TYPE S


Our mortar mix on Vail's Solaris was so consistent, every bag was like the next. And the next. And the next.


When contractors were asked to create a new level of luxury at Vail's premier address, QUIKRETE materials helped make Solaris Residences a reality. To create one of the Solaris' key architectural features its dry-stack natural stone walls crews used 80 pound bags of QUIKRETE Mason Mix Type "S" Mortar and Core-Fill Grout-Coarse. Because both products come pre-blended, they assured consistency, saved time and eliminated waste.
