Natural Building Blocks

Natural Building Blocks

With a range of natural building blocks from structural to non-structural (insulating) internal walling blocks and new build systems, we are confident that we have developed a perfect solution where building materials are to be scrutinised for their embodied energy, sustainability and performance. In developing a range that includes both structural and non-structural earth blocks, and complemented by our earth and lime mortars and renders, it is our aim to provide the materials and expertise to assist you in your natural building project.

Non-structural earth blocks

Our non-structural earth blocks are primarily used for the construction of internal walls and as the external wall insulation in timber framed buildings. Our non-structural earth blocks include: Hempcrete blocks made with hemp and lime which are essentially  a three-in-one earth block;  Hempclay blocks made from hemp and clay which can be used in conjunction with any type of timber frame where they provide the insulation and the backing for plasters; Light Earth blocks which are a medium density thermal and acoustic insulating block of clay and straw; Terratherm blocks made with clay and straw which are extremely low density. Terratherm blocks have similar insulating properties to sheep’s wool and are excellent as acoustic insulation between the studs of internal walls.
