Beautiful, Economical, and Fast
Brick Snaps® inlay system is a revolutionary way to integrally cast thick brick into precast or tilt-up concrete in a way that can save a business money and time while also producing a superior structure.
In 1971, Scott System introduced a variety of methods that is successful in integrally-casting thin brick into concrete.
Since then, we have continued to improve these methods of producing brick-embedded concrete by making our products easier to install, more cost-effective, and readily available.
Alternatives, such as solid brick masonry, have a considerably higher cost and take much longer to install. Solid bricks are also poor insulators, which means more cost in utilities.
