Tea Brick SS3

SKU: EP-CZ02

Category: Sustainable Materials

The Tea Brick SS3 is a modular bio-based architectural unit crafted from recycled tea waste and natural binders, transforming post-consumption tea residues into a durable, textured building element. Characterized by its granular tea-fiber surface and interlocking brick geometry, SS3 offers a warm, earth-toned appearance with subtle organic variation, suitable for both interior and exterior applications.

Designed as a structural surface system rather than a flat panel, Tea Brick SS3 introduces depth, rhythm, and breathability to walls, allowing light, shadow, and air to interact naturally with the material.

Why It Matters

The Tea Brick SS3 redefines how organic waste can function at an architectural scale. By converting discarded tea into a structural, expressive building unit, it demonstrates a practical model of circular material innovation—where waste becomes permanence.

SS3 reflects MIOLISM’s approach to sustainability as a system, not a surface: a material that performs, ages naturally, and contributes to healthier, more responsible built environments.
