Award-Winning Murals & Innovation in Concrete Design
Spec Formliners has been honored with the ACG Reinvention Award — a recognition of the company's bold transformation and industry-leading innovation in concrete design. By pushing boundaries in aesthetics, technology, and service, the team has redefined what's possible in the formliner space.
This award marks a major milestone — and a nod to the hardworking crew turning concrete into conversation pieces.
Spec Formliners, led by founder Steve Deering, doesn't just shape concrete — it brings it to life. From seals and kelp on I-405 to grapevines in Napa, their molds turn infrastructure into art.
Based in Santa Ana, with projects across North America, the team starts with clay, scans real textures, and uses CNC tech to etch unforgettable scenes into sound walls and beyond.
Those sculpted walls along I-215 and Hwy 91? That's Spec Formliners behind the mold.
Working with Caltrans, we turn community-approved designs into detailed concrete murals using 3D CAD and precision tooling. Each mural panel is a blend of art, engineering, and storytelling — built to last, coast to coast.
