adhesive and LATICRETE 1500 Sanded Grout for all the tiles in the kitchens. In each bathroom, LATICRETE® 9235 Waterproofing Membrane was added to the same system to protect against harmful moisture penetration in the wet areas. Long the industry standard, LATICRETE 9235 Waterproofing Membrane is a thin, liquid applied, load bearing waterproofing/anti-fracture membrane that will protect the finished installation from potential water damage and prevent new or existing cracks in the substrate from telegraphing through to the finished tile work. LATICRETE 9235 Waterproofing inhibits the growth of mold and mildew with antimicrobial product protection from Microban®.
