Ketley extruded red blue brick slips eliminate the need and cost to cut down bricks for use with pre-fabricated panels and other cladding solutions. The warm clay colours of Staffordshire red blue brick slips makes them a good choice for residential projects, either for overcladding an existing building to create an authentic brick facade or with panels for oakframe buildings and other building systems
Extruded pistol bricks for corners and returns are also manufactured to complement the range of brick slips, and they are fired alongside the slips to ensure consistancy of colour.
The colours are achieved naturally through the careful control of the kiln atmosphere without the use of surface pigments or artificial stains. This generates a warmth and authenticity to the brick colours which cannot be matched by artificial means.
