The finish changes the appearance

Each clay brick is produced in a unique way. After bringing the raw materials together, the lumps of clay are shaped to the desired sizes and then fired. By way of a finishing touch, they are then finished off to give them the look that you see in the complete product..

Clay bricks: a sustainable choice

We use river clay in our clay mixtures, officially a renewable raw material. The river deposits more clay than we extract as an industry. Extracting the clay from the floodplains of rivers helps to enhance river water safety and reduce the risk of flooding.

The excavation helps to create a new and varied natural landscape that becomes home to countless plants and animals. It’s the clay brick industry's way of contributing to and preserving our ecosystem.
