Paving the Future Scholarship

Ed Bryant is remembered as founder of the Unilock Group of Companies and the pioneer who first established a paver manufacturing site in North America in 1972. His passion, collaboration and innovative spirit brought an ecosystem of partners together to kick-start the hardscaping industry - Manufacturers, Dealers, Architects, Installers, and Sales Teams – all working to pave the way forward in a completely undefined space. Ed’s vision of building the industry in a way that benefits many drives us to continue to invest in the communities to which we belong.

The Unilock Paving the Future Scholarship commemorates Ed’s legacy by investing in a new generation of landscape design, architecture, and construction leaders. This scholarship program recognizes students in their final year of study who are active members in their community and demonstrate an ambition of being a thought leader in the landscaping industry of tomorrow.

Since 1972, Unilock has built a remarkable legacy of transformation, proudly leading North America in hardscape and paver manufacturing. Built on over 50 years of innovation, from our original trademarked paver, Uni-Stone, to cutting-edge offerings like Elegance, U-Cara, and Umbriano, our products have redefined both function and aesthetics.Along the way, we’ve established connections with the very best designers, dealers, and installers, providing them with an endless canvas of materials, tools, and business support.

With over 10 billion stones on the ground, our mission is clear: we are deeply committed to the hardscape industry, the dealers who distribute our products to our customers, the homeowners who purchase our products, the landscape design community who transform public spaces and the contractors who make it possible to put all the pieces together.
