WOC Sand Sculpture Captures Amerimix "Ditch the Sand Pile" Campaign
Amerimix, part of the Echelon Masonry portfolio by Oldcastle Architectural, is embarking on an educational campaign which encourages masonry professionals to “Ditch the Sand Pile” and embrace the numerous benefits of pre-blended mortar, which can be mixed 50 percent faster and provide economic and time advantages on the jobsite compared to field mixing, officials said.
Field mixing requires cement and lime to be mixed with sand (usually in a pile), all while eyeballing the right combination, without clumping or having that pile compromised by weather or environmental factors.
