Almost 2500 years
ago a Silica lime brick was used in the construction of
the Great Wall of China, much of which stands today.
This testifies to the durability of brick and in
particular to this early form of concrete brick.
At Colinwell we have combined years of experience and
know-how with the latest manufacturing technology to
produce a range of quality facing bricks possessing
durability and strength, while offering a diverse range
of textures and colours.
Colinwell Facing Bricks are manufactured by blending and
compacting quality crushed aggregates, cement and
pigments in moulds under high pressure with particular
attention being given to achieving accurate dimensions,
high strengths and good fire resistance. Bricks are
cured in kilns with controlled amounts of heat and
steam. This process ensures the bricks are totally
efflorescence free.
A selection of samples are displayed opposite. Our full
