About Randers Tegl
MORE ABOUT RANDERS TEGL
Randers Tegl is the largest brick supplier in Northern Europe and delivers products worldwide. Our continuous product development is based on more than 100 years of experience, technical pride and curiosity to create innovative projects with bricks.
FAMILIY HELD GROUP SINCE 1911
The story of the Randers Tegl Group began in 1911 when a 27-year-old engineer Carl Theodor Piper bought his first brickwork. Ever since, the Randers Tegl Group has owned and developed a number of brickworks in Denmark, always pursuing the best clay deposits that Scandinavia has to offer. Working for more than a century with one of nature’s most sustainable and resilient materials means, that it’s rooted deeply in our DNA to build for generations.
The Randers Tegl Group now runs five modern brickworks and is the leading manufacturer of structural clay products in Scandinavia.
THE BRICKWORKS
HAMMERSHØJ BRICKWORKS
In 1953, Randers Tegl built a new, much more mechanised brickworks south of Hammershøj, where there were large deposits of high-quality clay. Hammershøj Brickworks has since become one of the largest and most advanced brickworks in northern Europe.
GANDRUP BRICKWORKS
This massive brickwork company has been part of the Group since 1967. In the 1980s, a new operation alongside the existing brickworks was developed, followed by another in 1989. Gandrup Brickworks is now the largest plant in northern Europe, with a capacity of approximately 75 million bricks.
HØJSLEV BRICKWORKS
In 1983, with the third generation of Pipers at the helm, the Group acquired Højslev Teglværk. The clay deposits here are the best in Denmark for roof tiles – which was, of course, the idea behind the acquisition. The old brickworks were converted into the largest and most advanced specialist works in Denmark for the production of clay roof tiles.
VINDØ BRICKWORKS
In 2007, after 50 years of fruitful collaboration, the Randers Tegl Group acquired the efficiently-operated Vindø Teglværk near Hobro.
LAUMANS GLAZED MASTERPIECES
Collaboration with German roof tile factory Laumans began in 1997, when Randers Tegl took over pan-Scandinavian marketing of the unique glazed and engobed folded roof tiles by the Laumans Brothers. After several years of collaboration, the Randers Tegl Group is now the main shareholder of Laumans Brothers.
CARLSBERG BRICKWORKS – WHEN REALITY OUTSTRIPS IMAGINATION
Our game-changing prestressed brick beams were developed at Carlsberg Brickworks. The special bond we use makes it possible to produce brick beams to span large gaps or as ceiling and brick elements that defy construction with regular brickwork. Our special bond technique is now a standard in the field of prefabricated beams, since our structures are technically superior when compared with the poorly reinforced structures.
OUR KNOW-HOW MAKES YOUR VISION REALITY
Our experience and know-how will enable you to realise even the most demanding brickwork projects. We have 30 years of experience of producing prefabricated brick elements. The outcome is a visually superior solution every time because our unique production method ensures that finances, technology and design add up to a greater whole.
