With the explosion of large format tile installations in different thicknesses, many designers and tile contractors must factor in specifying and installing profiles and transition products for these projects. Just like it is with grout and other material selections, specifying the right products for finishing and protecting edges and creating the proper transitions to other surfaces is essential for the projects success. Thanks to innovative technology in this category, these products can also contribute to the design of the space as well as improve its functionality. This session will discuss product specification and installation and update attendees on developments to create standards to help in specification and installation guidance.
