Not another brick in the wall
Wednesday 22nd November 2006

Boral Bricks has drawn on more than 100 years' experience to put together a comprehensive new guide revealing tips and tricks to building with brick.

Destined to become a favourite with home owners and builders alike, Brick Insights is an education tool designed to take a fresh look at bricks and help navigate the journey of home building today.

Michelle Camilleri, Marketing Manager of Boral Bricks, said an ever-increasing range of building materials to choose from, together with important considerations on energy efficient design, mean that now more than ever, decisions on building can seem daunting.

"What your home is made from has a long-term effect on the security, comfort and health of your family as well as our fragile environment," said Michelle.

"Which is why we've put together this guide: to shed new light on natural clay brick. Its benefits, its beauty and its advantages over lightweight and alternative materials."

The 24-page booklet features a range of topics including why bricks; choosing bricks; decorative effects and trends; building essentials; the energy lifecycle; basic brick terms and frequently asked questions.

Not only providing general information on why building with brick is better, Brick Insights contains snapshots of inspiring ideas and looks that can be created with new generation bricks and mortar.

Boral has six different brick ranges, from the smooth clean lines of Escura to the authentic rustic appeal of Woodstock. There's even a range called Revive, for renovators wanting to match older style bricks. Many options are available in Exposure Grade, making them suitable for coastal environments and areas with harsh soils.

"Ask yourself, what does a home mean to you? With protective qualities like no other, give yourself a head start and create a lasting impression with Boral bricks."

"From choosing a size and texture to ensuring the right mortar joint, you'd be surprised how easy the process is with the right advice."
