While Timbercrete offers a wide variety of choice for sizes of bricks and blocks, our 360 Series, 100mm thick blocks are fast becoming the most popular.

Contrasting Timber Colour goes well with Timbercrete. |
Used in either double-brick fashion (as shown in the photo's) or veneer, these blocks offer 4-5 times the 'R' rating than that of a standard clay brick, are 50% lighter in weight than clay or concrete, have super high fire ratings, fantastic acoustic properties and the list goes on.
These 360 Series blocks are manufactured to slot into clay brick increments, meaning if your home has been planned for clay bricks then these can be used as far superior substitute, not to mention how great they look as well!
The block size of the 360 series is one and a half times the length of a standard brick and two times the height, this means whenever your bricklayer lays a block, he's laying 3 standard sized bricks in one hit! Because of the lighter weight your bricklayer can still lay the bricks with one hand no problem. This means savings on time and costs!

A bricklayer easily lays a Timbercrete brick. |
Most of all Timbercrete blocks are hand made and the mixture is made using recycled timber waste. The energy it takes to manufacture a Timbercrete block is minimal, especially when compared to the hungry embodied energy it takes to manufacture a kiln fired clay brick.
