BENEFITSof Clay Bricks

Low maintenance

Clay bricks don’t need paint or other treatments to maintain their aesthetics and durability. They are strong,

reliable and relatively maintenance free.

Affordable

Brickwork doesn’t need painting, rendering or any other coating to preserve its look and durability, making it highly cost-effective.

Expansive colour and profile range

Brick’s natural colours and textures enable you to create both striking façade contrasts and more traditional neutral colour schemes.

Energy efficient

Combined with intelligent passive building design elements, clay bricks can help moderate building temperatures and

reduce energy consumption.

Absolute strength

Clay bricks are stronger and have a lower rate of absorption than concrete bricks, making them easier to work with.

Brick is sustainable

Made from organic minerals found in shale and local, naturally abundant sources of clay, brick’s long-lasting life cycle offers ongoing

environmental and health benefits.

EXP = Exposure grade

Suitable for use in external walls exposed to aggressive environments, such as; areas subjected to salts in the soil, adjacent material or ground water, in coastal areas exposed to attack from windborne salt spray, or retaining walls subjected to fertilisers and ground salts.

GP = General purpose

Suitable for internal and external walls only when above a sheet or membrane damp-proof course and protected by an adequate coping, eaves, roof or similar top covering. These units should not be directly exposed to saline environments.

Solar absorptance rating

In the design of energy efficient buildings, the architects and consulting engineers need to be able to calculate the heat loss or gain of materials used to construct these buildings.

For this reason, our product range has been categorised into three colour groups –

Light (L) < 0.475 Light,

Medium (M) 0.475 - 0.70 Medium,

Dark (D) > 0.70 Dark

to assist architects and consulting engineers with their calculations.

Mortar Colour

Off-white mortar is currently the most popular colour. This is made by mixing light coloured cement and white sand and results in a traditional bricks and mortar look. Mortar can be coloured by adding powdered or liquid pigments to the mortar as it is being mixed by the bricklayer. It can also be tinted to match the brick colour, giving a very even wall colour. Please confirm with your bricklayer what their mortar colouring offering is before making your final decision.

TECHNICALdetails

Mortar colour | Mortar finishes

Grey Black

Natural Off white

Mortex is a factory manufactured, quality assured premixed M4 rated mortar solution. Its consistancy can save labour time, increase efficiency, remove the need for on site blending, and it is compliant with AS3700.

Mortex takes the guess work out of mortar blending and reduces the potential for under strength, non compliant mortar use. This can ultimately reduce potential liabilities, saving money and time on rectifications.

Mortex is a preblended mixture of cement, specially graded sand, lime and admixtures which creates a high quality mortar blend when combined with water.

With the adoption of ISO9001:2008 principles, the mortar constituents are accurately measured and blended in a controlled environment to ensure consistent, homogeneous mortar is produced on-site.

Mortar finishes

There are four common mortar finishes and these various finishes result in different shadow lines on the wall. A raked finish will create a deep shadow in the mortar joint. This brings out the horizontal lines of the brickwork (and the vertical lines to a lesser extent) and it is the most common finish. Rolled and struck joints also create shadow lines, but these are much finer and more subtle. A flush joint doesn’t allow shadow lines to form at all, giving the wall a flatter, more unified look. Using a mortar colour to match the brick will take this a step further.
