BONSAL CARIBBEAN LIMITED 

Quality does not materialize out of thin air, it is derived from the desire to continuously improve and requires investment in technology, takes effort, experience and the competence to do things the right way each and every time. 

Today, most consumers are more aware of quality as a major criterion in making a decision to purchase something than they were two or three decades ago. Less than three decades ago in Trinidad and Tobago, ceramic tiles were laid with ordinary sand 

and cement mortar. Today they are laid with specialty mortars, called Thin Sets, which contain special  additives to improve the characteristics of the mortar which make the laying and setting of tiles easier for the Tile Layer and results in a more professional and longer lasting job. The consumer is also assured that the tiles which have been laid with a quality thin set will not pop up or dislodge and will provide a durable finished floor that is virtually maintenance free and can last several decades.   

Of course, there are thinsets and then there are quality thinsets. Most tile layers will tell you that the “imported” thin sets are far superior to the locally manufactured thin sets. There are basic reasons for this, which come down to the opening statement in this article – Quality is derived from the desire to continuously improve and requires investment in technology, and takes effort, experience and the competence to do things the right way, each and every time – and this is exactly what BONSAL CARIBBEAN LIMITED is about. As the fully licensed manufacturer for PROSPEC, it is the only manufacturer in the Caribbean with over 100 years of expertise at its disposal. 

“This expertise has been expressed in the investment in technology made in setting up a modern plant, which can supply the entire Caribbean region. The General Manager of BONSAL CARIBBEAN LIMITED who has over 28 years experience in manufacturing, has been trained at the PROSPEC plant in Pompano, Florida which is one of 21 plants operating in the U.S. He has direct links to the qualified experienced staff at PROSPEC for all the technical competence necessary to ensure quality, time after time.  In addition, he also holds certification from the Ceramic Tile Education Foundation (a Division of the Tile Council of North America) in Tile Inspection.”

BONSAL CARIBBEAN LIMITED started manufacturing operations in July 2003 at our facilities in the O’Meara Industrial Estate in Arima with sufficient room for future development at the site. Our products are manufactured to stringent international standards and are tested by PROSPEC to ensure conformity. All product offerings are premium quality and include floor thin sets for ceramic tiles, multi-purpose thin sets for ceramic, porcelain, quarry and marble tiles and a range of grouts and other associated products for preparation and maintenance of tiles. Although all BONSAL products are premium quality they are priced competitively and are available from select distributors locally in Trinidad & Tobago and Caribbean-wide.
