Liteblok™

Liteblok is a precision molded, interlocking, mortarless concrete building block that requires little skill to lay. Other significant features of Liteblok include the following:

  • Cost effective: speed and ease of construction mean significant cost savings
  • Insulating: air pockets provide great sound and thermal insulation
  • Lightweight: reduces foundation requirements and freight
  • Long lasting, sustainable, non-toxic "green" product
  • Simple to use: stack without mortar, are self-aligning, take regular nails, and can be cut with a hand saw. Also, vertical holes in blocks allow for electrical wiring and plumbing.
  • Strong: resistant to high winds and seismic activity
  • Vermin, mold, and termite resistant
  • Versatile: double walls, ledges, and molded-in-place fixtures are easy

The patented interlocking design and the cellular concrete used in the manufacture of Liteblok are entirely unique. During construction, reinforced steel (rebar) and grout are introduced into some of the holes within the blocks to form columns. It is these columns that provide the support for the structure. The structure essentially represents a basic column and beam system with the columns and beams being made out of materials that structural engineers are already familiar with.

There are two block sizes available, the standard five inch thick and the new eight inch thick Grande. We also offer two standard densities of the Liteblok building block. The first, Liteblok 38, is lightweight and has very good insulating properties. This block is intended for those applications requiring thermal insulation or a low density. Our Liteblok 69 is a heavier block and is targeted at applications where abrasion resistance is important and thermal insulation and light weight are less of a priority. Besides our standard Liteblok versions, it is also possible for us to provide custom solutions including different surface textures, densities, colors, and sizes.

If you need a contractor, engineer, or architect, please Contact Us, we would be happy to refer one to you.

Liteblok 38

This block is intended for home construction and other applications where light weight and thermal insulation are important.
