Avanti Int’l Celebrates 40-Year Anniversary

Avanti 40th AnniversaryAvanti International is proud to announce that the company has reached a milestone, celebrating 40 years as an industry leader.

Founded in 1978, Avanti began with only one product, AV-100 Chemical Grout, used primarily to seal leaking sewer lines. Company owner and grouting industry pioneer David Magill was the integral leader who helped in developing industry wide standards and practices. Over the decade that followed, the company added its first urethane product, and held its first grout school training program.
