A New Era of Concrete Masonry
It’s time to put block back on top, and the Concrete Masonry Checkoff is here to make that a reality. In 2021, a majority of concrete block producers made the game-changing decision to implement a national, mandatory checkoff that would exist for one reason: to drive demand for concrete masonry products.
Starting April 1, all concrete block producers are required by law to pay one penny per block sold to the Concrete Masonry Checkoff Board, consisting of concrete block producers from across the United States, for use to directly combat misperceptions around block on a national scale, while tackling local issues on a regional level. Investing these fractional funds now will pay huge dividends down the road.
To help block manufacturers communicate this upcoming change to customers, the Concrete Masonry Checkoff Board (CMCB) has developed the following resources:
