Cool in summer & warm in winter with energy efficient building materials - concrete masonry from C & M Brick
C & M's Architectural Masonry range is cool in summer and warm in winter without compromising architectural design.
Controlling the passage of applied heat escaping a building in winter or atmospheric heat entering a building in summer is a key factor when designing new buildings.
This is why more architects and designers are turning to Concrete Masonry because it has good thermal insulation properties as well as great Thermal Mass.
Thermal Mass is the ability of a material to retain a quantity of heat energy when subjected to a temperature differential. Thus slowly releasing stored heat in
winter and slowly absorbing atmospheric heat in summer.
Generally, materials that are good thermal insulators are incapable of supporting heavy loads and conversely most good load supporting materials are poor insulators.
Concrete Masonry is a notable exception; C & M's Architectural Masonry provides smart building solutions with an architectural finish. All finishes offer an attractive
appearance with no maintenance, high durability, high load bearing capacity, affordability, and most importantly, good acoustic and thermal performance.
The range is available in a wide selection of neutral colours including C & M's hallmark 'Bondi Blend', a blend of pale cream and golden tones which mirrors the natural
horizontal veining of sandstone in a broad selection of surface finishes, including Pitched Stone, Sandhurst Stone, Macquarie Stone, Smooth Stone, Honed and Shot-blast.
