Locally made across Minnesota, concrete block’s sustainability advantage starts at the source. Its manufacturing process uses less cement and water, which cuts emissions right from the beginning.

Concrete block is manufactured with a hollow-core structure that allows for optimized designs. This increases efficiency while using fewer raw materials. Puget Sound Business Journal.

The project has 20,000 square feet of natural ground and standard CMU. The design team took a unique approach to the old use of CMU block by using two suppliers and four different types of blocks.
