Cast stone product reuses glass cullet

August 25, 2010

CastStone22 from Edwards Cast Stone Co. is a cast stone product containing 22 percent recycled material. The building material—manufactured from glass cullet aggregate, Portland cement, additives, and color pigments—simulates natural limestone.

It generally is used as a masonry product, an architectural feature, trim, ornament, or facing for buildings and other structures. The material typically displays high resistance to abrasion. Reduced drying shrinkage also often is observed for mixes containing glass cullet aggregate.

The product comes in several standard and custom colors and shapes.
