Wienerberger is one of the largest brick manufacturers in Europe, producing clay facing bricks used in a wide range of construction projects. Their brick products are used in both traditional masonry construction and contemporary architectural designs where brickwork forms a visible part of the building façade.
Clay facing bricks provide both structural durability and aesthetic character within masonry construction. Variations in colour, texture and firing methods can create distinctive brick finishes that contribute to the overall architectural appearance of a building.
Wienerberger bricks are commonly used across a range of construction projects including:
In many cavity wall constructions, clay facing bricks form the outer masonry leaf while blockwork and insulation form the internal layers of the wall.
When specifying clay facing bricks, designers and builders often consider several factors including:
Clay bricks used in construction are typically manufactured to standards such as BS EN 771-1, which sets performance requirements for clay masonry units.
The Wienerberger products we supply include clay facing bricks used in residential masonry construction. These products are commonly selected where the finished appearance of brickwork is an important part of the project design.
Wienerberger bricks are frequently ordered alongside materials from our Bricks, Blocks and Insulation ranges used within masonry wall construction.
