Watershed Block
Watershed
Watershed Blocks are alternatives to building blocks made of recycled materials using less cement.
Watershed Materials has developed a technology to use up to 100% locally sourced recycled material as aggregate for an alternate masonry block. They use post-industrial recycled materials – without washing or intense processing – to produce masonry blocks. Watershed Materials technology incorporates no colorants, dyes, or artificial pigments. Surface finishes are not required, eliminating concerns over volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and other harmful coatings. The technology allows for natural clay found readily all over the planet to be turned into sustainable masonry products.
Within 250 mile radius of the San Francisco Bay Area. However, with carbon offset credits, it can be transported worldwide.
