Remodelers Prefer Cultured Stone brand

Cultured Stone® manufactured stone veneer is the nation's most recognized, most used and highest quality brand, according to the results of the 2007 brand use study by BUILDER magazine and the 2006 survey by Masonry Construction. Additionally, the 2006 Remodeling magazine reader panel ranked Cultured Stone as the most preferred manufactured stone product for exterior siding. The results of these surveys are just a few of the many reasons the Cultured Stone brand lays claim to the tagline The Preferred Name In Stone™.

The Cultured Stone brand led the pack in each of the categories surveyed by both BUILDER and Masonry Construction magazines. Survey results showed 55 percent of those surveyed by BUILDER magazine were familiar with the Cultured Stone product, while only 35.5 percent were familiar with the next two leading competitors. Results from Masonry Construction magazine were 56 percent and 42.5 percent, respectively.

For eight consecutive years, those participating in the BUILDER study have selected Cultured Stone products as the brand most recognized and most used. Cultured Stone products top the list in quality and, since 2002, more builders have used it than the next two brands combined.

Remodeling readers' choice respondents were asked only one question. Those who took the survey chose Cultured Stone veneers more than three times as often as the next leading producers of manufactured stone with 46 percent of the votes.
