Publish Date: Monday, January 27, 2014

AURORA, IL...The TEC® brand will kick off a groundbreaking year at the 2014 International Surfaces Event on January 28-30 in Las Vegas. It will unveil Design FX™ grout – a stain-proof, ready-to-use grout – as well as an expanded line of flooring adhesives at the event.

At the International Surface Event, Surfaces and StonExpo/Marmomacc Americas will co-launch with the all-new TileExpo. These three tradeshows will bring together flooring, stone and tile professionals at Las Vegas’ Mandalay Bay Convention Center.

This new format allows TEC® to exhibit its tile setting and surface preparation products, while also introducing an array of new flooring products. The booth will also feature several CHAPCO® products.

Visitors to the TEC® booth will discover the company’s latest breakthrough technology in its Design FX™ grout. Available in crystal, silver and bronze, Design FX™ grout has a reflective effect and accentuates the natural beauty of glass, mosaic and metal tile, while also complementing ceramic, porcelain and natural stone tile. It will be available for retail and wholesale purchase in the spring of 2014.

The TEC® booth will reflect the brand’s refreshed and enhanced image, which represents its commitment to those who imagine great spaces and those who build them. In-booth demonstrations will include The LiquiDAM® from TEC® and CHAPCO® DEFENDER™, moisture vapor barriers that share the same formula. Visitors to the booth can also experience TecniColor™ Commercial Grade Grout, watch a demonstration of TEC® wood adhesives and learn about the brand’s products for large panel tile.

 “Surfaces is an excellent opportunity to connect with a broad array of industry professionals,” says Grant Huffine, Senior Market Manager for H.B. Fuller Construction Products Inc., manufacturer of TEC® and CHAPCO® products. “The show provides a unique platform to debut our new innovations and showcase both our flooring adhesives and our tile setting solutions."
