When engineering and constructing a building, architects and designers have several factors to consider. Materials need to offer minimum maintenance, strong fire and wind resistance, be an effective barrier to sound and temperature, and offer versatile aesthetic options at an economic price point.
Time and time again, architects, builders, designers and construction professionals turn to masonry products to build robust and attractive buildings easily, and within their budget. For 75 years, County Materials has supplied industry leading masonry materials to contractors and builders across the country.
