Engineering bricks are specified for their physical characteristics and not their appearance.
They have high compressive strength and low water absorption and are classified only by these properties.
Their use for facing work should be avoided, as they are not subject to the same level of inspection for surface irregularities or colour variation as a facing brick.
Where aesthetic performance is a major consideration, facing bricks must be used
Hepworth Terracotta airbricks allow the free movement of air to ventilate buildings. Terracotta airbricks can complement the external finish of a property and will weather well with the surrounding brickwork.
The dense concrete common brick from Marshalls is suitable for use above and below a damp proofing course level. It can be used independently as well as in conjunction with dense aggregate blocks that provide strength and density.
If your project demands a sleek, high-end, contemporary finish, the Vandersanden Lithium 65mm Facing Brick is the perfect solution. Moving away from traditional reds and buffs, the Lithium brick delivers a dramatic multi-grey and charcoal appearance. Its hand-moulded creased texture catches the light beautifully, adding depth, character, and a premium architectural feel to any building facade.
A premium-quality, high-strength clay engineering brick manufactured by Ibstock at the Atlas factory. Combining a minimum compressive strength of 60N/mm2 with low water absorption, this vertically perforated, smooth wirecut red brick is engineered to deliver exceptional structural integrity and frost resistance in the most demanding environments.
