The Eco Brick

Liam Collins' Eco Brick is a building material made from plant based, sustainable and fully recyclable materials and has been developed especially for large, load bearing walls.

​

Designed for a long life time, similar to historical building materials it actually gets harder with age. Unlike cement, recycling or re-utilisation is easy. Our bricks can be demolished, powdered and reconstituted for production as a brick or hemp-mortar, avoiding landfill completely. The brick is not fired but air dried, equating to very low energy production contrasted with other conventional materials.

​

The brick possesses several special qualities from thermal to acoustic/bio-climatic properties, and as it consists of natural raw materials; vegetable material, and mineral bonding agents with recycled materials, it is highly recommended for architects and owners who want to build environmentally responsible homes with comfortable and healthier spaces.
