First we had stone, then we had Terracotta with over 100 plants in the US alone, now there are only three, two in the US and one in the UK suppling primarily replacement units.
Consider the next transition is CastCotta, a cast unit, that has the decorative capabilities of Terracotta but is as easy to use as a CMU, with all the textures, shapes and glazes we have come to know, with similar ease of installation. CastCotta is identical in Form and Function to Terracotta, is 40% lighter than Terracotta and 80% lighter than precast. Architects, please consider the possibilities not only for replacement but primarily New Construction accent pieces. Other items including Brownstone, Limestone Granite and others are possible with CastCotta. CastCotta can provide this transition.
Contractors, with a 6 week delivery get your project back on schedule and consider CastCotta for your current or future projects.

This is a follow-up to my last podcast. If you say it can’t be done, it is true you can’t do it. But it doesn’t mean I cannot do it. How does this affect you, your current or next restoration project, and your bottomline?
From a previous podcast on SIP vs ROAR, Stabilize In Place rather than Rip Out And Replace, and the fact that less than five in a hundred structural engineers are true restoration engineers that can work within the fabric of the structure.
