Shuttabloc™ Wall System

Shuttabloc™ Wall System
Proform offers the Shuttabloc™ Wall System, a patented precast solution for earth retention, bulk material storage, and building construction. Shuttabloc™ combines the technological performance of cast-in-place walls with the speed, efficiency, and cost-savings of precast manufacturing.

Fast, Cost-Effective Precast Wall Construction
The Shuttabloc™ system is designed to significantly reduce labor and eliminate the need for on-site forming typically required for cast-in-place cantilevered walls. Shuttabloc™ units are quickly erected, hollow-core precast elements that can withstand high loads and heavy impacts from construction or industrial equipment.

Units are available with either a smooth factory finish or a formliner texture, offering flexibility to meet aesthetic and functional project needs.

Versatile Wall System Features
Shuttabloc™ elements can be customized with:

  • A variety of manufactured heights to meet specific project demands

  • Hollow cores that can be filled or reinforced with concrete as needed

  • A continuous concrete wall system appearance without the drawbacks of full on-site construction

Only a concrete footing is required, streamlining installation and reducing total project timelines by up to 50%.

Key Benefits of Shuttabloc™
✔ Up to 50% faster installation compared to traditional cast-in-place walls
✔ Reduces labor and eliminates costly on-site formwork
✔ Durable, impact-resistant design for heavy-duty applications
✔ Customizable finishes for smooth or textured appearances
