Desert Clay Brick Slip

Licata Clay Brick Slips are more competitively priced than a Classic Range brick slip and suitable for interior and exterior use.. Clay brick slips are considerably thinner than a standard sized brick and as such require 60-70% less energy to fire.

Key Uses and Applications in Construction

Desert clay brick slip solutions are widely used across residential and commercial projects where a strong masonry look is required without the depth of full bricks. These brick slips are suitable for interior and exterior walls and are often specified for new builds and renovation projects where weight, space, and surface conditions matter.

Common uses across buildings include

• Façade cladding on exterior walls to achieve traditional brickwork in an aesthetic sense
• Feature walls that help finish interior spaces with texture and character
• Kitchen splashbacks, fireplaces, and bathrooms where brick tiles and wall tiles are preferred

Across many millions of square meters, clay brick slips have been used to finish interior and exterior spaces while retaining the authentic value of properties. Their versatility makes them suitable for houses, larger buildings, and mixed-use projects across the UK.

Performance Characteristics and Benefits

Each desert clay brick slip is manufactured from pure clay and burned to deliver a durable and resistant finish. These genuine clay bricks provide a masonry look that closely reflects real clay bricks used in traditional brickwork, offering perfect masonry visuals across façades and interior walls.

Clay brick slips within this brick slip range are compatible with thermal insulation systems and can be combined with several thermal insulation systems without compromising performance. Matching angle slips and matching angle components allow corners and returns to maintain a consistent finish, supported by pointing mortar and suitable brick slip adhesive during installation.

Designed for long term performance, these slips are resistant and insensitive to algae, fungi, and UV exposure. When installed using the correct adhesive and mortar, they support easy installation and a professional finish, helping retain the appearance of masonry across both exterior and interior applications.
