Concrete Form Liners
Architectural Polymers' concrete form liners create textured surfaces for pre-cast and tilt-up projects. Made from durable elastomeric urethane, these liners ensure precise detail across 75+ patterns, including stone, wood, and rhythmic designs. Reusable up to 100 times, they reduce waste and costs while meeting PCI standards for structural integrity and aesthetics.
Thin Brick Inlay Systems
Our thin brick inlay systems combine traditional masonry aesthetics with modern efficiency. Partnering with MetroBrick and General Shale, we offer single- and multi-use form liners that streamline installation for schools, hospitals, and commercial buildings. This system reduces labor and material costs while maintaining compliance with precast industry standards.
Photo Engraved Form Liners
Transform images into tactile concrete art with our photo-engraved form liners. Ideal for memorials, sound walls, and public spaces, these liners capture intricate details without requiring paint or stain. The flexible material ensures easy demolding, preserving design integrity while supporting sustainable construction practices.
Concrete Art Panels
Custom concrete art panels merge functionality with artistic expression. Used in highway projects, schools, and cultural institutions, these panels incorporate textures, graphics, and regional heritage themes. Our team collaborates with architects to create site-specific installations that enhance community identity and architectural appeal.
Terra Cotta for Precast
Architectural Polymers' terra cotta systems offer lightweight, durable cladding for precast and tilt-up construction. Compliant with PCI absorption and dimensional standards, these tiles feature self-cleaning properties via titanium dioxide coating. The HT-coated surface decomposes pollutants, ensuring long-term aesthetic and environmental performance for commercial facades.
