Building circular economies with non-cementitious masonry products
The construction world has been seeking more affordable, superior performing and genuinely green building product for decades. The wait is finally over.
Nu-Rock Technology involves a unique manufacturing process that produces 100% sustainable bricks, blocks, pavers and aggregates that are stronger, lighter, more salt resistant, more thermally efficient and that also deliver a superior fire rating.
Not only are Nu-Rock products greener and better performing they are completely recyclable. Concrete loses 50% of it’s structural integrity whereas recycled Nu-Rock products maintain 100%. As Nu-Rock’s manufacturing requires less energy and is more streamlined than traditional masonry manufacturing, Nu-Rock products are considerably more affordable which helps ensure builders the worlds over can maintain healthier and much needed profit margins.
By replacing traditional clay fired bricks and concrete blocks with Nu-Rock products, builders around the world will be providing their clients with greener and better performing products whilst playing a role in the remediation of waste sites and reducing carbon emissions.
Fire Rated Steel Structures
Fire Rated Steel Structures
Nu-Rock’s “Formulated Rock” has an extremely high Thermal Rating. It is also over 50% lighter and will bond to steel far better than traditional Vermiculite materials. These superior performance characteristics are perfectly suited for precast/pre-sprayed fire rated structural steel column and beam systems. Nu-Rock’s Sprayable Fire Rated materials are superior in strength, durability and 100% sustainability will make Green Fire Rated Steel.
Emissions free manufacturing
Nu-Rock‘s ‘Formulated Rock’ technology involves an emissions free manufacturing process. A vast improvement on the centuries-old, energy-hungry processes involving the quarrying, transporting and kiln burning of limestone at 1500°C. Plus, the quarrying and transporting of precious and finite natural resources such as sand and aggregates. Or energy hungry Clay based product manufacturing that involves a 7-day warming and drying process at 500°C followed by a 3-day firing process at 1050°C.
