With a new year and decade just around the corner, it’s time for the annual gaze into the Acme Brick home design crystal ball.
For more than 125 years, Acme Brick has been “the best thing to have around your house.” Now, the “best” has gotten better. Acme Brick is expanding into other home improvement products and you can get in on the ground floor! Literally. The same, incomparable quality that Acme has been known for in its brick is now available in flooring.

Since 1891, Acme Brick has been manufacturing these almost indestructible building blocks!
