Architectural CMUs provide an economic alternative to traditional veneer cladding materials with the advantage of through-the-wall load bearing capabilities. Utilitarian simplicity that has evolved into a designer's smorgasbord of texture, style, scale and color is limited only by one's imagination. Long recognized for the benefits of their mass, Architectural CMUs are easily insulated and reinforced making them the material of choice when designing commercial and industrial facilities.
