Changing the World in Concrete Ways

About us

Aster Brands is comprised of four companies specializing in precast concrete manufacturing. From expertly engineered large block retaining walls to customized outdoor living spaces to time-saving light foundations, we're changing the world in concrete ways. Our licensed brands include: 🧱Redi-Rock, a large-scale commercial retaining wall system. 🪨Rosetta Hardscapes, a smaller-scale suite of landscape products including pavers, retaining walls, steps, and fire pits. 💡 Pole Base, a precast light pole base system for commercial site lighting. The values we hold dear today can be traced back to the lessons our founders passed on from their early days in business. They’re not unique to our work as we endeavor to live them out in our personal lives every day. 🥾 Lead the Way: We "make it better" by leading and being led, and by pursuing sound new ideas. 🏆 Never Give Up: When work becomes difficult we trust it's because it's work worth doing - no matter the challenge, we don't give up. ❤️ Make Time to Care: We generously attend to the needs of our families, coworkers, customers, and communities. Life and work are a gift. Therefore, we don't define people by what they can achieve or produce. We reject the idea that being constantly busy is the best way to live. Instead, we generously attend to the needs of our families, coworkers, and customers. People often tell us they dream of retiring in Northern Michigan but they never thought they could have a thriving professional career here. It’s possible!

    Last month, the Redi-Rock network lost a beloved member to cancer. Seth Clark was a partner at Signature Stone in the Denver area and worked there for 14 years providing Redi-Rock and various other products to the Colorado market. ❤️ His work has left a lasting impact on the infrastructure of Colorado. Over the course of his career, Seth and Signature Stone sold over 267,000 Redi-Rock blocks. To put that into perspective, that is: - Over 1.5 million square feet of wall face - 76 miles if the blocks are stacked on top of each other - Two times the vertical feet of elevation gain of all the fourteeners in Colorado combined Our purpose at Redi-Rock is to change the world in concrete ways and Seth did just that. Not only did he change the infrastructure in Colorado, but he changed the lives of our team. We all consider Seth a friend and we really miss him. To honor him, we’ll be sharing his projects from over the years. If you feel called, Signature Stone has set up a campaign to raise money to start a college fund for Seth’s son.

    Happy Aster-versary to Nate! Thanks for all you do!🥳✨ 🧡What's your favorite part about working for Aster Brands or your job? "I love working for Aster Brands because they have helped me reach my potential. I've been with the company for six years, and I still get to perform various tasks that challenge my technical skills and aptitude every day." 🤖What's a fun fact that people may not know about you? "I've been fortunate to have some amazing experiences in my life. In high school, I competed in an international underwater robotics competition in St. John's, Newfoundland, after my team won the USA regionals in Michigan. I've also been on missions trips where I helped build homes in Mexico and took care of orphans in Central America. Currently, I serve as vice president of my local church board." ✋What is your favorite thing to do in your free time? "In addition to my work at Aster Brands, I enjoy spending time with my wife and three young children on our property and out in nature here in northern Michigan! I also enjoy target shooting, rifle building, and bourbon hunting." #asterbrands #celebrate #anniversary #team

    It is with deep sadness and a heavy heart that we inform you of the passing of our cherished colleague and friend, Seth Clark. Seth was an integral part of Signature Stone in Greeley, Colorado where he served as a Partner. Seth has been a key part of Signature Stone’s success and a true leader in the Redi-Rock network. Seth passed away peacefully at his home on Monday, June 10, 2024, after a courageous battle with colon cancer. His dedication, professionalism, and infectious personality touched everyone who knew him. Seth's humor, kindness, and genuine care for others made him not only a remarkable colleague but also a dear friend to many. He is survived by his loving wife of 16 years, Mary Margaret Carter Clark, and their young son, Carter Seth Clark. Our hearts go out to them and Seth’s entire family during this incredibly difficult time. We know that Seth's memory will live on in the hearts of everyone who had the privilege of knowing him. In honor of Seth's legacy and his unwavering dedication to his family, the Signature Stone team has set up a GoFundMe campaign to support Seth’s son Carter's future education. Contributions to this fund will help ensure that Carter has the opportunities he deserves to pursue his dreams, just as Seth would have wanted.   Here at Aster Brands, we often discuss purpose. In business school, they teach that the purpose of business is to maximize shareholder value, which is a flawed concept. It's like saying the purpose of a human is to breathe. We believe our purpose is to change the world in a concrete way. This statement has obvious product implications, but we can make a tangible impact right now by investing in Seth Clark’s family. Aster Brands will start with a $5,000 gift to help send Carter to college. A quick story about Seth: He interviewed at Redi-Rock International before joining Signature Stone. We thought, "This guy is awesome, and given where he lives, we should connect him with Signature Stone." In hindsight, we missed out! Seth not only joined Signature Stone but also became an equity partner. His work has created numerous jobs that support families to this day. However, it is Seth’s character that truly stands out. We all consider Seth a friend, and we truly miss him. You can find more details and contribute to the campaign to send Carter to college here: https://gofund.me/e24d6843 A funeral service for Seth will be held on Monday, June 24, 2024, at CALVARY Church Golden, located at 1320 Arapahoe Street, Golden, CO 80401, at 10:00 AM. A reception will immediately follow the service, with a private family burial thereafter. We understand this news may come as a shock, and we are here to support each other through this difficult time. Please join us in remembering Seth and celebrating the incredible impact he had on our lives. Thank you for your understanding, support, and condolences. With heartfelt regards, The Redi-Rock and Signature Stone Teams

    Happy Aster-versary Mattie! Congratulations on your milestone! 🥳 💥 What's your favorite part about working for Aster Brands or your job? "MY TEAM! We're constantly trying to find ways to push the limits of marketing in our industry, and we have an incredibly good time doing it!" 💪 What's a fun fact that people may not know about you? "I used to be able to overhead squat my body weight—before kids, of course. I do not intend to try to do this again because I care about my elbows." 🚣♀️ What is your favorite thing to do in your free time? "When I get a little free time, I love rowing. I have a single sculling shell that I take out on Torch Lake. Someday, my goal is to row Torch from the North to the South end (19 miles) in one go." We adore you and are grateful for everything you do!✨ #anniversary #celebrate #thankyou #asterbrands #team
