(Plattsburgh, February 7, 2006) – Graymont Materials continues to expand its profit centers by adding Redi-Rock, the largest and most popular retaining wall system in North America, to its arsenal of products.

     All Redi-Rock products capture the “Essence of Natural Rock”. Redi-Rock has developed its product line with attention to natural hardscapes and has thus developed a system that looks so natural that many mistake it for quarried stone. The system is ideal for leveling lots, shoreline protection, or expanding usable land space.

     Redi-Rock’s wall system utilize blocks weighing over 1 ton each. The massive scale of the system allows walls to be built much higher than other wall systems without using geogrid or tie-backs. Also, taller reinforced walls can be designed with our geo-connector.

     “This product is a natural fit for us,” says Graymont Materials, NY President Todd Kempainen. “With the specially-designed Redi-Rock forms, we’re able to use our expertise in pouring concrete to enter a completely different market. With the number of developments built on hills, or, on the water in this region, we think Redi-Rock will catch on very quickly.”
