Wienerberger Mulberry Red Facing Brick Pack of 500

Wienerberger Mulberry Red Facing Brick

The Wienerberger Mulberry Red is an extruded wirecut facing brick with a sanded finish and warm red/multi tones. Its clean lines and subtle texture make it a versatile choice for a wide range of projects. As with all clay products, natural colour variation is expected, so mixing bricks from at least three packs during installation is recommended to achieve a consistent façade. This brick combines attractive appearance with reliable technical properties, offering frost resistance, dependable compressive strength, and controlled water absorption for external facing applications in the UK.

Description & Usage Notes

Manufactured at Waresley using the extruded wirecut process, the Mulberry Red features vertical perforations and a sanded surface that adds texture while maintaining sharp edges. Its red and multi tones provide depth, making it suitable for both contemporary and traditional designs. With water absorption ? 16% and compressive strength ? 35 N/mm², this brick is intended for facing applications, not heavy structural use. Its F2 frost resistance rating ensures durability in standard UK exposure conditions, provided correct detailing — such as cavity design, drainage, flashing, and mortar selection — is followed. Always blend bricks from several packs to minimise colour banding, and consider ordering a sample panel before large-scale installation to confirm appearance.
