Cuatro Christian School

Over the last 10 years, Troy Wicks, Regional Sales Manager has been involved with and worked on several international outreach projects. Last year he brought LATICRETE® SPARTACOTE® resinous coating systems to a school in South Africa. Earlier this year several LATICRETE team members went down to Haiti and completed a SPARTACOTE project in conjunction with Builders Health International. In the latest project, he joined forces with the Lighthouse Club (a British charity organization for expat construction professionals) to do work for the Cautro Christian School in Manila, Philippines.

Glenn Prince, International Regional Manager - Flooring Division Asia worked to coordinate donations for the school from local contractors as well as a supply all of the LATICRETE products needed to transform two sets of stairs and a walkway.

Troy, Glenn, and several of our LATICRETE Philippines team members helped train local contractors on our SPARTACOTE products. They received on-site training while working on the project as well as additional training on new products at our Philippines plant.

The Project:

(2) sets of stairs using SPARTACOTE® Chip™

(1) walkway stained and sealed with L&M™ VIVID DYE™ and L&M™ LUMISEAL FX™

We appreciate everyone who has helped make this project a success including:

Fast Fab Corp.: Edwin Isip, Robin Tamayo, and Lorenz Anthony Bea

LATICRETE Team Members: Troy Wicks, Glenn Prince, Reymar Husmillo, Crisanto Gonzales, Ralph Baclayo, Gladys Fernandez, Ricardo Angeles Jr., Dan Jan Ragos, Rey Gello-Ano, Patricia Michaela Theodora Mejorada, Amira Cuevas, Jose Marie Idorot, Rommel Concepcion, Ralph Baclayo, and Rey Zamora.

We look forward to the next international outreach project!

LATICRETE^® is pleased to announce the ability to broadcast chip and quartz media into wet DRYTEK™ Moisture Vapor Barrier (MVB) material used as a base coat or primer coat for SPARTACOTE^® coating systems. As you may know, DRYTEK MVB is a single-coat, 100% solids, liquid applied, 2-part epoxy coating specifically designed for controlling the moisture vapor emission rate from new or existing concrete slabs.

The installer may add pigments to the DRYTEK MVB during installation in a variety of colors including: black, white, tile red, light grey, medium grey, dark grey, light beige, dark beige and sand beige.

Contractors who apply the DRYTEK MVB as a base coat in their SPARTACOTE^® coating systems not only save a step in the coatings process, but they also offer floor owners additional protection against moisture, something many applicators run into on a daily basis in the field. Applicators may use DRYTEK MVB as a base color for clear SPARTACOTE top coats in addition to the quartz or chip broadcasts. Any questions - Contact LATICRETE.
