Enhancing tradition and sustainability: Ibstock's Parkhouse factory upgrade
Nestled within our Ibstock history is the Parkhouse factory, which has been operating since 1985. Known for its quality products, especially favoured by housebuilders, the factory recently underwent its first major kiln refurbishment, a £5 million investment to improve operational efficiency and increase volume capacity by an impressive 10%.
The factory specialises in a focused range of bricks, featuring various hues and textures, including a unique black speckle effect. In addition to its aesthetic appeal, the factory prioritises sustainability initiatives as part of Ibstock's Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) strategy, aiming for net-zero emissions through practices like rainwater harvesting and energy reduction. These upgrades demonstrate Ibstock's commitment to quality, innovation and sustainability as the Parkhouse factory continues to evolve and meet the demands of the changing world.
