Blocks for the future offer designers the opportunity to create high quality, sustainable structure using architectural building blocks comprising an engineered sand made from processed coloured glass aggregates which will last a lifetime. With a patented range of finishes including smooth, exposed aggregate, diamond brushed and polished, Blocks for the Future are making it easy to be “green”.

After manufacture the blocks are then treated to expose the glass sand particles on the surface, these finishes have never been seen in the marketplace before and are unique to Island Block & Paving. Due to the cementitious value of the finely crushed  glass, cement usage is reduced by 10% – therefore importantly reducing CO2 emissions whilst still achieving excellent product strength.
