How we can help

Agard St Derby 5 of 61

To ensure Sustainabrick® meets your exact project requirements, we offer the following services.

01 / 03
  • Modern Manufacturing

    Sustainabrick® brick slips are purpose made, handmade brick slips for modern day construction.

    Cast into custom moulds and dried at ambient temperatures, the slips are then dressed to achieve your desired aesthetic. Due to this method, our brick slips all perform the same way, no matter their colour, texture or size.

    As they are not fired using a kiln, the brick slips won’t shrink or warp, assuring tolerances and quality control. Their colour is also not produced through firing, ensuring further consistency.

    Bond pattern and joint spacing is prepared under factory settings using a mesh carrier, meaning quality-control continues during on-site installation.

  • Sustainabrick® for Developers

    Insulation, weatherproofing and the aesthetic facade are all included within the Sustainabrick® wall build-up, creating an EWI system that doesn't require a cavity tray or fire barrier.

    Combined with the 13mm brick slips – a 40% reduction on standard 22mm slips - Sustainabrick® provides a significantly thinner cladding solution.

    Utilising this system therefore frees up essential internal sqm to give homeowners a larger floorspace.

    Alternately, the extra space can be reworked into more units, providing more homes and social housing within your development.

  • Specifying Sustainabrick®

    Sustainabrick® offers specifiers both creative freedom and assured performance.

    Sustainabrick® allows designers to completely personalise slip sizes, shapes, colours, textures and finishes. For example, if you want triangle bricks, we can make them.

    We can also recreate popular bricks, or bricks that have long been discontinued. Add custom variations or give your facade extra dimension using our gloss and special shaped options.

    All elements within the Sustainabrick® system have been individually tested and tested as a full system.

    Sustainable Brick Slips

    To do what’s right for the planet and to help projects meet their sustainability requirements, we are proud to offer a brick cladding with great sustainability benefits.

    • Sustainabrick® brick slips are purpose-made to size, meaning no material is wasted and no dust is created through the cutting process.
    • Our slips are cured at an ambient working temperature within 24hrs, so no high-heat kiln or gas is used to fire and dry the bricks.
    • The slips are 40% thinner than standard brick slips, which are themselves over 50% thinner than traditional brick. Due to this weight reduction, one artic wagon can transport the equivalent of six artic wagons of bricks, therefore reducing transport emissions when delivering to site.
    • A thinner slip also means a lighter slip, causing less strain on backing structures and project foundations.
    • The Sustainabrick® wall build up includes mineral wool, providing the system with low U-values.
    • Sustainabrick® brick slips are all manufactured in the UK by Monolith Brick & Stone, a certified carbon-neutral company. Following delivery to site, Monolith offers a service to recycle the packaging materials, reducing on-site waste.
