What are the differences between Poured and Hand-Formed Concrete?
Our traditionally Poured Concrete will show the movement of the concrete through the mold from the pouring process – we call this look “natural mottling.” The production capabilities of Poured Concrete allow for oversized and 3-dimensional designs to be achieved, such as slab lengths over 15 feet, integral backsplashes & end panels, and larger dropface edges. Recycled content can replace a portion of the aggregate and cement in our mix for less environmental impact (see LEED Point Qualification). Poured Concrete projects usually require a longer leadtime, and tend to be a bit pricier due to the complexity of design details.
