THE CONCEPT
WELCOME TO ECO BUILD PRODUCTS
Our Vision
The world presently faces lot of problems with air and water pollution resulting
into declining wildlife populations, deforestation, soil erosion, water scarcity
and hazardous waste issues. Our vision is to move forward to protect our environment
and create alternative product which humiliating the natural resources.
Our Story
Who, Why, where . . .
Eco Build Products has commenced his production, initially with Fly Ash Bricks.
EBP has got setup in Changodar near Ahmedabad, Gujarat. EBP produces good quality
Fly Ash Bricks with High Hydraulic Pressing Technology having fully automatic system.
We have entered in to market with vision to cater the modern construction industry
with innovative and Eco Friendly building products.
Our Objective
Our objective is to provide our customers good quality Eco Friendly Fly Ash Bricks
and other products.

What is Fly Ash?
Fly ash is one of the residues generated by combustion coal in thermal power plant.
It comprises of Fine Particles. Fly Ash when store in the ash ponds under dry condition
can become air born, causing air pollution and thus resulting in serious health
hazards. Fly Ash is generated in huge amount and has limitations of its utilization.
Fly Ash Bricks
Fly Ash Bricks are being produced from Fly Ash, generated from Thermal Power Plant
as by-product. Several testings and R & D efforts undertaken during past few decades
and it have been found that Fly Ash In presence of moisture reacts with lime at
ordinary temperature and forms a compound possessing cementitious properties. After
reactions between lime and flyash, calcium silicate hydrates are produced which
are responsible for the high strength of the compound.
EBP produces Fly Ash Bricks conforming to IS : 12894.
Properties of Fly Ash Bricks
Structural Capability
High compressive strength of Fly Ash Bricks eliminates breakages/wastages during
transport and handling. Fly Ash Bricks saves mortar in plastering and it is available
in several load bearing grades. Fly Ash Brick gives elegant look to brickwork. Due
to its comparable density the bricks do not cause any extra load for design of structures
and provides better resistance for earthquake loads due to panel action with high
strength bricks. Compressive strength of Fly Ash Bricks is av. 7.50 N/mm2
Appearance
Fly Ash Bricks comes in various size and have a pleasing colour like cement. They
are uniform in shape and smooth in finish. In building works, fly ash bricks require
no plastering. EBP made Fly Ash Bricks are awailabke in uniformly shaped with or
without frog. Fly Ash Bricks are lighter in weight than ordinary clay bricks and
less porous too.
Sound insulation
Fly Ash Bricks provide an acceptable degree of sound insulation.
Thermal properties
Thermal conductivity is 0.90-1.05 W/m2 ºC (20-30% less than those of concrete blocks).
These bricks do not absorb heat; they reflect heat and gives maximum light reflection
without glare.
Applicability
Fly Ash Bricks are suitable for use: -
• Load bearing external walls, in low and medium size structures.
• Non-load bearing internal walls in low and medium size
structures.
• Non-load bearing internal or external walls in high-rise
buildings.
Advantages of Fly Ash Bricks:
Durability:
• Load bearing external walls, in low and medium size structures.
• Non-load bearing internal walls in low and medium size structures.
• Non-load bearing internal or external walls in high-rise
buildings.
Aesthetic Appeal:
• Smooth surfaces and uniform sizes.
• Better thermal properties.
• Thinner masonry joints with higher uniformity.
• Higher acceptability for exposed brick masonry work.
Economy:
• Lesser nos. of bricks consumption because of regular full
sizes.
• Wastage component lower at site.
• Lesser cement mortar consumption because of thinner joints.
• Saving on plastering due to lesser plaster thickness.
• Almost 30% lower cost per unit of construction.
