What is thin brick?Thin fired clay units, often referred to as thin brick, can be used as interior or exterior wall coverings. Thin brick veneer is a relatively new product which is seeing increasing popularity in commercial, residential and do-it-yourself markets. The kinds of thin brick units are formed from shale and/or clay, and are kiln-fired. These thin brick units are much like facing brick, except they are 12 mm thick, with a face size of 76mm high by 230mm long. The face sizes are normally the same as conventional brick and therefore, when in place, give the appearance of a conventional brick masonry wall. Greenway Systems also provide corner bricks to allow for easy installation around corners. These bricks measure 190mm x 70mm x 76mm x 12mm, and give the impression of a full-brick construction, as well as acting as a seal to cut off gaps to outside environment conditions.
