Lignacrete - A high density, robust, loadbearing block, suitable for internal and external walls, above and below ground. For total design flexibility select from a range of sizes, strengths, and finishes.
Coursing Blocks are manufactured to BS EN 771-3 under a BSI certified Quality System complying with BS EN 9001.
Coursing Blocks – Ash GP, Fibo, Lignacrete and Lignacite – SAVE TIME AND MONEY
Coursing Blocks are available for use in bonding and infill to ensure that a uniform thermal performance is achieved throughout the wall. Their use will save time and money by reducing the need for on-site cutting of full sized blocks, reduce waste and improve productivity. Compared to conventional brick size coursing units, Coursing Blocks are larger, meaning fewer units need to be laid and less mortar is used. Coursing Blocks will also eliminate the risk of differential movement which can be caused when different materials are used in the same wall.
