Article in De Tijd: Lowie Bricks Manufactures Low-Carbon Facing Bricks in Menen

We’re proud to share: our low-impact facing brick is the wonderful result of five years of research.

​

At Lowie Bricks, we believed from the very beginning that true environmental progress only works if it’s also affordable. That’s why we’ve reimagined the entire production process for traditional facing bricks: no more energy-intensive kilns, but an innovative mixing, vibrating, and pressing process. Traditional clay has been replaced by natural minerals, held together by a sustainable binder that hardens through natural carbonation.

​

The result? Up to 80% fewer CO2 emissions than a traditional brick, without compromising on quality or that warm, authentic look.
Thanks to our entire team and Sebastian Laga’s research and development work!

​

And this is just the beginning. We will continue to invest in research to further reduce our environmental impact, with the ultimate goal of achieving zero impact.

​

Building a better future starts with the choices we make today!
