The Brunswick Antique Red Brick is a premium wire-cut facing unit standing 65 mm tall (overall dimensions 215 × 102.5 × 65 mm) that combines the timeless warmth of traditional red stock with the consistency of modern manufacture. Each brick bears a gently rolled texture—fine linear striations pressed into the surface—that catches daylight to cast soft shadows and impart façades with a subtle, handcrafted character. Supplied in economical packs of 500, these bricks slot seamlessly into stretcher, English or Flemish bond patterns, ensuring tight, uniform mortar beds and minimal on-site cutting.
Behind its inviting antique red hue lies robust performance: each unit achieves a compressive strength of approximately 50 N/mm² and maintains water absorption at around 10 percent by weight, earning an F2 frost-resistance rating suited to exposed UK climates. Vertical perforations running through the body reduce the dry weight to about 2.4 kg per brick, making handling and laying quicker and more comfortable, while also enhancing thermal and acoustic efficiency within the wall and providing an excellent mechanical key for mortar. Whether you’re restoring period architecture, crafting a feature wall or cladding a contemporary façade, the Brunswick Antique Red Brick delivers lasting durability, dependable structural integrity and a warm, nuanced appearance that will mature gracefully over time.
