WE’VE PUT THE GROOVE INTO BRICK CLADDING

UNIFIED BRICK CLADDING

MECHANICALLY SECURED AND SUPPORTED

Our patent-pending brick slip retention technology, seamlessly integrates our purpose-cut or extruded brick slips, steel support rails and mortar into a single, cohesive brick cladding finish.

  • Our purpose-made steel support rails, are fabricated to provide the mechanical retention of our purpose-made brick slips and additional key attachment into our purpose-made mortar.

    They are perforated to provide a true ventilated brick cladding, allowing our brick slips to breathe.

  • Purpose-made brick slips, cut from full bricks or through an extrusion process using natural kiln fired clay.

    Each brick slip is supplied with our groove attachment, to ensure every brick slip, even corners, is mechanically secured to our purpose-made steel support rails.

  • Our purpose-made mortar supplied in ready to mix 25kg bags provides two essential functions.

    It provides additional structure and strength by fusing our purpose-made steel support rails within it and setting around our mechanically secured purpose-made brick slips.

    Available in a range of colours, it also provides the aesthetic finish to create beautiful brick architecture.
