Newsletter October 2026
Dear TRIQBRIQ community,
on 18 and 19 November we will be at the Klimafestival für die Bauwende (Climate Festival for the Building Transition) in Berlin, where our new WS20 wall system celebrates its premiere. This issue of our newsletter also covers new sales contacts, a project in Klötze and people from our system partner network.
NEW: THE WS20 WALL SYSTEM CELEBRATES ITS PREMIERE
More compact, lighter, more economical: With the WS20, the TRIQBRIQ system gains a new exterior wall. It is 20 centimetres thick, five centimetres slimmer than the WS25. The principle remains what defines TRIQBRIQ: BRIQs made of solid wood, laid in a bond and joined form-fit with beech wood dowels – entirely without glue.
- Handy format: The new standard BRIQ measures 40 × 20 × 20 centimetres and is easy to place by hand.
- More space: With the same outer edge, a house with 40 metres of exterior wall gains around two square metres of floor area per storey.
- Less material: Around one fifth less wood per square metre of wall than the WS25.
- Complete system: BRIQs with and without tenons, half BRIQs, lintel and column. A few standard components are all it takes to build the entire wall.
On 18 and 19 November we will show the WS20 live for the first time: at our stand and on the stages of the Klimafestival für die Bauwende in Berlin. Dimensions, components and product data sheets are now available on the new WS20 product page.
FREE TICKETS FOR THE KLIMAFESTIVAL
On 18 and 19 November, the Klimafestival by BauNetz and Heinze brings architects, planners and construction companies together at STATION Berlin. A limited number of free tickets is available for our partners and contacts. Anyone who would like to experience the WS20 on site can contact Lewin Fricke by email: l.fricke@triqbriq.de. We will gladly send you a voucher code for free registration. Tickets are allocated subject to availability.
FIVE NEW SALES PARTNERS
Since 15 October, five new sales partners have joined our network. This gives planners, construction companies and clients in further regions a direct contact for the TRIQBRIQ system: Lena Thiede in the Bremen, Hamburg and Kiel area; Mathias Ranz in the Ulm, Augsburg and Munich area; Uwe Burkhardt in the Karlsruhe, Stuttgart and Heilbronn area; Jens Neumann in the Wiesbaden, Mannheim and Saarbrücken area; and Timo Lohrey in the Frankfurt, Würzburg and Marburg area.
At the same time, we are looking for further self-employed sales agents for postcode areas 0, 1 and 9 – in particular around Dresden, Leipzig and Chemnitz, Berlin, Schwerin and Rostock, as well as Bamberg, Nuremberg and Passau. If you know the construction industry and would like to look after a region independently, get in touch with us by email. You will find all information about the position on our careers page.
For a better overview, we have built an interactive map of our sales partner network on our website.
A ROOM DIVIDER FOR VR-BANK OSTALB
In the premises of VR-Bank Ostalb eG in Aalen, we built a room divider made of BRIQs together with the bank, the Stiftung Haus Lindenhof foundation and the City of Aalen. Stiftung Haus Lindenhof produced and delivered the BRIQs, and the assembly was a joint effort.
The foundation runs a workshop for people with disabilities in Schwäbisch Gmünd, with which we have been working for around two and a half years. More than 1,000 BRIQs a month are now produced there. In our view, this small project symbolises the building transition: it only works together – and here it worked out wonderfully and was a real pleasure. Thanks to Conny Zoller of VR-Bank for the idea and organisation, and to everyone involved on site.
CONSTRUCTION SITE INSIGHT: KLÖTZE
In Klötze in the Altmark region, a two-storey single-family house is being built together with the carpentry and roofing company Thorsten Stielau. The exterior and interior walls as well as the garage consist of almost 2,900 BRIQs. The shell was erected by three to four people in 14 days.
For the client, the indoor climate was the focus: “It was central for us to create an indoor climate that builds on the qualities of our previous half-timbered house with clay. The combination of solid timber construction and clay allows for a naturally regulated indoor climate. Added to this are the reusability of the building blocks and the clear systematics of the TRIQBRIQ principle.”
The design by AT Architektur follows the 25-centimetre grid of the BRIQs; many structural details were developed jointly by the trades involved. As a TRIQBRIQ system partner, Zimmerei Stielau is responsible for the execution. Apart from the remaining painting work and the floor covering, the house is complete; the façade work with clinker brick slips is still to follow. In total, around 61,500 kilograms of CO₂e are stored in the building.
SYSTEM PARTNERS FROM OUR NETWORK
TRIQBRIQ projects are created through the interplay of planning, craftsmanship and execution. The single-family house in Klötze shows this interplay in practice: from joint planning with AT Architektur through to implementation, Zimmerei Stielau works with our system there. Our system partner network brings together further partners with different areas of expertise. If you are looking for a suitable partner for a building project or would like to become part of the network yourself, you will find more information on our website.
THORSTEN STIELAU ZIMMEREI UND DACHDECKEREI
From a successful project to the introduction of a new system partner: Zimmerei und Dachdeckerei Thorsten Stielau from Wolfsburg-Vorsfelde has stood for timber construction, roofing and renovation for more than 25 years. As a master craftsman business, the team supports projects from the first design to execution – from roof trusses and single- and multi-family houses to storey extensions and façade construction. In Klötze, Stielau is already contributing this experience to the first joint TRIQBRIQ project. We look forward to many more projects together.
3E ARCHITEKTUR
Another new partner is 3E Architektur from Leer. The practice supports sustainable new-build concepts from the first idea to implementation, aligning design, budget and energy and technical requirements. Owner Birun Ercan contributes experience in building architecture as well as working as an energy consultant and expert for building damage assessment.
