One-Step Glass Tile Adhesive

Laticrete, a global leader in the manufacturing of innovative systems for the installation of tile and stone, has announced the launch of Laticrete® Glass Tile Adhesive, a new one-step polymer-fortified adhesive mortar that's been specifically formulated for glass tile applications.

Laticrete Glass Tile Adhesive features a consistent, ultra-white color that can be mixed onsite by adding water to produce a smooth, creamy thin-set with superior non-sag characteristics. Laticrete Glass Tile Adhesive is approved for any type of glass tile on floors or walls in interior or exterior applications, including continuous submersion and other water features.

The ultra-white color provided by Laticrete Glass Tile Adhesive enhances the vibrant, often colorful look of glass tile or glass mosaic tile designs, particularly ones that feature iridescent or translucent surface types. Laticrete Glass Tile Adhesive offers superior color consistency and non-sag performance when designing with glass or glass mosaic tiles. Laticrete Glass Tile Adhesive has been equipped with Microban® antimicrobial product protection to inhibit the growth of stain-causing mold and bacteria, and has been certified low VOC by the GreenGuard® Environmental Institute for contributions to LEED or LEED for Homes building projects.

Laticrete Glass Tile Adhesive does not require additives or admix for any type of glass tile application, eliminating a time-consuming step even when used for exterior projects or swimming pools. Available in a 25 lb. (11.3 kg) trilingual recyclable bag and a uniquely-sized 10 lb. (4.5 kg) carton, the smaller carton size makes Laticrete Glass Tile Adhesive the ideal choice for small-scale projects such as kitchen and bath countertops, backsplashes, showers, hot tubs and delicate glass tile detail work. With a tenacious, durable bond that resists shrinkage, Laticrete Glass Tile Adhesive exceeds applicable ANSI A118.4 and ANSI A118.11 bond strength requirements without the need for special additives.
