Tower Brick and Tile manufactures traditional handmade bricks, which command a premium price.  TBTL has recently started manufacturing roof tiles to serve a similar market.  Full details on the product range and the company are on www.towerbrickandtile.co.uk

TBTL intends to convert its works to run on biogas, generated through anaerobic digestion.  This will trasnform the cost structure of a brick [gas is currently about 75% of the cost], make the product sustainable and produce revenue lines from the sale of gas into the grid.  The company is currently raising capital for this.  Interested parties can contact pbc@towerbrickandtile.co.uk for further details and a business plan.

Background 

Increased atmospheric carbon is a key component of global warming. Individuals and companies are increasingly looking for ways to reduce their carbon footprint (the carbon released into the atmosphere by a specific activity or by the normal processes of life). Increasing numbers of people wish to offset (counter-balance) their carbon footprint by purchasing carbon credits that pay for the reduction, absorption and/or avoidance of carbon emissions elsewhere.
