The Former Tangrong Brick Kiln ({{zh|c=中都唐榮磚窯廠|p=Zhōngdōu Tángróng Zhuānyáochǎng}}) is a former brick manufacturing factory in Sanmin District, Kaohsiung, Taiwan.[1]

History

The building was originally a tile factory established in 1899 by the Japanese government. Latest technology was introduced to this kiln and after around two decades, the brick production in this factory accounted for around 70% of bricks in Taiwan. Demand for bricks grew exponentially as the economy prospered, thus the government integrated all existing kilns in Taiwan in 1913 to form the {{nihongo|Taiwan Renga Company|臺灣煉瓦會社打狗工場|lead=yes}}. Six more kilns capable of high yield bricks were added and the bricks produced here was branded the Taiwan Renga.[2]

Republic of China

However, after the company financial crisis in 1957, the Ministry of Economic Affairs acquired the factory. During the period of rapid economic growth, the kiln brought produced high profit for Tangrong but eventually the entire factory was shut down in 1985 due to rising labor costs and environmental concern. Its administrative building however was still continue to operate until 2002.
