Verti-Block Retaining Blocks offer a high degree of flexibility in their application. They can be used in various types of projects, ranging from residential to commercial landscapes. Their design allows for versatile use in different settings.
Despite their large size, Verti-Block’s are 50% lighter than solid blocks of comparable dimensions. This feature makes them more manageable during installation and reduces the overall weight of the wall structure.
