PIRROUET® carbonated facing bricks
To produce Pirrouet®, mineral by-products from the steel industry are mixed with sand, dyes and water, and then pressed in brick moulds. In a conditioned room - with high CO2 concentration – Vandersanden lets the brick harden. The CO2 reacts with calcium-containing materials creating carbonates. This permanent bond creates a hard limestone-like brick.
