Ibstock Bradgate Regal – Stock Facing Brick (Pack of 430)
The Bradgate Regal facing brick is a standout choice for projects that demand both strength and style. Its deep red base, combined with subtle tonal variation, creates a façade that feels alive with colour and texture rather than flat or uniform. The heavily sand-creased surface enhances the tactile quality of the wall, catching light and shadow in a way that adds visual depth while softening mortar lines. This gives every elevation a distinctive, characterful finish that works as well on large-scale developments as it does on smaller extensions or bespoke architectural details. Built to endure UK weather conditions, the Bradgate Regal is frost resistant and strong enough to support long-term external use. Whether your design leans traditional or modern, this brick offers a perfect balance of durability and timeless aesthetic appeal.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can Bradgate Regal be used in exposed or coastal environments?
Yes — with **F2 durability**, it is suitable for external exposure under UK conditions. For coastal or highly exposed sites, ensure strong detailing (cavity design, flashing, drainage, and mortar compatibility) for long-term performance.
Will the colour variation be noticeable across a build?
The “multi” element introduces intentional tonal variation. To avoid clustering of similar shades or visible banding, best practice is to **mix bricks from several packs** during laying.
Does a 19 % absorption rate pose a risk of damp over time?
A **19 % water absorption** is moderate. Moisture resistance depends more on proper wall construction—correct cavities, good flashing, weep holes, and using compatible mortar—than absorption alone.
