I-XL has a long history in the brick and stone business. Over 100 years ago, I-XL began as brick makers and, over time, have evolved into premier suppliers of brick and stone in Western Canada.

I-XL is a family owned and operated company, currently in its fourth generation. It’s head office is located in Surrey, British Columbia.

Thanks to readily available natural gas and unique clay bodies, brick was made at the Medicine Hat plant from 1886 to 2010 when a flood halted operations. Herb Sissons built the original I-XL Redcliff plant, where clay was mined underground and then eventually fed into mechanical brick presses and set by hand into the mechanical down-draft kilns.

By 1913, the company had already switched to the extrusion process and began making wire cut bricks and hollow building tiles. With the formation of a parent company known as I-XL Industries Ltd. in 1912, the “I-XL” mantra – meaning “I excel” – became an early 20^th century mission statement which was eventually stamped into the frog of every pressed brick from 1921 onwards.

I-XL acquired the Medicine Hat plant in 1929, which was established in 1886. In 2003, our two Alberta operations were consolidated into the Medicine Hat site. At this same time, robotic equipment as installed for our dry-pressed line. This resulted in more capacity, faster production and better health and safety for workers.

In 2010, there was a flood at the facilities and the plant closed operations. Though this could have been a devastating turn of events for I-XL, the company persevered and moved into the distribution side of the business.

I-XL is now the major distributor of manufactured stone veneers for Eldorado Stone and carries a wide array of natural stone veneers as well as our tried and true brick. Like the brick and stone we sell I-XL stands the test of time.
