Architectural Concrete Block

Architectural Block is generally used to describe Concrete Masonry Units (CMU) that are produced in a number of standard colors or in a custom designed color.

 

These CMU's also normally incorporate a split face, ribbed, and/or scored surface that make them especially suited for many types of exterior wall applications. In addition to the inherent beauty obtained through the combination of color and texture.

Architectural Block Units:

  • Eliminate the need to budget for expensive long term surface rehabilitation

  • Prevent many types of vandalism that create unsightly blemishes to a building's exterior and interior wall surfaces

  • Provide protection from severe weather

  • Are proven construction products that afford the strength and durability of traditional concrete masonry

  • Can be used as a single width wall unit providing a finished surface for both the exterior and interior if desired
