LATICRETE Wins 2019 Coverings Installation & Design Award

LATICRETE has been recognized as a winner of the 2019 Coverings Installation & Design Awards in the Special Recognition-Institutional category for its craftsmanship and technical know-how involved with completing the new main building of the Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital Stanford in Northern California. LATICRETE supplied installation materials and onsite support to artist and installer Drostle Public Arts, bringing life to two mosaic tile designs made from 19 mosaic panels representative of California’s seashore and the Redwood Forest.

The products supplied by LATICRETE all hold multiple certifications and declarations, including Health Product Declarations, Environmental Product Declarations and UL GREENGUARD Gold Certifications for low chemical emissions.

An esteemed panel of editors, leading designers and industry professionals evaluated the project submission based on execution, original usage and overall design and purpose, and gave special recognition to those projects exemplifying noteworthy tile and stone applications.

In 2018, the new main building at Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital Stanford was awarded LEED Platinum status, the highest designation for sustainability recognized by the U.S. Green Building Council. Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital Stanford is one of just five hospitals in the world — and only the second children’s hospital — to achieve LEED Platinum certification.
