Kerlite WOWS Architects at IMI Event

On Monday, May 21st, Mid-America Tile introduced the latest thin tile technology to many of the top architects in the industry with the help of the International Masonry Institute (IMI) at IMI's training center in Addison, Illinois.

The event was part of IMI's Monday Masonry Seminar Series. Matt Nordloh of MAPEI presented Leaner, Greener, Larger, Lighter: Thin Tile Systems to over 70 architects and manufacturer reps in attendance. The session outlined the features and benefits of thin body tiles including design and installation requirements and techniques for successful projects. Following the class, attendees went downstairs to see firsthand demos and product presentations of the benefits of Kerlite Plus tile given by representatives of Kerlite, MAPEI, Tuscan Leveling Systems, Mid-America Tile and Wedi. Attendees were also able to view a wall mock-up featuring a 40" x 120" sheet of Kerlite Plus tile.

From the positive comments voiced by many of the architects we are looking forward to seeing Kerlite Plus specified for a lot of future projects!
