BRICKS OF
TRADITION
The Wienerberger Company
People all over the world have lived in brick houses for thousands of years. And they enjoy it.
Bricks are a thoroughly natural building material, created from the elements fire, water, air and
clay.
But clay bricks do not only meet the highest
demands for healthy and sustainable living. They
also open up virtually limitless design possibilities for builders and architects. In addition,
2
they are built to last and require minimal care.
No wonder sturdy brick houses retain their value
over many generations – and become even more
beautiful with time.

The internationally active Wienerberger AG is the largest brick producer with 212 plants in 30
countries worldwide and number one in clay roof tiles in Europe. The German Wienerberger GmbH,
based in Hanover, is regarded as a leading provider of high thermal insulating bricks.
With over 190 years of experience and knowhow in the manufacturing of bricks, today we
can offer our customers a comprehensive portfolio of sound materials which we constantly expand and improve – just like our service. After all,
people should be able to count on Wienerberger
always and everywhere, also in the future.

us, our products and the advantages of clay as a

BRICKS OF
FUTURE
Wall Solutions
To create living and working space in urban areas, we are building higher and higher. This also
leads to higher demands on the construction materials used. At the same time, we are more
and more concerned about issues such as healthy living and sustainability as we spend more
than 90 percent of our life time in buildings.
Buildings can be built with up to nine floors using
Poroton wall solutions by Wienerberger. The big
advantage: Poroton bricks filled with natural perlite or mineral wool work without additional outsi-
6
de insulation. In addition, they are completely free
of pollutants and meet the highest demands of fire
and soundproofing, structural analysis and energy
efficiency – both today and in the future.
The ideal foundation for a healthy living and
energy-efficient future:

SECURITY
Roof Solutions
Roofs must meet many requirements: They are supposed to protect us from wind and weather,
provide a comfortable living environment, help us save energy – and last but not least make a
significant contribution to the appearance of a house.
Koramic roof solutions by Wienerberger combine
all these advantages, both for new buildings and
for renovations. Every system component is perfectly coordinated – from insulation to ventilati-
8
on and exhaust to roof access elements, snow
guard facilities as well as the tiles themselves. Of
course, you also have the choice between a wide
variety of colours and shapes here.
When severe storms sweep across the country,
people need a secure roof over their heads.
That is why we have developed Sturmfix – an innovative
wind uplift securing system for all geographical locations.

BRICKS OF
PERSONALITY
Façade Solutions
Among the many ways of façade solutions, facing bricks made of clay are often the most sensible
and most attractive option. No other building material offers a similar variety of colours, shapes
and surfaces.
Terca façade solutions provide seemingly endless ways to realise your own ideas and lend
vitality to homes. Facing bricks are also extremely energy efficient, ecological, solid, durable
and maintenance-free. They do not lose of their
radiance even after many years – stand for timeless elegance and design.
10
By the way: For those who prefer a more streamlined wall construction, we recommend our Terca
straps. These can be cut from each available
facing brick.
Much more than just a pretty façade:

BRICKS OF
DESIGN
Façade Solutions
Ventilated curtain façade panels made of clay refine new buildings and lend renovated objects
a modern character again. Combined with steel, glass or wood, they captivate with elegance,
simplicity and timeless perfection.
At the same time, the aesthetics of our Argeton
façade solutions remain over many decades:
They are resistant to weathering, impact and
shatter-proof and virtually maintenance free. But
12
above all, they offer almost unlimited design
possibilities to builders and architects because
they can be manufactured in myriad colours, sizes and surfaces on request.
Rarely have ventilated curtain façades
been so aesthetic: Argeton façade solutions
by Wienerberger.

BRICKS OF
IMAGINATION
Landscaping Solutions
Whether in private gardens or in public places and paths: Pavers are the perfect intermediary
between architecture and environment. They look good for a long time and can be as creative
as they are easy to install. They are also extremely weather resistant, slip-resistant, non-skid
and abrasion-resistant.
Many good reasons to choose our Bockhorn and
Penter landscaping solutions – especially since
we have the right stone for every requirement:
Exclusive hand-cobbled pavers and rumpled
clinkers in retro style are just as much a part of
14
our range as rectilinear extruded products. Sewer
clinkers, pre-cast bricks and customised solutions – for example, extra roughened surfaces or
pavers with spacers – harmoniously complete our
offer.
Natural beauty with every step:

Chimney Solutions
Our heating technology and exhaust gas routeing have changed dramatically in recent years.
Increasingly stringent legal requirements and price shifts in the types of fuel drive the demand
for chimney systems in all situations.
Wienerberger has developed the right answer
for this: Kamtec chimney solutions are perfectly
matched to the requirements of modern heating
systems. And they are suitable for home heating
16
as well as for stoves. The best thing though: If
you want, you can choose a different type of heating system tomorrow – without having to make
any structural modifications to the chimney.
Functional, safe and adaptable:
