QUIKRETE Joins The Silver Tier Of Masonry Alliance Program

Words: Isa Stein

QUIKRETE®, a company that serves the Concrete, Masonry and Stucco Construction and Repair Industries providing reliable, cost effective Commercial Grade products throughout the United States, Canada, Puerto Rico and Central & South America, has committed to the Silver Tier of the Masonry Alliance Program. 

“As a construction materials’ leader, Quikrete is proud to continue our partnership with MCAA. A growing, progressive industry is extremely important and benefits all participants. While we compete against other members, in the end, we all have a vested interest in continuing to grow and drive preference for masonry,” said Patrick Lenow, Spokesperson at Quikrete.

The MCAA’s current Strategic and Corporate Partnerships will be phased out at the end of the year. The MAP’s four tiers: Cornerstone, Platinum, Gold, and Silver, will serve as the only way for active industry suppliers to remain involved in MCAA activities. Items like event attendance, sponsorships, advertising, and more will no longer be available outside of the program.

“QUIKRETE has been a longtime supporter of the MCAA through content, sponsorships, and more. We are looking forward to continuing our relationship with them in 2024 through our Masonry Alliance Program and our shared involvement in the industry,” said Todd Fredrick, MCAA Director of Development.

The Masonry Alliance Program’s four tiers are each capped. There are no plans to ever expand the capacity. Availability in the program is open to any interested company.

It is not unusual today for masonry to be treated as a surface decision rather than a structural one. Too often, brick enters a project late in the process, trimmed back by budgets or reduced to a veneer once the “real” building work is finished. The Tian
