Island Block and Paving – Innovation, Sustainability, Quality
Architects and builders across Australia are offered the cream of the crop in sustainable building materials with Island Block and Pavings’ Carbon Neutral range of products.
Island Block & Paving leads the way in sustainable building solutions with the first and only Carbon Neutral masonry range in Australia. Manufactured using advanced eco-friendly processes, these products are designed to minimise environmental impact without compromising on strength, durability or style.
Powered entirely by a 100kW solar farm, the manufacturing process eliminates the need for energy-intensive curing methods. Water captured on-site is reused during production, and natural, mined resources are significantly reduced by incorporating over 37% finely crushed recycled glass.
-
✅ Certified Carbon Neutral across the entire sustainable range – reducing emissions to just 114.9 CO₂e per tonne
-
✅ Made with 37.6% recycled glass – replacing natural sand and reducing reliance on virgin materials
-
✅ Low energy, solar-powered production – cutting CO₂ output by up to 73% compared to some clay-based products
Every product in the range—from bricks and building blocks to pavers and retaining wall units—is crafted to the highest quality standards and certifications. For added performance and longevity, Tech-Dry water-repellent additives are used during production, delivering stain resistance, long-lasting colour, and water absorption rates of less than 3%—ideal for Australia’s demanding conditions.
Made from “Tech Dry” water and stain repellant additive, blended throughout the bricks to ensure stain resistance and longevity of colour
All Bricks, Blocks and Pavers of the Future are 100% colourfast. This means no unsightly chips.
Patented and Global Green Tag certified, Bricks, Blocks and Pavers of the Future are manufactured with up to 38% coloured glass aggregate.
All Bricks, Blocks and Pavers of the Future are made with dimensional accuracy which is one of the key features of the range. Clean straight lines make them superior to other brick products.
Despite being made of sustainable engineered sand, the Bricks, Blocks and Pavers of the Future range is still an exposure-grade product. This means they are salt attack resistant, making them ideal for marine and coastal environments. This manufacturing process also makes this range exceptionally strong and noise-resistant.
Energy efficiency and sustainability in buildings are more important than ever. The Bricks, Blocks and Pavers of the Future range have a high thermal mass resulting in a cooler house in the Summer and a warmer house in the Winter, reducing household energy costs.
The bricks, blocks and pavers of the Future ranges are available in a vast range of unique brick colours and surface finishes, including an exclusive range of crisp, white bricks.
