We are proud to have completed the manufacturing last year for 15,566 SF of precast rammed earth panels, adorning the exterior for the new Natural Resource Headquarters in Sacramento, CA. Check it out if you’re ever in our state’s capital!
Rammed Earth Works has been in transition after the passing of founder David Easton last year. We've been working closely with his son, Khyber, to ensure we carry on his legacy. We believe in the beauty & sustainability of this product and are looking forward to a bright future.
