BLOCKS AND BRICKS

Precast Bricks vs. Baked Bricks and Blocks. Precast bricks are made by pouring concrete into molds and curing them in controlled conditions. These bricks are typically composed of cement, sand, aggregates, and water. Instead of being fired, they are cured through hydration, often using steam or ambient moisture.

Precast bricks offer consistent size, strength, and dimensional accuracy, and can be manufactured in various shapes, colors, and finishes.

Clay Bricks are made from natural clay that is molded and fired in a kiln at high temperatures. The firing process vitrifies the clay, making it durable and strong.

They have been used for centuries and are valued for their natural appearance and good thermal insulation properties.

Blocks are larger masonry units, typically made of concrete like precast bricks, but on a larger scale. Often hollow, they are lighter and offer better insulation. Blocks are commonly used in modern construction for walls and foundations, allowing faster building and reduced mortar use. The key differences between these materials lie in their composition and manufacturing processes. Precast bricks and blocks are made from concrete and cured, while baked bricks are made from clay and fired. Baked bricks have a more traditional, earthy appearance, whereas precast products can be customized in texture and color. In terms of performance, baked bricks are highly durable and suitable for long-term structures, while precast bricks and blocks provide faster installation, consistent quality, and design flexibility.
