VertaStone™ is an innovative three-component series of admixtures and surface treatments designed to transform regular low slump concrete into a form-free, slow-setting concrete that can be carved, stamped, or formed to mimic realistic stonework.

VertaStone™ consists of three components - Wall Aid, Slow Set, and Easy Slick. Wall Aid is a modified mid-range plasticizing admixture that allows higher early strength formation by reducing water demand. Slow Set is a set retarding admixture that provides added thickness to the mix, enabling concrete stacking without form support and extending the final set times. Easy Slick is a surface finishing treatment that extends tooling time and allows delayed hydration for final stamping and texturizing needs.

A: - VertaStone™ allows the placement of free-standing walls without the need for additional formwork or support structures.

• Walls created using VertaStone™ can be carved, stamped, and stained to replicate realistic natural stone formations.
• It offers great labor savings compared to traditional cast retaining walls, as it allows for form-free pouring.
• Cast walls made with VertaStone™ are monolithic in structure and more resistant to movement or blowout than walls made of individual CMUs or actual stones.
• You can customize and colorize walls to match or enhance the natural surroundings or buildings.
