Sustainable business practices

Adbri Masonry is Australia’s leading masonry manufacturer and a wholly owned subsidiary of Adbri Ltd, an S&P/ASX 200 company. Adbri Masonry adheres to Adbri Ltd’s sustainability policy which is based on the World Business Council for Sustainable Development’s Cement Sustainability Initiative (WBCSD CSI). This policy outlines the strategies, actions and measures the Company is applying to:

  • Reduce energy consumption and emissions
  • Conserve resources
  • Achieve cleaner production
  • Produce increasingly sustainable products
  • Engage with the community on environmental issues
  • Ensure the health and safety of its own people and the wider community.
Recycled materials

Some of Adbri Masonry’s products are made with portions of reused industrial by-products, such as fly ash. By reintroducing these materials in the production process, we are able to safely recylce what would otherwise be waste.

With a life span often longer than that of their original project application, concrete segmental pavers are able to be pulled up and re-used in other projects. However if it is deemed that any concrete masonry is no longer suitable for reuse, masonry can also be recycled further through a crushing process creating an effective aggregate able to be utilised as road or sub base material.

Permeable paving

Adbri Masonry’s range of Ecopave® permeable pavers assist in allowing water to filtrate through pavement surface layers, minimising stormwater run off, downstream flooding and pollution problems, with the added benefit of reducing the need for costly underground retention systems.

As seen in projects including Sydney’s Olympic Park, which utilised Eco-Trihex® in a range of colours, permeable pavers are a practical and effective solution to water management issues in Australia.

Sustainable building products

Products which use industrial by-products include our grey brick and Besser block ranges in NSW, QLD, SA and Tasmania. The use of these waster materials supports the circular economy without compromising the quality and integrity of our masonry products.

Benefits from incorporating post-industrial and post–consumer recycled materials in our bricks and blocks include:

  • Reduced landfill
  • Reducing the resources and energy required to source new materials
  • Conserving natural aggregates
  • Reducing total Portland cement usage across the Adbri Masonry business
Cement substitutes

Supplementary Cementitious Materials (SCM), including post-industrial recycled content such as granulated blast furnace slags, fly ash, and blended cements have been used as a substitute for ordinary Portland cement in concrete masonry.

In the past three years, Adbri Masonry has achieved substitution rates of up to 60% in some product ranges and is continually striving to integrate these efficiencies to all products produced.

Natural aggregate substitutes

Adbri Masonry’s controlled production process allow the use alternative aggregates such as post-industrial bi-products, including furnace bottom ash and crusher fines to be introduced as a significant part of our masonry production.

Adbri Masonry take our obligations in the management of the Environment seriously.
