Tile Grouts & Expansion Joints webinar

The performance and longevity of a tile installation depend on choosing the right grout, designing effective movement joints, and maintaining the assembly over time… and of course choosing a qualified tile contractor. To learn more, we invite you to join IMI’s webinar on Tile Grouts & Expansion Joints on May 19.

We’ll take you through the grout categories defined in the ANSI A118 standards, including Standard Cement, High Performance Cement, Epoxy, and Premixed Grouts. Each of these offers distinct characteristics that affect color consistency, cleanability, abrasion resistance, and durability. We’ll also look at how grout selection influences both performance and aesthetics, from color choice and joint width to alignment and layout. 

Then, learn the expansion joint requirements outlined by the Tile Council of North America (TCNA), including best practices for spacing, perimeter detailing, and movement accommodation. Finally, review recommended maintenance procedures, from initial cleaning and grout haze removal to sealer application and routine care, to ensure lasting performance, safety, and visual appeal.
