Wienerberger Waresley Cinnabar Red Multi Facing Brick Pack of 500

Wienerberger Cinnabar Red Multi Facing Brick

The Wienerberger Cinnabar Red Multi is a high-quality facing brick that blends warm red and multi tones with a lightly sanded wirecut finish. Its natural variation gives character and depth, making it suitable for a wide range of projects. Because clay is a natural material, shades may differ between packs — blending bricks from at least three packs during installation is recommended to achieve a uniform finish. This brick balances attractive aesthetics with reliable technical performance, including frost resistance, moderate compressive strength, and controlled water absorption.
