Our Technology

Shear Resistance

Retaining wall units are engineered with open cores in the center of the block that are filled with drainage aggregate during installation. This design forms continuous stone columns the entire height of the wall, significantly increasing block to block shear resistance and enhancing the wall’s stability during and after construction.

Max Core Technology

Engineered with Max Core ™ Technology, this retaining wall block delivers unmatched strength and performance while weighing nearly half as much as traditional segmental retaining wall units. Its advanced design meets and exceeds industry standards. Max Core ™ Technology makes blocks easier to handle without compromising structural integrity – a smarter, more efficient solution on the jobsite.
