THE ONLY GLAZED BLOCK
WHICH HAS WORKED OVER
30 YEARS FOR MORE JOBS
THAT CAN USE MASONRY

Spectra-Glaze units are the ONLY glazed block which have promoted masonry against competitive wall materials for 32 years. The ONLY glazed block with more than 3 decades of research and development designed to save you trouble and boost your profits. Spectra-Glaze units are the ONLY glazed block still functioning satisfactorily in both interior and exterior cost-saving walls nearly a third of a century old! Accept no substitute.

REALLY DIFFERENT,
REALLY MORE PROFITABLE
