General Shale, a leading manufacturer of one of the world’s oldest green building materials has produced a new brochure entitled “Combining the Best in Brick.”
General Shale, the North American subsidiary of Wienerberger AG, is excited to offer this eight- page production that focuses on the firm’s Cleveland County, North Carolina manufacturing facility. . A major rationale behind this purchase was to add this plant’s unique products that included exclusive colors, sizes and textures to strengthen General Shale’s already well-known line of residential clay brick. The enhanced product line opened the door for the firm to provide new and cutting-edge product options for the architectural and commercial markets.
Today, the Cleveland County Plant (CCP) produces highest-quality brick products made from clay and shale from North Carolina. It is the first company in the United States to be third-party certified for having recycled content in its brick… as much as 84.8% recycled content. And, because these products come from a centralized location 500 miles (or, less) away from major national commercial construction regions, buildings specified with General Shale CCP brick materials may qualify for LEED sustainable design certification.
The CCP produces an attractive and rugged brick collection that offers a number of advantages to the “construction team” of architects, contractors and building owners. These include:

  • Bricks produced with a palette consisting of distinctive, modern colors
  • An exclusive “Rock Face Texture” less absorptive than concrete materials which needs no sealing… and, will last the life of the building
  • A consistent, permanent and integral color through the entire body of each durable brick

The plant is also producing bricks using white clay, which gives a crisper, cleaner color tone in particular to gray and pastel bricks. Some of the most popular colors produced at General Shale’s CCP now include Oatmeal, Silverstone, Graystone, Chestnut, Cascade White, Baystone, Tan, Smoke Gray and Cascade White Rock Face.
