Laticrete Joins Endorsement of the INSTALL Substrate Prep Certification

The new INSTALL Substrate Prep Certification, developed in concert with underlayment manufacturers, is designed to increase flooring system success with proper substrate preparation training.

Laticrete joins nine other underlayment manufacturers- AC Tech, Ardex, CMP, Mapei, Schonox, SIKA, TEC, U Floor Systems and USG to specify the INSTALL Substrate Prep Certification. The MOU is a collective industry endorsement of INSTALL’s Substrate Prep Certification program. Each manufacturer has specified that the installer of its underlayment products be an INSTALL certified installer or equal, a testament to the quality of INSTALL training and certification.
