The Brick Factory is the location for the end of the first chapter and the beginning of the second chapter of the DLC, The Sacrifice. It also serves as the safe room for The Survivors between the two chapters.
History[]
The industrial complex covers a vast area in Rayford, and displays some historical industrial features of Rayford, such as the old-style baking ovens and the other processes of brick production. The large factory has several old-style ovens to help bake the bricks, a large outdoor storage yard and shipping areas, docking area for ships, and industrial grain-like towers. The company uses mine shaft carts and a mini rail system to help with the brick processes, some used to transport gravel and sand and others to move stacks of bricks. Trucks used the storage areas to drop off ingredients to make the bricks, such as sand and clay, and flatbed trucks or containers pick up the bricks and ship them off to their clients. Barges near the docks may have also helped with the brick processes, as they are seen off-loading gravel from its cargo hold. The company may have also been a contractor to help renovate and rebuild the Rayford Historic Underground Tour, where similar stacks of bricks can be seen.
Current Status[]
With the Infection breaking out all over the Southeastern areas of the United States, CEDA as well as other private contractors may have also commandeered the brick factory to divert and create mass production of bricks to help with containing the Infection. They used these bricks to barricade buildings and set up walls; however, it seems that while in the middle of the brick production, the Infection eventually hit Rayford and the factory was overrun by the Infected. A crashed barge containing gravel or sand is seen, brick workers wander the factory grounds as Infected, and by the time the time the Survivors find it, some pieces of machinery are still active, bricks are seen in the middle of the production line, and there are large amounts of bricks in storage ready to be transported.
After fighting the train car Tank and the horde it attracts, The Survivors enter the factory through its storage yard and the cargo bays, eventually finding a way into the brick production line. On the far end corner of the brick oven room, they come upon the factory's offices and use it as a safe room.
Once the Survivors are well rested, they continue on through the factory through the yard, past the raw material storage towers and truck parking lot toward the barge docks.

Notes[]
- The Worker Infected seen in the factory were most likely its own workers, infected and turned while the factory was still operational.
- The brick factory can been seen by both groups of Survivors.
- Bill, Louis, Francis and Zoey go through the factory to get to Rayford Port.
- Nick, Ellis, Coach and Rochelle can only see the factory across the river when they leave the safe room in the final chapter of The Passing.
- It seems as though other Survivors have passed by the factory and used it as a temporary safe haven. There are signs of post-Infection inhabitation, such as car batteries hooked up to fluorescent lights to create light fixtures, and the graffiti on the walls.
- The barge may have been docked to help off-load gravel as resources for more bricks, and crashed during the mooring operation, whether because the pilot was attacked or contaminated by the Green Flu.
- One of the graffiti messages in the safe room is written in Japanese, and Louis is able to read it.
- Also in the safe room, there is a poster on the wall of a man with a ram's head, with the words "Welcome To The End." This is a reference to Baphomet, the Illuminati, and other conspiracy theories.
