LATICRETE Australia Appoints New Technical Sales Representative

LATICRETE Australia is excited to announce Daniel Minos has taken up the position as Technical Sales Representative in Victoria, alongside Chris Stenhouse.

From an early age Daniel enjoyed the concept of building things and sharing knowledge. Starting in sales in retail, Daniel then went on to study and was awarded the 2010 Apprentice of the year in Floor and Wall Tiling. Once qualified, Daniel was self-employed as a tiler and took on the challenge of teaching at TAFE as he enjoys teaching a skill or sharing knowledge. Most recently Daniel worked in Japan at an IB School,  and had the opportunity to teach building and construction skills.

In Daniels spare time he enjoys music as can be reflected in his record collection, he enjoys bushcrafts, learning and practicing some of the “lost arts” trades such as woodcarving, leatherworking, blacksmithing and using/repair vintage tools to build things by hand.

I am extremely fortunate to have had these experiences in life that has given me a global perspective, trade skills, knowledge and teaching that I look forward to bringing with me in my work at LATICRETE. It’s a nice feeling to be able to support the company that supported me in my early years as a tiler. (2010 Apprentice of The Year… I still have the trailer thank you guys!!). It’s a small world after all.”

Welcome to the LATICRETE family Daniel. We wish you all the best in your new position at LATICRETE Australia.

STONETECH® New Look Coming Soon!



Same Great Product - Just a FRESH New Look

COMING SOON!!!

Packaging should speak for itself! The dynamic colour and design of the NEW STONETECH® packaging effectively communicates what the product is and does quickly and clearly. A new look that will better serve you and your customers.  

This is strictly a package design change - NO change in formulas or any performance!

What’s new? 
  • Attention grabbing green colour bottle - Drive end users to the bottle. Gone are the 3x bottle colours that caused confusion at the shelf and did not unify the brand. Green helps to convey that we are committed to offering high performing, safe and reliable products.
  • Category colour differentiation via the label – Guides the end user to the products they need. The label will be the main indicator between Natural Look Penetrating Sealers (Yellow), Cleaners (Green) and Enhancing Sealers (Red).
  • Key surface types called out – Quickly identify the surface material.
  • New image & updated product claims – Clearly communicates core features and benefits. Pictures resonate with end users and show product results.
  • New product guarantee icon – We stand by our products. We have updated the duration period of our product warranty on select products. This also establishes a good - better - best strategy on some items.
  • Informative icons – Water or Solvent-based & No VOC or Low VOC are clearly marked to identify safer products.
  • A sturdier package – Bottles are redesigned to improve induction seals. Spray bottles and tops feature a semi-locking mechanism and a sturdier case pack.

LATICRETE continue to invest in growing our STONETECH® surface care product line and are excited about this new look! Should you have questions, please contact your LATICRETE® Technical Sales Representative or call 1800 331 012 for more info.
