Why Choose Fitzjohn Multi?
Fitzjohn Multi gives your façade a rich and varied palette — browns, reds, and rustic tones that work beautifully together to avoid flatness. The heavy texture adds tactile interest, helping to capture light and shadow in evocative ways. Its slightly smaller footprint (208 × 98 mm) gives a distinctive bond pattern that sets it apart.
Structurally, it is strong. With a compressive strength of 20 N/mm² and F2 durability, it’s capable in many external walling scenarios. Its low water absorption (9 %) helps limit moisture uptake, and its Class A1 fire rating and S2 salts classification align with modern safety and durability standards. The declared thermal conductivity (0.69 W/m·K) makes it suitable in energy-sensitive designs.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will the multi-coloured tones look inconsistent across a wall?
Some variation is intentional and part of the charm. To maintain visual harmony, mix bricks from multiple packs during laying and spread tones evenly across the elevation.
Is 9 % water absorption low enough for UK external walls?
Yes — 9 % is relatively low, which helps resist moisture penetration. But to ensure long-term durability, good detailing (cavities, DPCs, flashings) is crucial.
Can Fitzjohn Multi be used structurally or in loadbearing walls?
Yes — with 20 N/mm² compressive strength, it is suitable for many masonry applications including external walling. However, for heavier loads or more demanding designs, always confirm structural calculations, mortar specification, and regulatory compliance.
