At our SA Block precast facility in Redan Gauteng, reclaimed clinker is used in the production process of cement building bricks as a replacement for manufactured aggregates and sand.
The pozzolanic properties and low relative density of reclaimed clinker reduces both the manufacturing cost and weight per unit.
This allows transporters to increase its payload volume per load which reduces the transport cost per unit and lowers the labour effort required by bricklayers at the building site.
Our bricks is therefore considered a more cost-effective option for building walls that will be plastered.
Our Maxi cement bricks are manufactured to the SANS 1215:2008 standard with the following dimensions: 140mm x 90mm x 290mm and left to cure until it reaches a minimum crushing strength of 7 MPa.
The average weight of our Maxi Bricks is +-6kg per brick. They are an ideal choice for building economical walls.
Due to the maxi cement bricks being larger than its stock or mini maxi counterparts, labour costs and construction time are reduced even more.
