Congratulation to the City of Grand Rapids, Michigan on their first green street. Atlas Avenue is the first street infiltrating stormwater from curb to curb in Grand Rapids. Using Pave Drain to infiltrate 250,000-300,000 gallons of stormwater per year. https://t.co/9YtQ8XddFW
Omni Block utilizes thermal mass properties to enhance a thermal efficiency advantage. It's reduced and offset cross-webbing and the addition of a middle lineal wall creates extended thermal paths which are effective in hot or cold conditions.
Our approach is to virtually eliminate organic materials in all insulated exterior walls which ultimately reduces energy consumption without sacrificing comfort!
The combination of insulation and effective thermal mass contribute to keeping the overall construction costs down. In addition to being visually appealing and cost-competitive, it is durable and requires minimal maintenance over the life of a building.

The beautiful Boston Seaport Self Storage building on E Street was built using the Omni System 12 in a burnished finish. View different photos of the building showcasing Omni Block’s structural block here: https://t.co/wSUOz1zmMN
Burnished Omni Block both sides (exterior and interior) and on the exposed edge at all door and window jambs. There is also no visible transition between the foundation and the vertical walls. Frank Lloyd Wright coined this "organic architecture." https://t.co/20tMOcN3hT
A product you can trust! These trusses are the same type of structural trusses that are used in large gymnasiums and other buildings that do not allow columns within the building.

How the electrical is installed and integrated into Omni Block is one of its major advantages. Standard electrical boxes may be configured and installed for every high voltage and low voltage situation or requirement.

Omni Block inventor, Denny Miller, demonstrates how to apply a base coat of joint compound directly over the block. A finish/texture coat is required then the wall can be primed and painted to exactly match other interior walls.

We are at the Michigan Energy Efficiency Conference and Exhibition in Novi today! Stop by and learn more about Omniblock and our other products. Thanks for hosting, DTE Energy & The Engineering Society of Detroit! #energyefficiency
Omni Block has developed two new products that exceed the demands of the structural community. Both the California 12 and System 10 maintain the same extended thermal path design but allow for more insulation and/or grout to achieve greater structural strength.
