YiBrick is a sustainable and circular ceramic brick. It consists of over 90 per cent recycled ceramic and contributes to the sensible use of ceramic waste, of which up to 18 million tonnes are produced in China every year. In addition, it reduces carbon dioxide emissions in the production of this building material. The water-permeable material properties prevent waterlogging and improve the urban climate by counteracting the formation of heat islands.
