NEW PRODUCTS tell them you saw it in Ege Seramik introduces The ROAD Collection, a matte-finish, glazed porcelain tile created spe- cifically for the North American Market. Taking two tile trends and combining them into one, the ROAD Collection offers a bal- anced mixture of both textile and cement looks. Ege worked with design partners to replicate a piece of gauze embedded in cement, with a matte finish and digital printing accents that rein- force its textile theme. Available in grey, ivory and taupe and avail- able in 12” x 24” and 18” x 36” formats, the ROAD Collection is ideal for both residential and commercial applications, indoors and out for floors and walls. www. egeseramik.com Schluter-Systems has devel- oped three new thin-set mortars for ceramic and stone tile instal- lation. Schluter SET™ unmodi- fied thin-set mortar, Schluter ALL- SET™ modified thin-set mortar, and Schluter FAST-SET™ rapid- setting modified thin-set mortar are all specifically formulated for Schluter® membranes and boards to provide a single source for their tile installation systems, with guaranteed product com- patibility. The Schluter ALL-SET modified thin-set is engineered for use both under and over all DITRA® and KERDI® products. The Schluter FAST-SET rapid-set- ting modified thin-set is ready to grout in four hours for fast- track projects. All three products, including the Schluter SET, are approved to set porcelain tile over Schluter boards and membranes. The modified mortars have been specifically formulated to set and gain strength in a timeframe that fits typical installation practice, even when sandwiched between Schluter membranes or boards and porcelain tile; extended dry- times not required. Performance has been validated through both laboratory and practical testing. When Schluter-Systems’ new thin-set mortars are used within certain Schluter applications, an extended lifetime limited warran- ty is available. Schluter-Systems will continue to warrant its sys- tems when other manufactur- ers’ unmodified thin-set mortars meeting ANSI A118.1 are used to install tile. www.schluter.com.
