recycled brick aggregate
Life Cycle Transition
About the Product
The quarry of brickwork can be processed into recycled aggregates. The material can occur either in the factory, on the construction site or during the demolition of a building. The purer the type of fracture, the fewer steps are required to enable high-quality recycling. If 95 % of the recycled material consists of broken bricks, it is considered pure. The recycled material is available in different grain groups such as 0/2, 0/8, 2/8, 8/16 mm. These aggregates are characterised by their red colour and high porosity.
Due to its high porosity and the associated possible water absorption, brick quarry can be used especially as a vegetation substrate in gardening and landscaping. It is also used as an aggregate in RC concrete type 2, as a backfill material in earthworks, road construction, landfill construction and in research projects on RC products.
The quarry of bricks can be reused or recycled depending on the application. If it is pure and loose, it can be reused indefinitely. Once the recycled material has been incorporated into a product, the aggregates can no longer be dissolved in a single grade.
