Artificial Rock

Rockwerx has over 12 years experience building natural looking rock sculptures for climbing.  Over those years we are often asked to step out of the world of climbing and build natural looking rock features for other applications.  As time has passed we have had more request for this line of work and are working on a division that will focus on these markets.  Weather it is a water feature, park amenity or themed construction we can provide you with a complete turn-key solution.  Our process starts with a 3D model that will allow you to visualize the final product and also allows you to understand how it will fit and function in the area. 

We can design a feature that is based on your vision and ideas.  Our lightweight artificial rock can be freestanding or affixed to existing structural members.  Our artificial stone provides the appearance and longevity of natural stone without the weight or cost associated with it. 

Our Natural Rock is the most durable and realistic artificial surface in the industry. The surface is a composite polymer with fiberglass backing. Our rock surface is protected under US Patent. The patented process provides a UV stable surface that looks new long past the 5 year warranty. Our product is not affected by extreme climate change and will withstand freeze / thaw cycles unlike the way that the harder (brittle) concrete based GFRC product will. Chemicals and water minerals will not affect the surface or color of the rock. Unlike other products, our surface will not leach, lime or display calcium buildup. It is inert and will resist the buildup of algae and other organic growth. In fact you can power wash the wall up to 2500 psi. If for some reason a piece of wall chips it will look exactly the same because the color is infused throughout. Our rock surface is super lightweight which allows us to create super angles and features that could not be reproduced with heavier products.  The rock surface has been wind rated up to 210 MPH and ASTM tested with a comprehensive strength of 17,000 psi.

Our natural molding process can be customized to reproduce almost any design or moldable feature.

 Please feel free to contact us, we would love to help turn your ideas into reality.
