This 143-acre site in Clinton, Oklahoma, provided clay for millions of Acme Brick. When brickmaking ended, we built a lake that today teems with fish and wildlife. One of the few traces of the site’s former use is its name: Acme Brick Park. optimization, and have added trucks that run on a biodiesel blend. In the 1970s, we invested heavily to reduce our plants’ natural gas
consumption by up to two-thirds. Energy usage per brick continues to fall, as Acme has cut another 17.4% over the last five years alone. We have voluntarily invested in clean-air technology to slash kiln emissions, and pioneered wetlands revitalization of runoff, so that water leaves our Perla plant site cleaner than when it arrived. We have built 17 lakes, rich with wildlife and vegetation, on reclaimed raw material sites. Acme Brick joins you in earthfriendly building with every brick we make.
