BLOCK FACTORY

HOLLOW. SOLID. THERMAL.

BUILT FOR EVERY PURPOSE.

From partitions to structure and insulation, our block range is made for every project need.

The Brief

A single factory. Three intents.

Three product families engineered against different loads — hollow for partition, solid for structure, thermal for envelope. The aggregate discipline is the same; the intent is what differs.

01 / The Catalogue

The product catalogue.

Each block is documented with full technical specification — dimensionally accurate and tested against ASTM and BS EN standards.

A / 01 Hollow
Hollow Block
A / 01 — Partition

Hollow blocks.

Cellular concrete masonry units for non-load-bearing partition and infill construction. Lightweight, dimensionally stable, and acoustically performant. The default block of the Emirates' interior wall.

A / 02 Solid
Solid Block
A / 02 — Structure

Solid blocks.

Dense, full-mass concrete units for load-bearing and structural applications. Higher compressive strength, higher density, and full sound mass — specified where the wall does work, not just enclosure.

A / 03 Hourdi · Thermal
Hourdi / Thermal Block
A / 03 — Envelope & Filler

Hourdi & thermal.

Hourdi (filler) blocks used in suspended slab construction, and insulated thermal masonry engineered for the Gulf envelope — lightweight aggregate body with EPS-filled cavities, compliant with UAE thermal and energy codes.
