We utilize the VDT (Vibrant Dry Tamp) production method. We produce stone by compressing earth moist zero-slump material against rigid formwork, until it is densely compacted and ready for immediate removal from the form.

The mix design consists of Portland cement and finely graded aggregates. Virtually any color can be achieved by the addition of iron oxide pigments.

The company started producing stone in 1995 in a small facility in central New Jersey. In January 2002 we relocated to our current 24,000 square foot manufacturing plant in Shamong, New Jersey.

Difficult projects are no match for our expertise and commitment.
Custom cast stone manufacturing is a labor intensive process that involves expert estimating, drafting, pattern making, production, packaging and shipping. All our cast stone is custom made for each and every project.

Every part of the manufacturing process is overseen by our own competent, experienced employees, assuring success from beginning to end. We specialize in producing stone for complex and intricate projects that require a level of expertise not available from other stone manufacturing companies.

Good for your project & safe for the environment
Concern for the environment prevents us from washing our stone with any kind of acid based cleaning solutions. After production, the stone may contain a film or residue that can only be removed with the use of a more powerful cleaning agent. We recommend cleaning with the same product used to clean all of the other masonry. Acid washing will enhance the color of Shelby Cast Stone by removing surface residue, which can also be achieved by the natural weathering process. Whether you clean the stone after installation or allow it to age naturally, the same beautiful results will follow.
