Unique Industries Selects The Silver Tier In The Masonry Alliance Program

Words: Dan Kamys

Unique Industries, manufacturer of innovative Kem-O-Kleen hot water systems for new masonry and restoration cleaning, has joined the Silver Tier in the Masonry Alliance Program. As part of this commitment, Unique Industries becomes one of just 70 companies to receive unparalleled access to the $33 billion masonry industry.

"We continue to support the masonry industry and MCAA, now through the MAP program, as we have for over 50 years, with quality equipment enabling contractors to clean better and more quickly without painstaking rubbing and scraping.  We look forward to continuing and increasing mutual support of MCAA members to continue," said Ron Baer from Unique Industries.

Availability for verbal commitments in the Masonry Alliance Program is now open to any interested company. The MCAA has recently launched a dedicated website, masonryalliances.com, with full details on the program. Starting in 2024, the MAP replaces Strategic and Corporate Partnerships as the only way for active suppliers to remain involved in MCAA activities. 

"Unique Industries has been a longtime supporter of MASONRY Magazine. It’s excellent that they see value in increasing their involvement through the Masonry Alliance Program. It’s our goal for our advertisers to deepen their engagement in our Association through the MAP," said Dan Kamys, MCAA Director of Content. 

The Masonry Alliance Program is broken into four tiers: Cornerstone, Platinum, Gold, and Silver. Items such as event attendance, advertising in MASONRY Magazine, sponsorships, content development, and more will no longer be available to any company outside of the 70 within this program.
