Are bricks eco friendly?
Bricks are one of the most eco-friendly building materials available, manufactured from an abundant natural resource and being incredibly durable bricks can last for centuries and require very little maintenance reducing the need for replacements.
With the ever increasing need to reduce your carbon footprint, bricks have a high thermal mass, meaning they can absorb, store and release heat slowly. This helps regulate indoor temperatures reducing the requirement for energy consumption in buildings.
Traditional Brick & Stone is also ISO 14001:2015 certified, a global standard that underscores our commitment to reducing our carbon footprint and underscores our commitment to sustainability across our business.
