The hollow clay blocks by Jindal Ceramica, commonly known as Porotherm in the market, have gained an edge over traditional bricks in a very short time. The term Porotherm is used for this type of brick due to its preferred thermal insulation attributes. The perforation of the clay brick provides an exceptional walling system which facilitates thermal insulation.
The hollow blocks are primarily used as infill masonry for non-load-bearing wall construction. The product is especially beneficial for constructing apartments, independent houses, villas, hospitals, educational institutions, commercial buildings and warehouses.
The Hollow blocks are designed to provide cost- effective wall construction along with better efficiency, durability, ease of handling , thermal insulation and plenty of other benefits. These blocks are of two types:
Non-Load Bearing Clay Hollow Blocks (Horizontal perforation) and Load Bearing Clay Hollow Blocks (Vertical perforation).
The Horizontally Perforated Clay Hollow Blocks are primarily used as infill masonry for non load bearing wall construction. The product is especially beneficial for high rise apartment buildings, Houses, Hospitals, Educational Institutions, Commercial Buildings etc.
The Vertically Perforated Clay Hollow Blocks are ideal for up to Ground+1 floors. The high compressive strength of these blocks enables the load bearing construction. This concept eliminates the columns which helps save the structural costs. These blocks can also be an excellent replacement to AAC blocks and conventional bricks.

Demonstration of horizontal and vertical hollow block wall
Perforations in hollow blocks entrap air and provide excellent thermal insulation that's 45% better as compared to conventional walling material.They keep the interior areas cool in summers and warm in winters. The perforation in the blocks act as a soundproofing system.
The hollow blocks are 100% natural making the blocks a natural walling material; 40% less clay is used to make horizontal hollow blocks than conventional bricks. It makes hollow blocks a green building material.
The wastage of blocks is as low as 2%, which means you can optimise the number of blocks required for construction.
Clay Hollow blocks are fired at 1000 degree celcius and have 11% water absorption that prevents water seepage into the building and dampness on the walls. Thus low risk of dampness or cracks on walls
High strength due the vertical perforations which means improved productivity in masonry. It's also easy to chase and chisel for electrical and plumbing conduits making it simple to install all types of fixtures.
Perforated clay hollowblocks are more than 50% lighter than conventional walling material thus allowing substantial savings on structural cost due to reduction in dead load.
