About Fluted Block

The rugged yet streamlined look of Echelon’s Fluted Block features vertical scores that are molded with two concrete block units attached face to face, then mechanically split apart to create a split rib concrete block appearance.

The finished unit delivers the natural variation of Split Face masonry with the added impact of a unique vertical or horizontal striation and are ideal for any structural masonry application.
