Bangalore, 12th May, 2025: Kerakoll, a global leader in sustainable building solutions, has launched Fugalite Color, a next-generation resin grout that sets new standards in performance, aesthetics, and sustainability. This latest innovation builds on the success of the original Fugalite Color, first introduced in 2012, expanding from 28 to 50 trend-driven shades developed in collaboration with WGSN, the global authority on trend forecasting.
Traditionally, tile grout has been seen as a purely functional element, however Kerakoll’s Fugalite Color redefines this perception by offering a solution that combines exceptional durability, water resistance, and modern aesthetics.
“With Fugalite Color, we are redefining how grout is perceived—not just as a construction material, but as an integral part of design,” said Ahzam Javed, Regional Director-Asia Pacific at Kerakoll. “Our collaboration with WGSN ensures that we stay ahead of consumer trends, while our commitment to sustainability and safety makes this product a game-changer. The launch of our Jaipur facility further strengthens our ability to serve the Indian market with high-quality, trend-driven, and eco-friendly solutions.”
Abisanka Sinha, Head of Product Marketing at Kerakoll, added, “When we went back to the drawing board to develop the next-gen grout, we aimed to push boundaries-not only in performance but in how grout can elevate design. Fugalite Color is engineered for the entire ecosystem: safe to apply, highly durable, and visually flawless. It’s a design-forward solution that brings ‘style for every tile,’ aligned with Kerakoll’s values of sustainability and innovation.”
By combining high performance with trend-focused innovation, Fugalite Color empowers designers and homeowners to create cohesive, contemporary interiors that reflect evolving global aesthetics. As the only dermatologically tested organic grout in the market, it prioritizes the safety of applicators while delivering superior performance, making it the preferred choice for architects, designers, and homeowners seeking both functionality and style
To support its growth ambitions in India, Kerakoll has expanded its presence with a cutting-edge manufacturing facility in Jaipur. Spanning 51,000 sq. m, with a scalable plant size of 28,000 sq. m, this advanced unit is equipped with state-of-the-art technology to ensure high-capacity production and efficient nationwide distribution. The launch of Fugalite Color from this facility reinforces Kerakoll’s commitment to innovation and strengthens its position in India’s ₹1,800 Cr dispersion grout category, with an ambitious goal to capture a 10% market share by 2026.
