Why clay brick?
Brick (meaning raw and firing bricks, not clay) has long been used as a building material. Brick can be said to be one of the oldest man-made building materials. The use of bricks as building materials in Iran and the world has an ancient history.
Perhaps none of the materials used in construction, such as brick, can bring to life the earth and the color and smell of soil. Brick is the only item found in any corner of our traditional architecture. And every place has taken on a new form, depending on location and user. The presence of brick in interior architecture and design is not only old fashion, but also manifests itself in more diverse shapes and forms. Clay bricks are the first and most abundant, dating back several thousand years.

But the building industry is evolving day by day. The use of raw clay was once considered a technology, and today the use of materials such as fired bricks is unacceptable because human knowledge has gone beyond requirements. Nowadays, traditional bricks are increasingly being replaced by more modern materials such as Clay Brick because of their high energy, high weight, low running speed, and no earthquake resistance. Its benefits include the following:
- Reduced building mass
- Sound and energy insulation
- Simplicity in construction
- Increase in building stability
- Reduce energy consumption in buildings
- Increase in build speed
Nowadays, using world-class technology and modern machinery in the brick industry, we can produce high quality bricks and building materials in less time and with lower energy consumption.
