LATICRETE has earned a global
reputation for the ability to provide the specification details, technical
support and complete systems for the installation of tile & stone, with
continued success on an increasing number of high-profile swimming pool
projects.
In a global effort between U.S.
based technical services, and through local supply and on-site support provided
by LATICRETE Southeast Asia, LATICRETE materials were selected for Boston
architect Moshe Safdie’s ambitious infinity-edge pool design. The pool spans across three 55-story hotel
skyscrapers on top of the exclusive Marina Bay Sands® Singapore.
Measuring over three times that
of an Olympic-sized swimming pool on a cantilevered rooftop observation deck,
the Sands® SkyPark signature design element was no ordinary pool tile
application. Safdie’s elaborate, famous pool that connects all three
towers, ultimately relied on the pioneering technology developed by LATICRETE.
Due to the unique structural
design, weight, and stresses placed on the three buildings of the Sands
SkyPark, it was necessary to bond the tile directly to the stainless steel pool
shell. To accomplish this task, LATAPOXY® 300 Adhesive, a high-strength 100%
solids epoxy adhesive, was chosen based on its ability to tenaciously bond to
stainless steel. Read the full Project Spotlight here.
