Description
Reclaimed Blue Engineering Bricks- Solid 3″ (Class B)
Reclaimed Blue Engineering Bricks offer strength, history, and a unique story for any construction or landscaping project. These bricks are Class B with a compressive strength of 75N/mm² and water absorption less than 7%. Built to carry buildings, trains etc. and endure harsh weather, these bricks have already proved their durability. Previously used as smooth pavers, these bricks have remnants of mortar and grout on the normal face surface.
These reclaimed Blue Engineering Bricks are made using Etruria marl clay, a material found in the Midlands. Skilled makers shaped and fired the clay at very high temperatures. As a result, this process gave the bricks their deep blue-black colour and impressive hardness. Favoured for railways and industrial buildings, their dense structure resists water and weather..
These reclaimed Engineering bricks show signs of their previous use on the faces. This weathered patina is easily cleaned with a brick hammer and wire brush.
Today, Reclaimed Blue Engineering Bricks suit a range of uses. Indeed, builders rely on them for structural and load-bearing work thanks to their high strength. Their water resistance makes them perfect for outdoor walls, garden features, and restoration projects. Over time, their colour weathers beautifully, adding subtle depth and texture to any setting.
Sustainable Choice
In addition, choosing reclaimed materials has real environmental benefits. Reclaimed Blue Engineering Bricks stay out of landfill and avoid the energy costs of new production. This reduces carbon emissions and protects natural resources. When you use them, you’re building with the past and protecting the future.
Each of these bricks carries a trace of the previous use it once supported. That sense of history brings depth and character that new bricks can’t match. Their clean lines and strong form still meet modern standards, yet they hold a link to the past.
Reclaimed Blue Engineering Bricks offer more than just toughness. They bring colour, texture, and sustainability to your project. Whether you’re repairing a period property or creating a new garden wall, they provide reliability and heritage. Their story continues in every new build, making them a practical and thoughtful choice for any designer or builder.
