The World Leader in Product
Development |
|
|
Techo-Bloc was founded in 1989 with the goal
of designing and manufacturing hardscaping
products such as paving stones, retaining
wall systems and masonry stones that blend
more seamlessly and harmoniously with the
natural environment. With our innovations
in both design and application, Techo-Bloc
has transformed science into art, elevating
paving stones and masonry products from ordinary
to elegant.
For nearly two decades, our product development
has been committed to beautifying the continent
one landscape at a time. Today, our three
facilities in Canada and our new state-of-the-art
plant in Pennsylvania continue this commitment
to creativity and quality, paving our way
across North America affordably and artistically.
Timeline:
Techo-Bloc has changed the face of an
industry with our expertise and excellence
in product development, recording more
than a dozen patents. Here is just a sample
of our ground-breaking achievements:
1995 –1996:
We introduce the world’s first tumbled
interlocking retaining-wall system, Creta
(Patent #2,114,677). In addition, we create
the industry’s first pre-cast antiqued
curbstone, Pietra, as well as the Tetra
paving stone, North America’s first
tumbled jumbo-size paving stone.
1997:
The world’s first commercial replica
of ancient cobblestone, Allegro, is introduced
(Patent #2,214,295).
1998:
Our Belgik curbstone becomes the first
manufactured replica of authentic Belgian
block.
1999:
Elena, the first modular paving stones
to be offered in one single pallet, is
engineered and marketed.
2001:
Techo-Bloc renders the existing method
of drum-tumbling obsolete. Our new technology
prevents product breakage, eliminates
the time-consuming sorting of stones,
and eradicates the cement slurry from
the pavers’ surfaces. This revolutionary
technique results in a product unsurpassed
in quality, beauty, and durability.
2002:
With the introduction of Quarry Stone,
we offer the world its first retaining
wall stone with a hand-chiseled and handcrafted
appearance. (Patent #2,392,934).
2004:
We bring our Canadian innovations to the
U.S. The most sophisticated and technologically
advanced pavers and retaining wall production
plant opens in Pen Argyl, Pennsylvania.
2005:
Techo-Bloc produces the first rugged, high
relief paving stone, Santorini. With its strategically
accentuated elevations and impressions, this paver
provides a bold, hand-hewn look, enhancing any landscape
design.
2006:
Techo-Bloc makes radical changes in retaining-wall
technology. By engineering a new anchoring
system, our Monumental Blok can be used
to create walls twelve feet high without
the use of geogrid. The result is a structure
that appears handcrafted by the finest
of artisans, rather than mechanically
erected by backhoe or small bulldozer.
These giant stones make a truly monumental
impact on any property, residential or
commercial.
As we enter the last years of this century’s
first decade, we invite you to enjoy not
only the quality, beauty, and dependability
forged in the years past, but to experience
the excitement and excellence of the years
to come. |
