LOW MAINTENANCE

No need to paint or other treatments

durability. They are strong, reliable

and relatively maintenance free.

EXPANSIVE RANGE

Brick’s natural colours and textures

enable you to create both striking

façade contrasts and more

traditional neutral colour schemes.

SUPERIOR STRENGTH

Clay products are stronger than

concrete and other light weight

materials and also provide a safer

and more secure home from the

outside environment.

AFFORDABLE

Cost effective building product

materials that increase the value

of your investment or project from

day one, for generations to come.

ENERGY EFFICIENT

Combined with intelligent passive

building design elements, clay

bricks can help moderate building

temperatures and reduce

energy consumption.

SUSTAINABLE

Clay is a natural resource which has

been used for centuries because it

retains its colour forever as well as

its durability. Architects, engineers

and specifiers continue to appreciate

the advantages of using clay products.

UNIQUE AND VERSATILE

Shaped bricks are used in conjunction

with standard bricks to create distinctive

architectural features, adding detail and appeal.

Unlike polystyrene or fibreglass mouldings that

are simply glued into place, shaped bricks are as

durable and colourfast as conventional bricks

and are available in a variety of colours.

PLINTH CB5, CB6, CB7

Used to extend base

brickwork and form a

decorative ‘ledge’ around

a building. Can also

create a bevelled course

or wall capping.

SINGLE BULLNOSE CB9

Commonly used in window

sills, as step treads, or as

a user-friendly capping on

a low retaining wall, brick

seat or planter box.

SQUINT CB15

Allows brickwork to turn

a 45-degree corner (eg.

at a bay window) without

interrupting the bond

pattern or leaving an

unsightly cut mark down

the corner.

DOUBLE BULLNOSE CB10

Commonly used as

a capping brick on

freestanding walls and

parapets. Also used in

vertical applications such

as garage entrance piers.

REVEAL CB47

Commonly used in wall

openings, windows, and

doors to add a bevelled

edge feature.

CB SILL

Commonly laid vertically

with a f lush joint type to

provide an angled sill

detail under windows.

Mortex

Raked Ironed Struck Flush

MORTEX is a factory manufactured, quality assured premixed

M4 rated mortar solution. Its consistency can save labour time,

increase efficiency, remove the need for on site blending, and it

is compliant with AS3700:2018. MORTEX takes the guess work

out of mortar blending and reduces the potential for under

strength, non compliant mortar use.

This can ultimately reduce potential liabilities, saving money

and time on rectifications. With the adoption of ISO9001:2008

principles, the mortar constituents are accurately measured

and blended in a controlled environment to ensure consistent,

homogeneous mortar is produced on-site.

White mortar is currently the most popular colour. This is

made by mixing light coloured cement and white sand and

results in a traditional brick and mortar look. Mortar can be

coloured by adding powdered or liquid pigments to the mortar

as it is being mixed by the bricklayer. It can also be tinted to

match the brick colour, giving a very even wall colour.

Please confirm with your bricklayer what their mortar

colouring offering is before making your final decision.

FOR MORE INFORMATION ON MORTEX PLEASE CONTACT US ON:

13-Brick (13-2742).

Mortar colour

There are four common mortar finishes and these various

finishes result in different shadow lines on the wall. A raked

finish will create a deep shadow in the mortar joint. This brings

out the horizontal lines of the brickwork (and the vertical lines

to a lesser extent) and it is the most common finish. Ironed and

struck joints also create shadow lines, but these are much finer

and more subtle. A flush joint doesn’t allow shadow lines to

form at all, giving the wall a flatter, more unified look. Using a

mortar colour to match the brick will take this a step further.

the soil, adjacent material or ground

water, in coastal areas exposed to

attack from windborne salt spray, or

and ground salts.

SOLAR ABSORPTANCE RATING

In the design of energy efficient

buildings, the architects and consulting

engineers need to be able to calculate

the heat loss or gain of materials used

to construct these buildings.

For this reason, our product range

has been categorised into three

colour groups

Light (L) < 0.475

Medium (M) 0.475 - 0.70

Dark (D) > 0.70

to assist architects and consulting

engineers with their calculations.
