Clay Blocks

EH Smith have formed an association with leading manufacturer Wienerberger to stock and supply the clay block walling system, Porotherm. Using a chain of supply partners from all around the UK, EH Smith have built a nationwide supply network guaranteeing that builders, contractors and other construction professionals have access to a comprehensive and reliable service. The precision ground clay blocks feature distinctive interlocking edges for incomparable rigidity. When combining this feature with the use of the special Porotherm Bed Joint Mortar builders are able to realise a significant reduction in overall build time. The advanced adhesive technology within the mortar also helps improve overall wall strength. Porotherm clay blocks are purposeful rather than aesthetic and are designed to receive a finish where exposed. Externally this is typically a render or cladding system; whereas internally a more traditional plaster, or plasterboard over an initial parge coat, is normally used. Porotherm clay blocks are set to revolutionise the UK construction industry through exceptionally fast, virtually dry construction. The walling system is widely used and has been proven on various projects in Europe for more than 30 years as is ideal for use on both domestic and commercial applications.
