Stucco

In 1990, SPEC MIX® came to the masonry industry with an innovative idea: Streamline the "traditional" jobsite mixing process with factory produced, high performance products and silo delivery systems. Since then, SPEC MIX® has grown into more than just a provider of preblended mortar. Now an industry leader, SPEC MIX® is an organization of 42 manufacturers with distribution to nearly every market in the United States, delivering more than 1.5 million tons of material each year, nationwide!

Our mix design technology, product research and development have kept our products at the top of industry standards. A champion for the masonry industry overall, SPEC MIX® has been a crux for change to keep the industry growing strong well into the future. This commitment to the industry, as well as to our customers, has made SPEC MIX® the premier source for construction products and material delivery systems available.

Products

A quality stucco combined with fine craftsmanship results in a building or home of enduring beauty. SPEC MIX's preblended stucco is specifically formulated to minimize shrinkage and reduce cracking. SPEC MIX® also eliminates the inconsistencies, especially in colored finishes. The computer-batching process ensures that materials are consistent from bag to bag, so you know the color will be the same from start to finish. If a project requires specific performance requirements, customized mixes can be formulated by our Engineering Services Center.
