Anyone recognise these lightweight concrete blocks?

What a mess.

 

Anyhow, the palette has Durox printed on it. But the blocks look long and skinny to me, not a size Durox currently make. The ones laid flat, inside the front door, are presumaly around 70mm thick to get three courses per upright block.

They laid them flat wherever the stone cladding wasn't, to make up the width. The innermost leaf is, I'm pretty sure, 100mm thick. Then a 50mm empty cavity, then 70mm outer leaf clad with ~150mm cropped walling sandstone.

Durox don't seem to do this size anymore but I was hoping to find some data on it.
