Green Energy Bricks Tomorrows Bricks Today

During both the Summer and Winter seasons, the Energy Brick, which forms the main envelope around

the building, was outstanding in being able to maintain a near constant temperature inside the house

without using any type of air conditioning, whatsoever!!

TESTING

We have tested the Energy Brick to the extremes to ensure that it can meet and surpass all the

challenges and standards that it would ever need to face.

See our Test Results Page on our Website to find our Test House Temperature Test, our Combustibility

tests, screw fixing test and Compressive Strength test and comparison test results.

You can’t go past using the Energy Brick to greatly improve energy ratings, fire retardant qualities, cost

savings and speed of construction, to name a few.

Test House Temperature Test

After 5 minutes in front of

3000o C on outer surface.

After 2 minutes in front of

3000o C on foam surface.

Fire Resistance Testing Our fire resistance testing indicated that even under the extremes of 3000°C the magnesium oxide board did not ignite or catch fire. The PIR foam core was self extinguishing. You can be confident that you will have some of the best fire protection when the Energy Brick is used as part of the construction process.

alignment and spacing every time.

Mastic Groove This groove provides location for air seal mastic.

8mm Magnesium Board Tough surface is made from reinforced magnesium

oxide to provide maximum fire protection.

Central Void Central Void is for internal services or lintel over

windows or door openings

Our Design Criteria

To make a radical cost

effective improvement in the

thermal performance of

buildings for both concrete

slab and above ground

cons t ruc t i on . P rev i ous

attempts to achieve super-

insulated standards have

always resulted in a fairly

hefty COST penalty. This has

p reven ted ma in s t r eam

adoption of the higher

building standards.

Not Any more!

Introducing the Energy Brick!

It’s exciting! It’s new! It has been designed with a massive R8+ insulation rating, it cuts down on

construction time, saves on construction costs, is load bearing, is easy to install, is fire resistant and

much, much more!

With the Energy Brick, a wall can be constructed so much faster than conventional brick laying and you

can even do it yourself!

It's that simple!

Green Energy Bricks are committed to energy savings, and it’s for this reason our bricks have been such a

winner with home owners and builders alike.

It has been called the super brick, the maxi brick and even the increda-brick, but we have simply called it

the Energy Brick which goes far beyond the energy saving performance values of any other brick or wall

lining on the market today.

They can be laid on either concrete slab or raised floor construction and by simply laying the wall bricks,

no mortar is required, no filling of voids, and is easy as 1, 2, 3.



It is truly Tomorrows Bricks, Today!

The Energy Brick was developed to avoid adding extra layers of

materials and labour, which would add cost to conventional

construction.

The Energy Brick stands alone in being able to give a single,

structural light weight wall that saves labour costs and initial

construction time and then ongoing savings in reduced energy

costs due to its massive R8+ insulation rating.

You can’t go wrong with the super energy efficient Energy

Brick!

The brick’s unique formulation consists of a central core of rigid

Polyisocyanurate Foam (PIR) with an external and internal skin of

8mm Magnesium Oxide Board. This makes it both light weight, yet load bearing and with an attractive

finish.

With a massive R8+ insulation rating the Energy Brick has a minimum of 4 times greater R rating

than most other standard construction methods.

All in all the brick has been well thought out to save labour costs, increase energy efficiency, faster

construction times and of course, save money!

Energy Efficiency

The top priorities for energy efficient buildings

is to be able to keep actual energy

consumption low whilst decreasing the loss of

heat from a building during winter, and

minimizing the entry of heat during the

summer months.

This allows for the purchase of much smaller

sized heating and cooling equipment. With

smaller equipment comes less initial outlay,

and less ongoing costs.

Whether in the far reaches of Northern

Australia, in the middle of the desert, or in the

Southern parts of Australia, the Energy Brick

meets the exacting requirements to minimize

the use of artificial heating and cooling in a

building, therefore saving you money!

The Environment:

When we build a house we cannot avoid

impacting the environment, but we can

work towards reducing that

environmental impact.

At Green Energy Bricks our desire is to

help accelerate the adoption of building

practices that result in energy-efficient,

healthier and environmentally

sustainable buildings.

Green Energy Bricks has taken the

initiative through our super energy

efficient bricks to assist builders and

consumers with a unique

environmentally friendly building

technique, to lessen the impact on our

environment.
