Millenia Wall Solutions, developer of the Millenia Retaining Wall System, announced it has named RidgeRock Retaining Walls Inc. as its exclusive dealer in North and South Carolina and southern Virginia.
"Big changes in construction materials don't come along too often. Millenia has come up with the first major technological development in retaining walls in a very long time. By fulfilling the demand for high-end aesthetics and earth-friendly materials, Millenia establishes a new niche in the SRW product mix between concrete blocks and real stone," said James S. Martin, president, RidgeRock Retaining Walls Inc. "Millenia is becoming a design-specified material by architects and engineers -- particularly for walls that are prominent landscaping features. That's why we are offering the Millenia system as an alternative to our concrete products."
"RidgeRock is well known for its commitment to meeting the design and engineering requirements of its contractor customers," said Paul Forsberg, president, Millenia Wall Solutions. "Jim Martin's decision to supplement his product line with our system signals that there is market demand for a new SRW alternative."
Millenia produces its wall products in 100-percent recycled, pre-consumer polymeric resins. "Millenia gets closer to the look of a real stone wall than any other material I've seen," said Martin. "With concrete, given the limitations of the material and inflexibility of the dry-cast process and machinery, you just can't get the detail that Millenia achieves."
Millenia Wall Solutions takes precise impressions of natural stone faces and quarried stone from which it creates the molds used to produce its retaining wall faces and caps. Injection molding gets the pliable polymer material into all the details of the molds and captures the nuances of natural stone and quarried rock. Each style of the product is produced in five different patterns, so the faces of a Millenia wall have natural variations.
