Because of their natural textured appearance, Athenia® Split Face are one of Midwest's most popular architectural unit finishes.
The process of splitting a block means no two units are exactly alike, which results in a unique building appearance. Split Face masonry can be load-bearing or used as a veneer. Athenia blends well with Midwest's other architectural block finishes.
Benefits
Units exceed ASTM C-90. Higher strength units allow for more efficient structural designs.
Recommend all units be manufactured with proper dose of integral admixture for water repellency and test units to ensure performance.
All units are shipped on pallets. The pallets are wrapped and labeled to ensure units are clean and dry and to reduce potential chippage.
