Precast Finishes, Textures & Colors

Knife River offers a wide range of precast artistically developed finishes, textures and colors for your project. With our patented graphic technology, we create patterns and interesting textures, 3D effects, and an unlimited array of images. Finishes include form finish, acid etching, sandblasting, integral color, board form, form liners, thin brick, and graphic concrete. At Knife River, our finishes make durable and maintenance-free eye-popping statements or subtle backdrops.
