Acme Brick Company Debuts New Mobile App for Homebuyers, Architects and Builders

Words: Bronzella Cleveland

Acme Brick VisionA new, free app – Acme Brick Vision – from Acme Brick Company allows users to view Acme's brick product line on both residential and commercial building elevations, or as a brick sample in a close up view. The application lets the user pick an elevation, put his or her choice of brick on the building, and change variables such as mortar color, trim paint color, and roof color. With Acme Brick Vision, the company says, it is possible to create more than one million unique combinations of brick, mortar, roof and trim colors.

The Material Close Up option shows a brick wall section with different mortar colors. Both views can be enlarged to a full-screen view tailored to the viewer's iPad model, and saved to the user's camera roll. Brick selections can be searched by name, size, or by color families. For each product listing, viewers can scroll to a detail page that provides a full set of technical specifications for that brick product.

Acme Brick Vision enables consumers and building professionals to view and compare brick and mortar color selections and view them on site or wherever they have access to the Internet. This ability to view and compare selections indoors or out, at a moments notice will make the brick and mortar selection process more efficient and accurate, Acme claims. The Acme Brick Vision can be downloaded at the Apple app store at https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/acme-brick-vision/id636974483?mt=8.
