Burnished Concrete Masonry Units

Burnished concrete masonry units (CMU) mimic the look of polished granite at a fraction of the cost!

Burnished Blocks are manufactured by grinding the top surface off of a precision block face to reveal the aggregate matrix within the block. The installation of Burnished Block is similar to that of precision block, except that a sealer is usually applied afterwards to bring out the color of the aggregates.

  • For interior and exterior use
  • Available in most common precision block sizes and shapes
  • Custom aggregate blends available!
