Frequently Asked Questions:
The main advantages of our bricks are
listed below: - High Compressive Strength: Our Bricks
composition, ensure that we achieve compressive strengths of 75-100 kg/sq.cm
and above, which is 2-3 times the products in the market. Our fly ash bricks
can be used in load bearing walls, with the guidance of Structural Engineers
and Architects.
- Environment Friendly: Our brick uses unfired Fly
Ash technology hence the CO2 emissions in the manufacturing process are limited. Further use of our bricks helps in conservation of precious top-soil.
- Excellent Thermal Insulation: The buildings using
fly ash bricks are cool in summers and warm in winters. The high insulating
property, with low embodied energy, of our products reduces the energy
consumption of the buildings significantly by as much as 40-50%.
- Excellent Sound Insulation: Fly ash bricks are
sound absorbent and restrict sound transmission keeping the interiors very
pleasant and quiet.
- Fire Resistance: Fire resistance of
fly ash bricks is very high as these bricks are composed of fly ash as its
major constituents, which is the un-burnt residue of the coal fired in a thermal
power plant.
- Nil Efflorescence: Fly ash bricks
resist salt and other sulphates attack, ensuring no efflorescence in the
structure.
More than 75% (by weight) post-industrial recycled materials are used in the manufacture of our bricks. Fly-ash is a thermal power plant waste product and the Lime used in our bricks is also considered an industrial waste.
Please refer to the comparison table below: S.No | Properties | Puzzolana Flyash Bricks | Conventional Clay Bricks | 1 | Basic Raw Material | Pozzolan – Flyash | Clay | 2 | Size & Quality | Uniform ( Factory made) | Uneven | 3 | Number of Joints in construction | Less (uniform size) | More (uneven size) | 4 | Mortar requirement | Less | More | 5 | Platering | Less | More | 6 | Direct Gypsum Plaster | Possible | Not Viable | 7 | Compressive strength | More | Less | 8 | Standards | IS:12894 – 2002 | IS:3495(Pt.I)1976 |
Puzzolana Green Flyash bricks are highly advantageous for procuring LEED and other similar environmental certifications for your buildings. Please follow the link for detailed information.
