Imperial
Bricks has introduced a new range of seven different waterstruck bricks,
available from stock in metric sizes, to work with modern blocks and lintels.
Waterstruck
bricks have a unique texture due to the traditional methods of production.
The
bricks are soft-mud moulded using clay with a high water content and water is
also used as the releasing agent, giving the bricks a relatively smooth
appearance.
The
new range is available in standard metric sizes, making the bricks ideal for
use on high-end luxury developments that still want the variety and authentic
character that handmade bricks offer.
Imperial’s new Waterstruck bricks were developed in
response to demand for an extended metric range. The first seven options
available in metric sizing are Traditional Buff Waterstruck, Buff Multi
Waterstruck, Mellow Multi Waterstruck, Antique Multi Waterstruck, Rural Red,
Rural Red Multi and Weathered Rural Red. The bricks are pre-blended in packs of
336 and are F2 frost resistant.
Jason Hughes, Managing Director at Imperial Bricks
comments: “The new waterstruck range, available from stock, has already
been specified in a number of luxury home developments and measures up exactly
with modern blocks and lintels.”
The
entire range is also available as brick slips, suitable for internal feature
walls, decorative fireplaces or as external cladding on timber frame or other
methods of modern construction.
