A LATICRETE Solution<br />
LATICRETE solutions used in the <strong>432</strong> Park Ave.<br />
project include:<br />
bought to install everything, which allowed<br />
them to move quickly to meet deadlines.<br />
DRYTEK ® LEVELEX is a cement-based, easyto-use,<br />
self-leveling underlayment designed for<br />
use over various substrates including concrete<br />
and ceramic tile. DRYTEK LEVELEX provides<br />
a smooth and flat surface on which finished<br />
floor goods can be installed. Installers went<br />
through 60 truckloads of material—which is<br />
the equivalent of 55,000 bags—delivered<br />
on time from the nearby LATICRETE facility<br />
in Connecticut. In addition, Grade Industrial<br />
and LATICRETE came in to do on-site testing<br />
and training to use the pump Roger and Sons<br />
L&M DURACRETE, a single component,<br />
polymer- reinforced, high-strength, cementbased<br />
patching and resurfacing mortar<br />
designed to repair, slope or level structurally<br />
sound, interior and exterior concrete surfaces<br />
that are pitted, worn, scaled or spalled,<br />
was used to fix bugholes in the walls after<br />
the forms were pulled. This product can be<br />
sculpted to patch concrete members and<br />
deep voids, and when properly applied,<br />
produces a strong, durable, well bonded<br />
surface of desired texture.<br />
A project like this really demands the best of everyone involved—from<br />
“<br />
contractors and installers to suppliers. We knew we could count on<br />
LATICRETE to provide the solutions we needed in a timely manner to keep<br />
us on track and get the results we wanted<br />

Outcome<br />
<strong>432</strong> Park Ave. will likely be ready for full<br />
occupancy in early 2016. Everyone involved<br />
has been pleased with the results and the<br />
building will live up to its billing as one of<br />
the most desirable properties in Manhattan.<br />
With perfectly level floors ready for highend<br />
finishes, designers have the canvas<br />
they wanted on which to implement their<br />
concepts. <strong>432</strong> Park Ave. will be the talk of<br />
the town for years to come.<br />
