more consistent product on a fast timeline. Most recently, Molin completed its final phase of implementation at the Facility with an automated surface treatment process using a CAD interface to appy the specified architectural texture to the panel surface. The available textures include a full range of exposures from a light etched finish to a heavy sandblasted or aggregate texture.

Molin’s automated finish process provides consistency unparalleled in the precast industry. Professionals from local design firms and contracting companies who have toured the facility leave with a renewed confidence and interest in using precast concrete wall panels.
