The Beamish Blend Brick is a premium facing brick expertly crafted by Ibstock at their Birtley works. Measuring the UK standard 215 × 102 × 65 mm, each unit is produced via a slop-moulded (waterstruck) process that produces a subtly refined, light texture and razor-sharp edges for neat, consistent mortar joints. Its warm red-multi palette—ranging from deep crimson through softer terracotta highlights—creates a naturally variegated façade that feels handcrafted without the unpredictability of reclaimed stock.
Built for performance as well as appearance, this brick is manufactured from dense clay with a high thermal mass, which contributes to both acoustic insulation and energy efficiency in the wall. It achieves a compressive strength of approximately 20 N/mm² and delivers excellent frost resistance, making it suitable for exposed UK climates. Vertical perforations reduce the dry weight of each brick for easier handling on site, while also enhancing thermal performance within the wall and providing an excellent mechanical key for mortar—speeding up laying rates and ensuring strong, uniform bonds.
Supplied in packs of 392 units, the Beamish Blend Brick offers both bulk-buy economies and the timeless elegance of its distressed, waterstruck finish. Ideal for full-elevation work, feature walls or boundary enclosures in residential and commercial projects alike, it brings enduring durability, a richly textured appearance and a subtle depth of colour that will mature gracefully over time.
