Inside a GIANT Brick Factory - How Clay Bricks Are Made

it boggles my mind that we've reached a stage where we WANT imperfections in the bricks to make them look old.
I just love watching automation in action. Amazing to watch. Thanks!
My father worked for Brampton Brick in the 70's. His job was stacking bricks on pallets for shipping. He told me it was back breaking work. Good thing it's all automated now. Too bad it employs way less people though.
@ILGustavo I never knew that. Did you also get big hands? If you remember a Afonso Almeida he was my dad.
@ILGustavo Thank you.
My Father and me used to brick skid until the Farber Missouri called NARCO shut down. It was a great job but yes back breaking. I miss my job and my Father.
Wow, incredible how the automated process makes this so efficient and keeps brick prices down too !
@Hello Jason how are you doing?
@@lydiaanderson582 I am well ho ware you?
@@jason.martin Good I loved to meet new people and get to know each other with time and patience if you don't mind?
Thanks for this video. Very informative. I would never see this in real life but this was almost as good.
Interesting stuff. Largest brick manufacturer in North America, and only 7 human beings work there. They aren't quite there yet, but the factory of the future will consist one man and one dog. The man will be there to feed the dog, and the dog will be there to attack the man if he tries to touch any of the machines.
Great video.. Like a better than an episode of How it's made..... Dynamite!!!
With emphasis on "better", less hysteri, more relevant details and focus on the things that are actually interesting and not only "wow, cool, look how quick that thing spins".
It's amazing how often the "professionals" in traditional media find themselves overtaken by youtubers.
thanks for posting, something most of us will never see.
Good job
great! interesting producing technology at such a big factory😀 it would be exciting to learn the history of this organization since little business
I miss working at NARCO in Farber Missouri.
Interesting for sure the first and only brick plant I ever seen was in Washington DC it was in operation in 1960 and had been there for years
I work at a brick plant like this. I’m a kiln operator. We made 70 million brick in 2022
im wondering if its worth starting a smaller scale factory in toronto
Amazing process! do you know what fuel the use for the firing? is it natural gas? can they use other fuels?
Does anyone have the manufacturer info on the electric eye @2:36 I am looking to put a similar system into our process. Thank you!
Hmm - that's an awful lot of dust. Is it explosive?+
Tks Steve. Now I want to know more about how shale becomes clay, e.g., the physics. I wish I had a link to this company.
Clay sintered decorative bricks are the best building materials. Many building partition boards in the United States use plywood, which I think is toxic. If you produce clay sintered partition boards, there will be a big market, right?
do they use for baking these bricks
I need a job amazing work.😧
What’s the name this technology kiln?
I,m looking to buy used bricks plant line for export to Serbia
Good job I ned more information and your business
Wow thank you for making this. I like how they scavenge the heat from the kiln. I wonder what their electricity bill is! Easily low to mid six figures per month, right? With such a large scale and efficiency, am I correct to assume that margins are incredibly thin? If they make 800k bricks per day, and there are 7 machine operators, they make a little over 100k bricks/day each. That means that each machine operator could make 5 million bricks in a little under 50 days. Does that mean they only operate periodically or are there more employees in other roles included into the 5 million bricks/worker/year figure? Working 300 days out of a year at an 800k brick/day production rate would require around 48 employees to satisfy the 5 million bricks per worker per year figure. Still quite an efficient business, or am I missing something? Very interesting nonetheless! I imagine their lean operation is more resilient to disruptions like the pandemic, but I wonder how long their raw material stockpile could last in a transportation shortage scenario... Obviously they are highly exposed to the energy market, but most people are anyways. I think demand for quality building products will be strong in the coming years, and, at the risk of sounding naive, even in the coming decades. Very cool business!
Update: so it turns out Brampton Brick Limited is publicly traded in Canada, and the share price has been doing some interesting things! It was around $5 CAD until last year a private buyer offered to buy out all class A shares at $12 CAD (there are over 9 million class A shares, so the deal was definitely over $100 million CAD). I guess they did the research and found that this brick business really is a monster. Now shares are trading at a little under $10 CAD, so it looks like there is still some ambivalence about the deal priced in. Wish I had found this video sooner, haha! Thanks again for posting, theres so much to be learned from just this short video!
I'd bet their exposure to mining is much more than energy and that is the major risk in the supply chain, an industrial kiln probably isn't that expensive to keep at temp after the initial heat up.
I wonder what their margin is per brick since labor costs on a few employees seem inconsequential at the volume they do.
Erik - I was wondering about the numbers too. Unless it takes longer than one day to run the bricks through the kiln, due to the slow warm up, hold at peak temp. for a certain amount of time, then the cool down process.
I’m a kiln operator at pine hall brick and I’m not sure what our gas bill is but our power bill is like 100k a month
You think they bought the brick that made the killn or made them
TRolly??? Kiln cars!!
I want work in factory brick and I have Experience
