First Las Vegas community built using carbon foot print reduction by Cind-R-Lite with CarbonCure™ Concrete Masonry Units

Chandler Park by KB Homes, is the first community to be built using CarbonCure™ Block by Cind-R-Lite. The CMU (Concrete Masonry Unit) produced for this project has recycled CO2 (a greenhouse gas) in every block. This CO2 permanently binds with the concrete block and can never escape.

Chandler Park is a gated residential community located in Southwest Las Vegas. The community is close to downtown Summerlin and near Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area.

The amount of CO2 recycled in the CMU used in the Chandler Park Residential Project is equivalent to the amount of CO2 sequestered in 29 tree seedlings grown for 10 years.The CO2 used for this project was captured from an oil refinery.

New Product – Shot Blast Block

Introducing Shot Blast, a new product from Cind-R-Lite Block Company.  A new way of showing off the inner beauty of a concrete masonry unit.  Our Shot Blast block runs through a process where the face is blasted off, exposing the beautiful aggregate inside. Shot blast is a great alternative to those looking for a flatter surface while still exposing the aggregate.
