In-line concrete masonry and hardscape unit surface treatment/distressing specialist Equipment Design Group is now operating as Rusticator Machinery, with Bradley Price at the helm. Spun off from Rockwood Retaining Walls Inc., Rusticator Machinery maintains an Equipment Design Group division for engineering and plant installations.

The rebranding coincides with rollout of two new machines: ChiselPro, imparting an old world, chiseled look on block, retaining wall, veneer units and stone slabs; and, Agemaster, an accelerated paver aging machine that deploys the proprietary Fascia Impact System Hammer to yield a variety of tumbled effects. They join the manufacturer’s flagship in-line or off-line distressing models, the Rusticator and Rusticator DUO, installed in singled-sided or twin configurations.  --  www.rusticatormachinery.com
