Verified by manufacturer 8 months ago
EPD
Certificate type
Concrete facing brick available in two finishes
Application
Suitable for above ground main external wall construction and boundary walls regardless of exposure conditions.
Description
Frogged brick with a lightly glazed face and strong colour blends in two distinct finishes - smooth and antique.
Features and benefits:
- Available in a smooth finish with crisp edges for a contemporary look; and an antique finish with rumbled edges for a more traditional look.
- Woodward bricks are frogged, so they are lighter and easier to handle than solid bricks.
- The frog creates an extra recess for the mortar, resulting in a stronger bond between bricks.
- Frogged bricks reduce the environmental impact as the indentation in the brick saves on materials, which also helps reduce the curing time of the bricks.
- Mean coefficient of water absorption: 4.4 g/m²s.
Type of mortar:
Recommended ratio 6:1, sand to ordinary portland cement (OPC).
