Established in 1938, Cape Brick is the longest running manufacturer of quality concrete masonry in operation in the Western Cape.

Our comprehensive product range includes the standard masonry products such as all sizes of bricks and blocks, as well as retaining wall blocks and decking blocks.

In October 2009 we introduced our exciting new range of wet-cast paving products, featuring over 300 different modules in a wide variety of colours and textures.

Family owned and run, we pride ourselves on our commitment to consistent customer service excellence and the provision of the highest quality products to the market.

Cape Brick promotes sustainable development through the manufacture and supply of arguably the most energy efficient and environmentally friendly concrete products available to the market.

“Building a better environment by manufacturing products out of recycled construction and demolition materials”

Cape Brick manufactures concrete masonry units with possibly the lowest embodied energy of any masonry product available in the Western Cape today. In fact, our products contain an average of 70% recycled materials. Cape Brick uses approximately 70,000 tons of recycled material per year, which is estimated at 10% of Cape Town’s total recycled building waste materials.

We are proud members of the Concrete Manufacturers Association and adhere to the manufacturing standards as prescribed by them.

BUILDING A BETTER ENVIRONMENT

HOW DO YOU BUILD A BETTER ENVIRNOMENT?

A better environment can only be created through the promotion of sustainable development. This means specifying and using building products that are energy efficient.

WHEN IS A MASONRY PRODUCT ENERGY EFFICIENT?

There are two requirements to an energy efficient masonry product. The first is that the product should have good thermal insulation properties. Concrete masonry is naturally thermally efficient, and when used in cavity wall construction has the effect of ensuring that buildings stay warm in winter and cool in summer, thereby lessening the need for artificial climate control and wasted energy. The second requirement is that the product should have a low embodied energy.

WHAT IS EMBODIED ENERGY?

This is the energy consumed in the manufacture and transportation of construction materials to site. To manufacture a masonry product with a low embodied energy the raw materials should be sourced as close as possible to the manufacturing plant and should contain as much recycled material as possible, the manufacturing process should use as little energy as possible, and the manufacturing plant should be as close as possible to the site to reduce the transport energy component.

WHERE DOES RECYCLING FIT IN?

The use of recycled materials is crucial to lowering the embodied energy of masonry products.

WHY CHOOSE CAPE BRICK?

Cape Brick, located in Philippi, now manufactures concrete masonry units with possibly thelowest embodied energy of any masonry product available in the Western Cape today. CapeBrick is one of the first masonry manufacturers to set up a crushing facility to reduce constructionand demolition waste (C&DW), consisting of mainly reinforced concrete, to recycled crushed aggregate (RCA). The RCA is then used as the main ingredient in all the company’s products. Cape Brick uses approximately 70,000 tons of RCA per year.

For further information please contact Cape Brick. Tel: (021) 690 2020.


05


HOW DO WE BUILD A BETTER ENVIRNOMENT?

• The C&DW would normally be dumped in landfill sites, thereby impacting on sensitive areas. • Thus using RCA in the manufacture of our concrete masonry products eases the pressure on the landfill sites. • Using RCA means that less virgin materials such as sand and stone have to be quarried, thereby directly lessening the mining impact on the environment.• Cape Brick is only 15kms from the city center where most demolition takes place, resulting in a transport energy saving, as most sand and stone quarries are between 30kms and 50kms distant and require a large transport component.• The quality of the RCA is actually superior to that of the quarried materials available at a similar price. This means that a lesser percentage of cement can be utilized in the concrete mix to achieve the same compressive strength, resulting in a further energy saving. • (The use of Fly-Ash in the mix has also further reduced the amount of cement required and therefore lowered our product’s embodied energy considerably).• Cape Brick’s own waste products are processed into RCA, and therefore do not have to be disposed of.

DOES ANY OF THIS AFFECT THE PRODUCT?

The use of RCA has a hugely beneficial effect on product quality. As has already been mentioned the quality of the RCA is actually superior to that of the quarried materials available at a similar price. This results in products that are not only more beneficial to the environment, but have a higher compressive strength in the bargain. The end result is a truly green building material.

Concrete masonry is also cost effective, meaning that by specifying CMA approved masonry units, as manufactured by Cape Brick, you will not only help to promote sustainable building practice, but will realize a saving in the process.

AWARDS FOR EXCELLENCE

The Green Building was initiated by Sarah Ward and Mark

Borchers of Sustainable Energy Africa, in collaboration with Mike

Schroeder, an architect working with the Development Action Group.

The clients sought to develop premises that provided rental office

accommodation and yet demonstrated that the application of green

principles in design and construction can become normal in commercial

building in the urban environment. A number of key factors were

addressed in the planning and design of the building. One factor of

the design approach called for reduced heating and cooling energy

consumption in the building, and to this end detailed thermal modelling

was used. With passive thermal design being the objective (avoiding the

need for air conditioners), the choice of wall materials and construction

systems was critical in terms of the features used to optimise thermal

performance.

Various construction technologies and materials were considered,

including rammed earth, sandbag construction andunfired clay bricks.

The final choice was cavity wall construction from recycled concrete

brick, sourced locally from Cape Brick. Concrete masonry is naturally

thermally efficient, and when used in cavity wall construction has the

effect of creating walling with high insulation and thermal properties.The

walling helps to ensure that the building stays warm in winter and cool in

summer, thereby lessening the need for artificial climate control.

Another factor of the design approach called for limiting embodied

energy in the construction materials. Embodied energy is the energy

consumed in the manufacture and transportation of construction

materials to site.To manufacture a masonry product with a low embodied

energy the raw materials should be sourced as close as possible to the

manufacturing plant and should contain as much recycled material as

possible.

The manufacturing process should use as little energy as possible,

and the manufacturing plant should be as close as possible to the site

to reduce the transport energy component. Cape Brick manufactures

concrete masonry units with possibly the lowest embodied energy

of any masonry product available in the Western Cape today. This is

achieved through both the location of the factory and the manufacturing

process itself. Cape Brick, in conjunction with Ross Demolition, is one

of the first masonry manufacturers to set up a crushing facility to reduce

construction and demolition waste, consisting mainly of reinforced

concrete, into recycled crushed aggregate (RCA).

The RCA is then used as the main ingredient in all the company’s

products. On average, all our products contain 70% recycled crushed

aggregates and Cape Brick uses 70,000 tonnes of RCA per year.

Located in Salt River, Cape Brick is only five kilometres from the

city centre, as well as being the closest major masonry manufacturer

to both the southern suburbs and the Atlantic Seaboard.This results

in shorter distances travelled to site, leading to both cost and energy

savings.

The use of RCA also has a hugely beneficial effect on product

quality.The quality of the RCA is actually superior to that of the quarried

materials available at a similar price, which results in products that are

not only more beneficial to the environment, but also have a higher

compressive strength.

The end product is a truly green building material; a recycled brick

with a low embodied energy, which itself is fully recyclable. Selected as

the product of choice for the Green Building by the leading experts on

sustainable energy, Cape Brick’s recycled bricks are also engineering

grade, load-bearing, structural concrete masonry units as approved by

the Concrete Manufacturers Association.

Help to promote sustainable building practice – specify recycled!
