NOTES: Alphacrete masonry units are manufactured using natural stonewhich can vary slightly in tone. Where possible it is advised to orderfrom the same production run to avoid the possibility of tonevariations (shading).

We also recommend that products are selected from at least threebales, within each delivery. This will eliminate 'banding'.

Like all quality concrete products with a high cement content,Alphacrete masonry units can display the effects of efflorescence.Sometimes known as ‘white bloom’, this naturally occurringphenomenon will disappear over time and does not effect thestructural integrity of the blocks.

Care should be taken when handling Alphacrete masonry units.During transport and delivery some ‘chipping’ (up to 5%) can beexpected. These can be used for cuts and detailing.

All faces can be exposed excluding the top and bottom of the unit.
