"bricks"

“Having considered both performance and materiality factors, The Winton was designed with a green conscience. Reclaimed bricks provided such an interesting personality to the build, so it was important that the soft character of a natural timber species delivered the contrasting features” - Orbis Construction. Due to Victorian ash’s natural blonde tones, IronAsh has the flexibility to grey off or to be stained to meet any design needs. IronAsh is the combination of GoodWood Victorian ash and unique water-based additives to give a H3 treated exterior timber.

Material & ApplicationECOTONE masonry stains applied to brickworkOutcomeThe owner completed some renovations which an extension on their home. Our ECOTONE team were contracted to colour the new brickwork to match with the existing bricks and provided an excellent finish.TestimonialI have just completed a huge extension to my home and struggled finding the exact brick to match.Fortunately, I was given Wayne Duncan's (ECOTONE) number and he set my mind at ease by saying "it will not be a problem as he will come and colour match to our house brick". I couldn't believe this was possible. I couldn’t find the actual brick colour of our home anywhere in this country. Collecting bricks with the shape, size and texture was my goal but they were every colour you could think of, people thought I was mad. I was just amazed at how Wayne and his team worked and created a masterpiece, they have done the most outstanding job but were professional, fast and worked together as a team and made this experience the most pleasurable of the build. People and tradespersons that have seen the before and after are just blown away as you cannot tell the difference. I would highly recommend ECOTONE (Wayne and his team) to anyone. THANK YOU!!!!!! J. Knight - home owner

CollaborationArchitect: Space Cubed DesignBuilder: Zero 9 ConstructionsMaterial & ApplicationOur ECOTONE team created and applied a white colour finish using ECOTONE Matt to the grey brick moulded precast concrete. The surface was then protected and sealed with ECOCLEAN Clean and Protect Shield to provide a gloss finish which would also be easy to clean and provide antimould, anti-bacterial and antiviral benefits.OutcomeThe architect had included a gloss white brick to the interior colour scheme however supply became an issue. ECOTONE was asked to step in and collaborate with the design team to deliver a durable gloss white colour finish while maintaining a grey mortar realistic effect. A truly stunning and sustainable Colour by Design!TestimonialThe ECOTONE team were very professional to deal with from the start of the process. The guys on site were friendly, professional and did a very neat job. The product itself is amazing, we applied the clear sealer on top of the white ECOTONE stain to the bricks, nothing sticks to it and it is very easy to clean.Adam Fisher, Zero 9 Constructions

Ivanhoe’s newest building is a landmark you can’t miss. The facade components of light bricks, dark cladding and luminous aluminium Click-on Battens perfectly complement each other, creating a contemporary finish. The interior also features our battens, which seamlessly connects to the exterior. The building comprises a three-level basement, ground floor retail outlets, two levels of offices and multiple fully appointed apartments among the two upper levels. The building is bordered on three sides by busy public roads which posed logistical challenges with its construction. However, the speed and ease of installing Click-on Battens alleviated this issue on the upper levels. The curved facade is wrapped in Sculptform aluminium Click-on Battens. They were installed upon standard and curved tracks which were delivered to site in a flexible state so that they’re able to be wrapped around the substrate and hug the exterior. Batten clips are factory fixed to the tracks at the spacing sequence that is specified. Helping to save time installing on-site. Battens are simply push-clicked onto mounting tracks that are positioned behind the battens in a concealed manner.

Known as being positioned within one of the most popular positions within London, The River Building sits comfortably between London Bridge, St Paul’s, and Bank. The position offers enviable commutes for the city workforce, boasting a five minutes’ walk from six key tube stations. Renovated to utilise a once void entrance, The River Building is now a self-contained office space with a contemporary industrial design. The large atrium features a set of sleek black Lifeline Speedlane Swings. Stiff + Trevillion working with Blackstone Group, had specified early into the design process for the Lifeline Speedlane Swing, due to its existing specification in existing projects. The new two-story building boasts a spacious atrium that combines naked brick walling with warm feature lighting and dark tones. Mimicking the interior styling a bank of Lifeline Speedlane Swings were to be finished in black RAL. The River Building with an occupancy density of 1:8 requested comfortable yet stylish entry resulting in a wider lane width configuration. The 615mm passage width utilises two glass wings that offer fast access but give the illusion of openness.
