Mortar Net®
Mortar Net USA, we invent solutions. We've won multiple U.S. patents for our low-cost systems that effectively prevent moisture-buildup in masonry walls. These simple to install systems let interior moisture drain to the outdoors, unimpeded by mortar-droppings or debris. Eliminating moisture-buildup, also helps eliminate efflorescence and freeze/thaw damage.
Best of all, our systems help to deliver in the industry's long-fought battle against mold. With many insurance companies no longer covering mold claims, today's builders insist on our patented moisture-dispersal systems. They've discovered there's absolutely no "or equal" for Mortar Net, BlockNet, or Blok-Flash.
BlockNet®
When Mortar Net introduced BlockNet, World of Concrete acclaimed it the industry's "Most Innovative Masonry Product." BlockNet is a patented, easy-to-install system for preventing moisture-damage in single-wythe block walls. Once water has penetrated the wall, BlockNet's ingenious design captures moisture as it runs down the inside face of the block and channels it to the drainage-strips, then out through integrated drainage-tabs, keeping walls attractive and structurally sound.
