The brick is a traditional building material that has been used for centuries in construction. It’s been such a widely used building material that we relate the brick’s esthetic with warmth and security.
Old hand made bricks were formed in wooden molds and then placed in wood
burning ovens. They did not have exact dimensions and each brick had its own
color and unique texture depending on the raw materials used. This unevenness gave
to the buildings used, that special character.
Nowadays we find the same old bricks as byproducts of demolished old
buildings and usually they have missing edges and mud residues from when they were
originally built. In order to contribute to the effort of preserving those
traditional building materials, PLINTHOCHROME developed a product range
consisting of hand made products which are exact replicas of the old hand made
ceramic bricks.
PLINTHOCHROME hand made bricks are formed by hand just like in the old
days. However their composition and tempering is altered using state of the art
technology. By this way PLINTHOCHROME hand made bricks conserve the virtues and
esthetic of old bricks but with none of the problems of the old ceramic bricks.
This is the reason why in recent years this particular product range has seen
an impressive development in sales across the world.
PLINTHOCHROME hand made bricks offer the best of both worlds: the traditional warm feeling with the performance needed from 21st century building materials.
