Red Bricks

Designed to withstand extreme weather conditions, including wind and rain, these bricks ensure lasting structural integrity while enhancing the visual appeal of any project.

What are the benefits of red facing bricks? 

Red facing bricks are widely used in construction due to their classic and timeless appearance. Their rich, warm tones complement a variety of architectural styles, making them an ideal choice for both traditional and modern builds.

Beyond aesthetics, Marshalls’ bricks offer exceptional durability and are manufactured to withstand harsh weather conditions such as heavy rain and strong winds. 

This strength and resilience make them a reliable option for long-term construction projects, ensuring buildings remain structurally sound for years to come.

Although not exclusive to the area, red bricks are most commonly used in the north of England. Key cities like Manchester and Liverpool heavily feature red brickwork in their city centre architecture, universities, and housing estates.

Marshalls’ most popular red bricks are Peakdale Leamington Wine Facing Bricks, with their sand-faced texture and deep, contrasting blend of red and black. 

If you’re looking for a stock finish, look no further than Edmonton Stock, with its soft red colour accentuated with black antiquing.

Marshalls’ red face bricks come in a standard size of 215x100 and are available in sand faced or stock textures.

How are Marshalls' red facing bricks made?

Marshalls' bricks and masonry products are made with the utmost care. Our red facing bricks are produced by compacting a semi-dry concrete mix composed of carefully selected aggregates, cement, synthetic pigments, and specialist admixtures. 

This advanced process results in a brick with low water absorption and minimal efflorescence, ensuring a consistent finish with long-lasting quality.

The manufacturing technique creates a dense unit with proven frost resistance and durability, making it suitable for use in a range of environments. 

Additionally, the precision of this process ensures uniformity across each brick, providing a consistent look and performance throughout any project.
