Ibstock Reigate Medium Multi Facing Brick Pack of 500

Ibstock Reigate Medium Multi Wirecut Facing Brick

The Ibstock Reigate Medium Multi Wirecut Facing Brick combines a warm red base with multi-tonal variations and a lightly textured surface. This gives each project subtle character and depth while maintaining a consistent finish. As with all clay products, natural colour variation is expected, so bricks should be mixed from at least three packs during installation to achieve the best overall appearance. This brick not only looks good but also offers reliable performance. With dependable compressive strength, frost resistance, and a moderate water absorption rate, it is suitable for general external use in a wide range of UK construction projects.

Description & Usage Notes

Manufactured using the wirecut (extruded) method, this brick provides precise sizing and a smooth, consistent finish. The red and multi tones make it adaptable for both modern and traditional projects. Its F2 durability rating ensures frost resistance suitable for UK climates, while its 12% water absorption makes correct detailing — such as cavity wall design, flashing, and drainage — important for long-term performance. To minimise colour banding, always blend bricks from multiple packs during laying. Viewing samples before placing a bulk order is also recommended to confirm colour and finish.

FAQs

Is 12% water absorption suitable for exterior use?

Yes. A 12% absorption rate is typical for clay facing bricks and ensures good long-term performance when proper detailing is applied.

What does the F2 durability rating mean?

It means the brick is frost-resistant and suitable for general UK external exposure. For harsher conditions, such as marine environments, a higher durability rating may be advisable.

Will the colour vary between packs?

Yes. Variation is natural with clay bricks, especially multi-tone blends. Mixing bricks from at least three packs during construction helps achieve a consistent finish.

Roof Tiles & Fittings:

We recommend ordering an additional 10% of roof tiles to allow for any breakages that may occur during delivery or handling. Roof tiles are naturally fragile, and having a few extra on site helps prevent delays and ensures your roofing project can be completed without interruption.
