NATURAL TERRACOTTA
Our terracotta brick slips are produced by baking clay to form a type of ceramic. After firing, due to its built-in properties, a dense product is created that will last decades.
FLAMED TERRACOTTA
These brick slips are unique due to their position in the wood-fired kiln. The slip pigment takes on a completely original look due to its relation to the flame.
ENGOBED
These brick slips are created by applying a coloured clay coating to natural terracotta. This brick allows for design flexibility, as all terracotta can be coated in the colours we provide.
BRUT DE FOUR
These kiln-baked terracotta brick slips are available in multiple colour variations. The addition of powders and pigments during the firing process gives these slips an authentic look.
ORIGINELLE
Originelle brick slips are positioned in the oven to create a unique tone, closely replicating colours of the earth, sand and clay. This creates a natural colouring that adds authenticity to any design.
Glazed Brick Slips
COLOURED GLAZED
Finely crushed coloured glass is applied to the terracotta brick slips during a second firing to achieve a bright and bold look that can be matched to any RAL code.
CRYSTAL CLEAR
This modern design gives any building’s façade a natural look within the urban environment. These bricks will bring an optical sensation to your project’s exterior.
METALLIC
Metallic glazed brick slips will reflect the light and shimmer in the sun for an eye catching look. A unique façade can be created by combining metallic slips with other types of brick slips.
TRANSPARENT
These glazed brick slips will give your build a transparent effect. Using these to combine various brick styles, such as coloured terracotta, can enhance the iridescent effect of this product.
SINGLE FIRED
Created by simultaneously firing the raw terracotta and finely crushed coloured glass in the same firing process, single-fired brick slips can create a more natural façade.
