Meet the world’s most sustainable,
low carbon brick, available in 12 colours
Certified & available to order now
The K-BRIQ® is a premium brick product combining a competitive technical specification with superior sustainability and an ultra low carbon performance. Every K-BRIQ® tells an ethical story from the use of recycled materials to calculated carbon savings.
Made using compression technology from near 100% recycled construction, demolition and excavation waste, it retains its own character and offers an elegant solution and versatility as an architectural façade or interior surface material. A fully circular solution from the construction sector to the construction sector.
The K-BRIQ® is now BBA certified in the UK (Agrement Certificate 25/7367) and certified in the USA through DrJ (Certificate TER 2404-10). European certification is underway.
What makes the K-BRIQ visually interesting is the range and finish: although the K-BRIQ is almost indistinguishable from a conventional brick in size and form, it offers a wide colour palette and often a subtly varied texture due to its recycled content.
The beauty of the K-BRIQ’s circular and low-carbon credentials is a product with a subtle multi-tonal finish bringing strong aesthetics and a modern, sustainable look.
The K-BRIQ is coloured using recycled pigments. It has been tested for UV colour fastness in accordance with BS EN 20105-A02:1995/ISO 105-A02:1993.
The colour range tested, including all colours in the K-BRIQ® palette, indicated that the product goes through slight to no colour change when exposed to UV conditions, and performs better than most masonry.

We collaborate closely with you to evaluate the suitability of on-site waste for recycling into K-BRIQ®s or related products. Depending on the demolition site's location, we may engage local regulated waste partners to handle and transport the waste to the nearest Kenoteq factory.
We work closely with regeneration sites in their masterplanning to ascertain the suitability for K-BRIQ®s factories to be established on-site to convert the regeneration site waste into façade and interior surface products for re-use in the new builds on the site.
