"From its earliest days, Laticrete was founded on the importance of building a chemistry of trust with its customers and partners. Providing industry-leading technical and customer support has been a critical element of the success Laticrete has experienced," said Sean Boyle, senior director of marketing and product management. "The new and updated product lines we are demonstrating at the World of Concrete show that our 60-year track record of innovation continues unabated."

At the World of Concrete, Laticrete is launching Spartacote Flex Pure Clinical Plus, a specialty concrete coating system equipped with antimicrobial technology perfect for hospitals, veterinarian facilities, pharmaceutical facilities, research labs, clean rooms, prisons, locker rooms, restrooms and food and beverage processing areas.

This low-VOC, fast-curing, two-part polyaspartic aliphatic polyurea sealer/finish coating is designed to inhibit the growth of bacteria and viruses. Engineered to perform for the life of the floor, these hygienic coating systems prevent contamination throughout the entire system. The material is applied in a single or multiple coats by brush, roller, or squeegee at varying thicknesses to a variety of substrates. Spartacote Flex Pure™ Clinical Plus, provides optimal impact, abrasion, and chemical resistance characteristics.

"Spartacote Flex Pure Clinical Plus, exhibits over a 99% reduction in staph and salmonella over a 24-hour period when compared to a standard floor coating," said Boyle. "It is a truly phenomenal product."

The product is available in all Spartacote commercial, industrial and decorative flooring systems and can be applied as a top coat within seamless, multi-build chip/quartz coating systems.

Additionally, updated for the World of Concrete, Laticrete Drytek Moisture Vapor Barrier is now shipping with pigmented colors.

Designed for use in conjunction with Laticrete Spartacote, the Drytek Moisture Vapor Barrier Pigment Base may be mixed with Spartacote Epoxy Pigment and is available in eight different colors: black, white, light gray, medium gray, dark gray, light beige, sand beige, dark beige and tile red.

Drytek Moisture Vapor Barrier is a single-coat, 100% solids, liquid-applied two-part epoxy coating specifically designed for controlling the moisture vapor emission rate from new or existing concrete slabs prior to installing Drytek underlayment, decorative toppings and most resinous coatings.
