Laticrete Expands Resinous Flooring Line in Brazil

Bethany, Conn. -- Laticrete has acquired Solepoxy Ltda., a Brazilian producer of high quality resinous floor coatings, including epoxy, urethane, polyaspartic and epoxy terrazzo. The company will now operate under the name Laticrete Solepoxy.

“This acquisition is an important part of our strategic plan to become a full-line supplier in the flooring industry worldwide,” said Erno de Bruijn, president and COO of Laticrete’s international division. “The technology, experience and reputation that Solepoxy brings us in the area of resinous floor coatings will be leveraged in all our other international business units outside Brazil. It also brings us back into the Brazilian market itself, where the Laticrete brand had been present for more than 20 years.”
