A professional-grade, ready-to-use specialty grout that allows you to “design your color,” any color, through personalized computer color-matching, Mapei Flexcolor Design is formulated for commercial and residential interior installations of porcelain, ceramic, glass and natural-stone tiles.

The joint alliance between Mapei and NRF Distributors will extend access to Mapei’s complete line of flooring solutions including floor-covering adhesives and tile-setting materials to customers in that region.
