DryTile Modular Ceramic Tile System Requires Subfloors Like HPS Schönox Provides

As part of its ongoing effort to be Ön It through innovation, solutions and service, SCHÖNOX HPS NORTH AMERICA announced that it has entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with DryTile North America, the exclusive importer of the DryTile system of non-adhesive ceramic tile.

The agreement confirms mutual interest and collaboration between the parties to further advance DryTile modular ceramic tile, which HPS and DryTile believe will be an addition to the North American flooring industry. The DryTile System has already been used in installations throughout Europe, and DryTile North America expects a positive reception with its target market. The involvement of Schönox follows the requirement of a solid, smooth and level subfloor, a result that is guaranteed through the Schönox line of floor-leveling compounds and repair products in combination with professional installers.

“I was intrigued by the DryTile system when I first saw it in operation in Germany and clearly see the advantages offered by a modular tiling approach. In addition to sustainability, which is important to us at Schönox, the flexibility in design and ease of installation are ideal. The fact that this system requires a smooth subfloor fits with our Schönox leveling products,” says Thomas Trissl, HPS Schönox principal.

“The only prerequisite for the DryTile system is a smooth subsurface. The Schönox subfloor aligns with the requirements of the DryTile tiling system. With level floors, our tiling approach has the potential to be both impactful and successful,” says Udo J. Reich, DryTile North America president.

The MoU establishes a framework for collaboration between each party, leveraging HPS’ existing relationships in the North American flooring industry and establishing Schönox as the subfloor leveling system to be used in conjunction with DryTile.
