Lignacite Concrete Masonry Products has so far used over 10,000m2 of Lignacite into the construction of The Shard's 306 metre glass spire.

Like other buildings in London such as The Gherkin, The Shard will rely on the intrinsic strength and durability of Lignacite, which is being used at its very core.

Lignacite concrete blocks comprise a range of medium density loadbearing units, used in internal or external walls. Lignacite blocks contribute to sound environmental practices as they contain graded wood particles, a selected waste wood product as an alternative aggregate.

They also provide exceptional sound reduction qualities and have the robustness of a dense block while still providing the benefits associated with a medium density block.
