Laticrete, a leading manufacturer of globally proven construction solutions for the building industry, has expanded its best-in-class waterproofing and crack isolation membrane portfolio with the addition of two new products: Hydro Ban^Ⓡ XP and Hydro Barrier™ Plus.

Waterproofing and crack isolation membranes are widely used in the tile industry as part of substrate preparation prior to the installation of ceramic tiles or similar rigid materials. Membranes that deliver crack isolation performance are intended to maintain their integrity during movement of the substrate and thus prevent tile cracking.

In building, the magic happens when a safe, timely, durable and cost-effective project is delivered by the contractor. And, without a doubt, waterproofing when and where necessary is the most critical component of any finish construction assembly.
