The Forterra Atherstone Red Multi Brick (65 mm) is a machine-made stock brick from Forterra’s sustainable Ecostock range, pressed at their state-of-the-art Measham facility. Each unit measures the UK standard 215 × 102.5 × 65 mm, with a smooth, sand-faced texture that gives a gentle, tactile finish to both traditional and contemporary façades.

What sets the Atherstone Red Multi apart is its rich, variegated palette of warm reds—ranging from deep crimson through terracotta highlights—which lends walls a lively, handcrafted character even in large-scale developments. The consistent dimensions and sharp edges achieved by precision pressing ensure tight, uniform mortar joints and minimal on-site cutting.

Technically, these bricks offer a compressive strength of around 20–25 N/mm² and water absorption of up to 13 percent, making them robust under UK weather conditions and ideal for matching existing stock work. Their high thermal mass and low conductivity also contribute to both acoustic insulation and energy efficiency in building envelopes.

Available in packs of approximately 495 bricks, the Atherstone Red Multi is perfectly suited to new-build townhouses, sympathetic extensions or restoration projects where dependable performance and a warm, nuanced aesthetic are required.
