Timbercrete unique bricks create unique homes


Our bricks range from 300mm to 900mm long, & 130mm to 250mm high. The above represent just a few of the possibilities when you are considering building in Timbercrete Veneer or Full Brick. And unique brick size is only one advantage; we can also vary the colour, texture & shape to give you an absolutely unique home!

Timbercrete's environmental credentials were independently recognised by the receipt of TWO awards in the 2004 Housing Industry Association GreenSmart competition.

A Timbercrete home was awarded Runner Up in the "Building of the Year" (single-skin block construction home in Worrigee on NSW South Coast)

Timbercrete was also awarded Runner Up as "Product of the Year."

Some other environmental benefits of Timbercrete include:

  • Most bricks are kiln dried; a manufacturing process that consumes vast amounts of energy (heat). Timbercrete is air dried, and consumes almost no energy at all in the production process.
  • Timbercrete consumes substantial quantities of saw mill waste. When this material is disposed of with traditional methods (eg burning or decomposition as mulch or land fill) it releases carbon dioxide, a major contributor to green house gases. When blended into the production of Timbercrete bricks, this saw mill waste cannot decompose, thereby preventing the release of any green house gases.
  • Timbercrete contains no toxic chemicals.
  • Timbercrete's superior insulating qualities contribute to the more efficient heating and cooling of homes. It is significantly superior to just about all other bricks and blocks in this regard.

Unlike large national building product suppliers, Timbercrete® products are manufactured and distributed by a network of trained and licensed local businesses. This distribution strategy allows us to provide YOU with some very significant advantages:-
  • Low cost products (no middlemen).
  • Personalised service from the manufacturer.
  • Use of local raw materials.
  • Creation of local jobs.
  • Lower freight costs.
