MYK LATICRETE
MYK LATICRETE tackled the challenges at Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport by implementing solutions that ensured durability, moisture resistance, and waterproofing across various areas. To handle the heavy foot traffic, we provided adhesives that maintained the integrity of tiles and stones under constant use, preventing cracking and wear. For moisture-sensitive natural stones, we utilized advanced bonding techniques and protective sealers to prevent staining and deterioration, preserving the stone’s appearance and strength. In wet areas, effective waterproofing measures were employed to prevent leaks and ensure long-term durability, with grouts specifically designed to withstand the humid environment, ensuring non-cracking and resilient installations.
