ABOUT UNILOCK

As the industry leader in manufactured pavers and walls, Unilock has built its success by understanding customers deeply, and providing them with innovative new products and technologies that make a tangible difference in the projects they build. Whether it is unique design, superior long-term performance, or improvements that make products more efficient to install, Unilock has led the way. Our founder, Ed Bryant, began this company in 1972, when he brought the concept of manufactured paving stones to North America, effectively launching an entirely new industry. Back then, he approached the business with a philosophy of interconnectedness; not just in the interlocking UNI-Stone that was sold, but the interconnectedness of people, products, passions and trades. Today, although the company has grown exponentially, with five regional offices and seventeen manufacturing plants in the U.S. and Canada, it remains family owned and Ed's legacy of entrepreneurial spirit combined with a unique family culture lives on in each of us.
