Application

Brickwork applications.

Description

The raw materials are excavated in Weichsel loam layers, the local loam of Aeolian origin dating from the Ice Age. This löss mainly consists of a silt-like fraction, suited ideally for the manufacturing of hand form bricks. By using specific sand types for surface covering, the desired colour is achieved.

Features and benefits:

Hand-formed stock brick.
Multi-shade.
Red base colour with beige and white variations.
Aged: the recovered-stone look achieved by tumbling before baking.

Also available as brick slips; consult manufacturer for details.
