MAPEI Ultracolor Plus FA Alabaster #5001 is a premium all-in-one grout designed for homeowners, contractors, and designers who want a clean, consistent grout color with dependable performance. This 10-lb bag offers a soft alabaster tone that works beautifully with porcelain, ceramic, glass, stone, mosaic, and many other tile surfaces.
Instead of choosing between sanded and unsanded grout, Ultracolor Plus FA is made for joint widths from 1/16 inch to 3/4 inch, helping simplify your tile installation while delivering a smooth, professional-looking finish.
This grout is a smart choice for tile projects where durability, color consistency, and easier maintenance matter. It offers high stain resistance with no sealing required, making it especially useful for kitchens, bathrooms, showers, floors, walls, backsplashes, and wet-area tile installations.
MAPEI Ultracolor Plus FA is also rapid-setting, allowing many installations to be ready for foot traffic in approximately 3 to 4 hours. Its non-shrinking, efflorescence-free formula helps create long-lasting grout joints with a clean finished appearance.
MAPEI Ultracolor Plus FA Alabaster #5001 can be used for residential and commercial tile projects on both floors and walls. It is suitable for many tile materials, including dimensional stone, slate, granite, stone agglomerates, ceramic tile, ceramic mosaics, quarry tile, brick pavers, porcelain tile, glass tile, and clay tile.
The soft alabaster color is ideal when you want a light grout shade that blends gently with neutral tiles or creates a subtle contrast with darker tile designs. It is a versatile option for bathroom floors, shower walls, kitchen backsplashes, laundry rooms, entryways, commercial spaces, and outdoor tile applications.
For corners, changes of plane, and movement joints, do not forget to pair your grout with a color-matched MAPEI caulk. Using a matching caulk helps create a finished, coordinated look while allowing flexibility where grout should not be used.
Using this MAPEI product may help contribute to LEED certification of projects. Always follow current manufacturer installation instructions for mixing, application, cleaning, cure times, and approved uses.
Due to variations in installation methods, grout selection, lighting conditions, photography, and monitor settings, the final installed appearance may differ from images shown. Tile Choices recommends reviewing the product color and installation requirements before making a final selection.
