Description
The Bristol Gold brick is a high-quality wire-cut facing unit that brings a warm, buff-cream glow to any elevation. Each brick measures the UK standard 215 × 102.5 × 65 mm and features a subtle drag-faced texture across its face, casting gentle shadows that accentuate mortar joints and impart a handcrafted sensibility. Precision extrusion and wire-cutting deliver razor-sharp edges and consistent dimensions, ensuring tight, uniform beds and minimal on-site cutting.
Vertical perforations running through each brick reduce its dry weight to around 2.3 kg, making handling and laying quicker and easier while also enhancing the wall’s thermal and acoustic performance. Those cores provide an excellent mechanical key for mortar, speeding up laying rates and guaranteeing strong, even joints. Engineered to deliver dependable long-term performance in exposed UK climates, Bristol Gold achieves low water absorption (around 10 %) and a high compressive strength of approximately 50 N/mm², along with full frost resistance. Supplied in bulk packs, it’s equally suited to traditional restorations, contemporary façades or elegant feature walls, maturing gracefully with time while retaining its timeless, sun-lit character.
