Eco-brick®

An ecological revolution

The same aesthetic result and quality but less material, a better ecological footprint and more living space compared to a traditional facing brick? Yes, this is all reality with our Eco-brick®.

The narrower format of the Eco-brick® enables the CO2 footprint to be reduced by approx. 20 - 55% per square meter of facade. With the Eco-brick®, we create more living space, save weight and still have all the quality features and performance advantages of classic facing bricks.

Clay roof tiles on the facade

A perfect whole

Clay roof tiles have been successfully protecting buildings from wind and weather for centuries. Wienerberger knows that too.

As experts, we are now going one step further and are using roof tiles as expressive design elements on the facade. We are thus following the current architectural trend towards ceramic facade elements. The rear-ventilated facade system is architecturally a particularly expressive style and design element that optimally combines design, functionality and sustainability.

Roof tiles on the facade offer many advantages for innovative roofers: They represent a very inexpensive facade variant and are quick and easy to assemble. The nail holes in the roof tiles can be punched through at the factory for installation on request, so that the facade is quickly and securely fixed.
