Mission Statement

For more than 100 years we have produced bricks to the individual tastes of our customers. But our mission always remains the same – to satisfy our customers’ demands by producing unique and diverse clinkers.

We strive to meet our customers’ wishes by delivering a wide range of top quality, uniquely patterned bricks in a wide range of colours and sizes. Utilizing the only operational ring kiln (Ringofen) in the state of North Rhine-Westphalia, we focus on creating niche products to secure our unique selling position.

Our Goal is to produce the highest quality clinker bricks – the hardest, high-fired bricks, made from natural resources, without adding any chemical or artificial ingredient.

Many of our products are custom designed to meet clients’ specific needs. With our depth of expert knowledge we can develop products suitable for new constructions, or which replicate old materials required for restoration. We furnish our customers with all relevant information and advice, and work with them to obtain their goals.

Our business has been in the Gillrath family for four generations and we have long-term, sustainable goals. Our partnership with our employees ensures high product and service quality, and they are the reason for our success.

We want to thank our customers for putting trust in our products and ourselves. We look forward to new, challenging projects with them.

Kind regards

Gillrath GmbH & Co. KG
