Field-Coat Sealing Enhances Appearance and Performance of Premier Ultra® Burnished Masonry Units

Sep 26, 2022

County Materials’ Premier Ultra Burnished Masonry Units are a high-performance masonry solution blending structural strength with elegance. 

Premier Ultra units are available in structural load-bearing and full and thin veneer options to offer unmatched design flexibility. 

Featuring finely ground aggregates on their surface, these integrally colored units are designed and manufactured to emulate hand-cut polished stone while providing enhanced durability and minimal maintenance. 

County Materials’ production process offers advantages for concrete masonry units in indoor and outdoor applications. CMUs are naturally resistant to mold, weather, and fire. Premier Ultra Burnished units are specified to be installed with a field-coat sealant which provides a consistent, homogenous seal that protects the units and the mortar joints from moisture and other elements. 

Field-sealed units are easier to clean than factory-sealed units and can be cleaned more thoroughly. Field sealing also preserves the appearance of the blocks by evenly filling in any scratches or dents resulting from transportation. These benefits have led the industry to adopt field sealing as the standard for concrete masonry construction. 

Sealants come in a variety of styles and finishes. To ensure the lasting performance of your masonry project, County Materials provides the sealant of your choice at no additional cost.
