At Olivier Bricks, craftsmanship and innovation are central. Since 1949, when the family business was founded in Rumbeke by Gerard Olivier-Decruy, we have specialized in producing high-quality facing bricks valued for their quality, aesthetics, and durability. In 2014, Olivier Bricks was acquired by the Roussel Group. We remain true to our traditional production methods but also strongly focus on innovation. This pursuit of renewal is particularly evident in our collaboration with sister company Lowie Bricks, which fully concentrates on sustainable, ecological facing bricks.
In 2019, we launched an ambitious research and development program. Our goal was to develop a sustainable and affordable brick that addresses today's ecological challenges. Thanks to advanced techniques, we successfully created a hybrid brick with a production process that significantly reduces environmental impact, without compromising on aesthetics or quality.
Lowie Bricks emit as much as 80% less CO2 compared to traditional ceramic bricks. We achieved this by completely eliminating the energy-intensive firing process. Instead, our bricks cure through a hydraulic binding process and natural carbonation. This makes Lowie Bricks a leading product in the world of sustainable building materials. At Lowie Bricks, sustainability, affordability, and authenticity are paramount.
While Olivier Bricks continues to adhere to classic clay bricks, Lowie Bricks opts for a more ecological approach. Our innovative production process aligns with the growing demand for environmentally friendly building materials. We have succeeded in reducing the ecological footprint without compromising the quality or aesthetic aspects of our bricks.
Olivier Bricks facade bricks are known for their excellent quality and aesthetic appeal. Lowie Bricks adds a new dimension by making sustainability affordable. We are convinced that ecological progress only makes sense if it is accessible to everyone. Therefore, Lowie Bricks' prices are even lower than those of ceramic bricks. This makes Lowie Bricks attractive to anyone looking to minimize both costs and their ecological footprint.
At both Olivier Bricks and Lowie Bricks, we share a passion for the authentic appearance of facade bricks. Olivier Bricks' stones are known for their timeless character and unique colors. With Lowie Bricks, we guarantee a visual and qualitative experience equivalent to that of traditional ceramic bricks. This demonstrates that innovation and tradition can go hand in hand.
