Featured Project

Mead Johnson

Location:

444 W. Lake Street

For the high-performance circulation areas of the Mead Johnson space at 444 W. Lake Street, MTH delivered a seamless cementitious self-leveling topping. Our process began with rigorous surface preparation, including shot-blasting and specialized primer application, to ensure a perfect bond.

Through careful installation and technical precision, we achieved a striking, durable finish that met all performance specifications without the need for additional topcoats.

When high-traffic environments require architectural refreshes, MTH provides engineered flooring solutions that balance durability with design. For the prefunction area at The Renaissance Hotel, MTH implemented a sophisticated floor restoration using hybrid concrete mix design paired with a pigmented epoxy coating and a matte-finish urethane topcoat.

The result is a revitalized, high-performance surface that meets the aesthetic demands of a premier urban hotel.
