Pioneer of crack isolation technology celebrates 30th anniversary
National Applied Construction (NAC) Products, Inc., the company that introduced the industry to ECB and crack isolation membrane technology, is celebrating its 30th year in business in 2013.
Founded in 1983, NAC pioneered the “anti-fracture/crack isolation” membrane in the tile industry as a way to protect decorative floors from failure caused by lateral substrate movement. The popularity of the technology inspired a new category of installation products and led to the development of an ANSI standard for crack isolation membranes – ANSI-A118.12.
