The King of Grouts
Epoxy grout is the king of grouts and Tile Tech Solutions are the leaders in installation. It is the most bulletproof grout available and the benefits are amazing. Initially it was heavily used in commercial and industrial applications due to its great features, however over the past few years it has gained a lot of popularity in the domestic sector. Many people appreciate the advantages epoxy grout has to offer and are happy to spend a little extra initially knowing they will save many times over in the long term.
Epoxy grouting involves installing new epoxy grout into joints that have never been grouted before. Epoxy re-grouting involves removing the old grout, cleaning all the joints and installing new epoxy grout of your choice.

Commercial Applications
In commercial situations specialty epoxy grouts are used in hospitals, cafes, restaurant kitchens, bathrooms, pubs, cool rooms and freezers. Commercial epoxy grout is different to a domestic version. Not all epoxy grouts are the same and definitely not a “one type suits all”. Tile Tech Solutions carry a special commercial grout range which meets Australian Standards. These grouts are difficult to install and require experienced technicians and equipment. All our technicians have been trained by epoxy grout manufacturers.
Domestic Applications
In domestic applications, epoxy grout is widely used in showers, walls and floors mainly because it is very difficult to stain, doesn’t allow mould to grow and is not affected by chemicals found in shampoos and conditioners. Being so stain-proof it doesn’t require heavy duty scrubbing or cleaning like regular grout does. It is also often used on kitchen splashbacks and floors – it repels oil stains as well as stains from general cooking.
Why Experience Matters
Epoxy grout is more difficult to install than regular grout and it does require specialists like Tile Tech Solutions technicians. More labour is required and speed is very important as pot life is extremely short. Special cleaning solutions are needed to rinse epoxy grout residue from tiles. If the residue is not removed within a specific time frame, permanent damage can be caused. Cured epoxy grout haze is not removable.
