I bought the Vimaq press after a few consultations and decided to go in person to take the on-site course and bring the press home. I was very well looked after and got all the tips for making a good brick. I sold 12,000 bricks in the first month and I am already thinking about a hydraulic one! Thank you for the full attention after the sale. I was struck that they even answer on Saturdays and Sundays, which shows what sets the company apart.

Sr. SabinoRondônia · VM-12,5x25 Gold press

I hardly need to say much about this company: just call and talk to the consultant for ten minutes to understand the difference in soil-cement know-how, the courtesy and how easy they are to deal with. Everything as agreed. They serve customers even on holidays and at any hour. I researched everything and the machines really are the most robust and long-lasting. Very soon I will move up to the hydraulic press.

Luiz Antonio SilvaCivil engineer · VM-Master press

The Vimaq team’s service was great, from sales to technical support. Fair price with quality, quick after-sales service and ongoing technical support. I recommend them 100%.

Prof. RafaelUniversity professor · VM-15x30 Gold press and TR1 Crusher

At first I was wary, because I am not used to buying over the phone, but the salesman made me trust the company and we closed the deal. After five months, I give this testimonial with the certainty that I am satisfied with the quality of the equipment: during the adaptation period, the Vimaq team was always ready to answer my questions. I recommend the equipment, the service and the after-sales technical support, first class.

Sr. WanderleyConstruction company in Goiânia (GO) · VH-12,5x25 hydraulic press

I did a lot of research before reaching Vimaq, since I am outside Brazil. I liked the service and the team’s knowledge: in a good conversation you can tell they know the business. Everything as agreed, with on-time delivery and impeccable after-sales service, even outside business hours. Soon I plan to expand to two hydraulic presses, 12.5 × 25 and 15 × 30.

Sr. RichardCivil engineer, Africa · VM-15x30 press

After a lot of research, I had no doubts about the value of Vimaq presses. Unmatched service, quick and well-founded in every answer. Five minutes of conversation with the consultant is enough to be sure this is the company. Even on a holiday, at 11 p.m., I was helped with a question about my soil, which is rare these days. You can tell they work with love, enthusiasm and professionalism.

João Carlos SilveiraVimaq customer · VM-Master press

Ten out of ten. The service throughout the negotiation was perfect, attentive and helpful. The deal went smoothly and benefited the institution, both in the quality and type of materials and in delivery logistics. Three machines were bought for our units.

Carlos Antonio Macambira TôrresUFRJ professor · Three machines for the institution

Excellent service! Complete assistance at every stage. The geographic distance did not get in the way of communication or follow-up. Congratulations! Everything as agreed. A 100% reliable company!

Maria José SabinoFortaleza (CE)

The Vimaq team’s service is exceptional, both on the equipment and on the production method, soil analysis and building techniques with ecological brick. Ten out of ten. I bought the press in installments and, when I finished the shed, I asked them to send the equipment. Ten out of ten again.

Alexandre SoutoVimaq customer · VM-12,5x25 press and Crusher

I visited the factory in Roseira and bought two new machines. I was very well looked after and got all the explanations and information I needed. The presses are working well and I believe they will have a long working life. I am satisfied with Vimaq’s service and equipment.

Antonio Carlos M. GonçalvesVimaq customer · Two presses

I was extremely well looked after by the Vimaq team, from the negotiation to buying the press, and I received the course with full dedication, leaving no doubts. I picked up the press by car and brought it home disassembled in the trunk, with no problem at all. I researched other companies a lot and, without a doubt, Vimaq was the one I liked most: a high-quality product and a safe, serious company that is dedicated to what it does.

Welinton Marques BarrosoVimaq customer · VM-12,5x25 press

At first I felt a bit unsure and chose to travel more than 1,000 km to pick up the product at the factory. The Vimaq people looked after me very well, picked me up at the bus station and gave me the training to make bricks and operate the press. From what I saw, the crusher makes the work much easier: the person who mixes the batch has time left to do other things.

Laureci Rodrigues CarvalhoVimaq customer · Press and TR1 Crusher

Excellent service. A team that is always helpful and quick to reply. A smooth transaction, with proposals and deadlines met. Security in the purchase, no doubt about it!

Everton AndreassaVimaq customer

I was very well looked after. I paid on Friday and received the machine on Sunday: you can trust them, they are very effective in negotiations and in delivering the equipment. I was very satisfied!

Does the ecological brick need to go in a kiln?

How many bricks does a manual press make a day?

From 1,000 to 1,500 bricks a day, depending on the operators’ experience.

What kind of soil can be used to make the brick?

Weathered subsoil or soil from a hillside cut. In the training course you learn how to choose and prepare the soil.

Do I need the crusher to get started?
