NEW PRODUCTS tell them you saw it in LATICRETE introduces 257 TITANIUM™, a lightweight high-perfor- mance thin- set mortar designed to function as the optimal choice for install- ing gauged porcelain tile (GPT) and gauged porcelain tile panels/slabs (GPTP) in commercial, residen- tial and industrial applications. It exceeds ANSI A118.15, the indus- try’s highest performance standard for a cementitious-based adhesive mortar, providing worry-free interior, exterior or submerged installations. Additionally, 257 TITANIUM utilizes LATICRETE HYDROMATIC CURE CHEMISTRY™, which accelerates the hydration process to rapidly con- sume water in the system, allowing the material to cure in a predictable manner. 257 TITANIUM is silica sand-free, which both reduces expo- sure to respirable silica and contrib- utes to the easy-to-spread creamy consistency and ease of troweling. Available in 25 pound (11.3 kilo- gram) bags in grey and white, 257 TITANIUM is a component of the LATICRETELifetimeSystemWarranty providing one source, one warran- ty from the substrate to the grout. www.laticrete.com Motawi releases one of its pre- viously retired designs, Alhambra, now in a 4” x 4” size. This his- torical tile design is inspired by the Alhambra Castle in Grenada, Spain, which dates back to the 9th century, with restoration beginning in the 19th century. The name Alhambra comes from the reddish walls of the structure. In Arabic, ga’lat al- Hamra means Red Castle. Tiles in the Alhambra are abundant, and this classic repetitive pattern in Motawi’s Alhambra tile design is a nod to Motawi’s founder and owner’s Arabic heritage. www.motawi.com Landmark Ceramics introduces Re-True, a porcelain stoneware tile collection with a surface that has a true wood effect that gives the look of re-claimed boards being reused in new contexts, bearing the marks of time, as well as machining and paint stripping.
