Arriscraft, manufacturer of naturally-made products that emulate quarried stone, has launched its newly redesigned website, which among other things, provides numerous design ideas to inspire both homeowners and building professionals.
“Our newly refreshed site has been crafted to be even more user-friendly than previous versions. And with its upgrades, we now offer many creative ideas and unique opportunities for customers which incorporate our full bed and thin masonry, brick, and limestone,” says Marta Zonneveld, Marketing Manager of Arriscraft. “We are excited to reintroduce our website and use it as a key tool for informing and inspiring homeowners, architects and designers.”
The new Arriscraft website is designed to give consumers easy access to its vast library of design images, product information and support. It has one of the most comprehensive selections of technical information in the industry – Literature, Data Sheets, Installation Instructions, Hatch Patterns, Seamless Textures, Specification sheets & Technical Bulletins and Documents. Arriscraft made the site interactive by integrating social media with its content… making images and information “shareable” via social share buttons.
The new website, www.Arriscraft.com, also includes a gallery of both residential and commercial projects installed throughout North America. Photos range from healthcare and multi-family to private entryways and educational institutions. “We’re proud of our high-quality photography, and believe they give visitors to our site excellent examples of just what can be done with our product lines,” added Zonneveld.
Key features of the site include an engaging and compelling user experience with video, extensive product and installation images… and, much more. The site provides links to Arriscraft’s AIA/CES Continuing Education Units, CADD Drawings and also introduces its online “Building Stone Calculator,” an easy-to-use tool for estimating material requirements.
Very importantly, the site has a responsive platform that intuitively adapts content for optimal viewing across all devices, including desktops, laptops, tablets and smartphones.
Arriscraft is the stone products group of General Shale, the North American subsidiary of Wienerberger AG and a leading manufacturer of brick, one of the world’s oldest green building materials.
Arriscraft’s Natural Process technology uses only natural materials (plus color pigments) and replicates how stone is created in the earth. This patented process creates stone with the natural aesthetics and durability of quarried stone, plus the convenience of standard installation and unlimited supply.
