Mapei’s relationship with Starnet Worldwide Commercial Flooring is strong. “MAPEI was very well represented in several Starnet Design Award entries and winners,” said Eric Boender, Starnet’s vice president of business development. “MAPEI has been an excellent resource for the Starnet membership in several key installation processes, including surface preparation, moisture mitigation, adhesives, and tile and stone installation products. The Starnet membership satisfaction with MAPEI’s products and field service representatives continues to be outstanding.”

“We are proud of our role in these winning projects,” said Carol Hould, MAPEI’s national sales director. “They highlight the importance of our partnerships and our collaborative work, and the value they provide. We are honored by the recognition.”
