Discover more about our revolutionary Porotherm system. Find out what benefits our system has to offer, alongside how quick and easy it is to install.Our multi-cellular clay block walling system provides a drier, safer and more sustainable building solution than traditional blockwork, it provides a solid walling material that delivers clear performance, environmental and economical benefits.
The heart of the system, and the secret of the speed and efficiency when laying, is the precision engineered Porotherm clay blocks. The blocks are ground after firing which give them tight tolerances and enable the use of a thin joint mortar system. This is complemented by a unique interlocking vertical joint on the perpendicular end which also further reduces the need for mortar compared to traditional blockwork.
