What is Roman Cypress?
Roman Cypress is an innovative retaining wall system that elevates the traditional CypressStone® design. Through a specialized tumbling process, each block attains a weathered, time-worn appearance that closely resembles natural stone. This unique finish makes Roman Cypress an attractive choice for homeowners and professionals seeking a blend of durability and classic aesthetics.
Key Features of Roman Cypress
- Natural Weathered Appearance: The tumbling process softens edges and corners, giving the blocks a rustic, stone-like look.
- Versatile Design Options: Suitable for curved walls, straight walls, and steps, allowing for creative landscape designs.
- Complete System: Includes corner units and coping stones for a seamless and professional finish.
- Structural Strength: Can be used for gravity walls up to 4 feet and reinforced walls up to 26 feet.
- Compatibility: Can substitute any CypressStone® system application, offering flexibility in design choices.
