About us

    FORMBLOCK AUSTRALIA PTY LTD (Australian business number 85 072 393 956) is an Australian company based in the Blue Mountains, New South Wales, Australia, which has been involved in earth building since the early 1980's. With a background in both adobe (mud brick) and pisé (rammed earth) construction, Steve McGregor, along with his colleagues at FORMBLOCK have developed and thoroughly tested the FORMBLOCK system to now be one of the market leaders in this field of earth building. The system has been used in a range of conditions throughout Australia, New Zealand and the USA. It has been thoroughly tested by pofessionals, architects and owner builders.

   At FORMBLOCK we believe in the general promotion of earth building as a major contributor to the principles of sustainable living, and reducing the demand on eco-sensitive resources. Our objective is to produce a product that can do both this, and significantly streamline the effort that is normally associated with traditional methods of earth construction.
