AURORA, Ill. -- H.B. Fuller Construction Products announces its new TEC® Uncoupling Membrane Mortar, specifically for use with the Schluter®-DITRA uncoupling membrane and the Schluter®-KERDI waterproofing membrane.
“Our customers wanted a TEC brand mortar that was endorsed by Schluter Systems for added peace of mind from two of the most respected names in the industry”, says Grant Huffine, Senior Market Manager for H.B. Fuller Construction Products. “We listened, developed the TEC Uncoupling Membrane Mortar and worked closely with Schluter Systems to deliver.”
Endorsed by Schluter-Systems, TEC Uncoupling Membrane Mortar provides installers with confidence by offering a formula that has been developed, tested and approved with Schluter®-DITRA and Schluter®-KERDI systems.
