What to know locally in Gauteng
Many small yards in Orange Farm, Ivory Park and Ga-Rankuwa started with one egg-laying machine on a home slab and a single phase vibrator. Machine sellers and mould makers work from the industrial areas of Germiston, Benoni, Wadeville and Rosslyn, and most keep moulds for maxis, blocks and pavers. Electric machines suit sites with power, but keep a petrol or diesel option in mind for plots on the edge of Hammanskraal or Bronkhorstspruit.
Bricks, blocks and brick making in Gauteng
Johannesburg started out with a brickfields of its own, and the province has never stopped building. Today the demand is spread across township extensions in Soshanguve, Tembisa and Diepsloot, back rooms and boundary walls in Soweto and Mamelodi, estates and complexes in Midrand, Centurion and Lanseria, and factories from Germiston to Rosslyn. Cement brick and block yards sit on the edge of nearly every township, many of them small businesses running an egg-laying machine on a home slab, while clay brickyards and machine sellers work from the industrial belts. Sand comes in by tipper from pits south and west of the metros. Highveld frost in winter and violent summer storms are the two things to cover fresh bricks against.
Typical brick and block moulds requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners: plastic moulds for making your own pavers, stepping stones or garden edging
- Builders and bricklaying contractors: an extra machine mould so one machine makes bricks and blocks for a job
- Housing developers and complexes: spare moulds to keep machines running through a long housing project
Local tips for Gauteng
Common here: cement maxi bricks for back rooms, face brick for estates, brick machines for startups. Ask each supplier or contractor about this: ask whether the price is at the yard or delivered, and who offloads the pallets. Where they work from: block yards in every township; clay yards and machine sellers in the industrial belts.
Brick and Block Moulds usually suit brickyards, paver makers and DIY builders, made or supplied like this: steel machine moulds, or plastic and rubber. For homeowners, the biggest group here, that usually means plastic moulds for making your own pavers, stepping stones or garden edging. On the weather side: hard winter frost on fresh bricks; summer storms wash out uncovered curing rows.
