Beechworth Blend
When it comes to creating visually appealing and structurally sound masonry, the technique of brick blending can be a game changer. This innovative approach involves the strategic combination of two or more types of bricks, resulting in a final product that not only enhances the aesthetic appeal of a structure but also showcases a rich tapestry of colours and textures. By experimenting with different brick varieties, builders and architects can achieve a distinctive look that sets their projects apart from the conventional.
A prime example of successful brick blending is the Beechworth Blend, which derives its name from the picturesque town of Beechworth, located in Victoria. This blend is a masterful combination of three distinct brick types: the Reclamation Heritage Reds, Federation Weathered Reds, and a subtle infusion of Weathered Reclamation Heritage Reds. Each of these bricks contributes its own unique characteristics to the blend, creating a harmonious and visually captivating outcome.
Brick blending allows for greater creativity and personalisation in design. Homeowners and builders can tailor their choices to reflect specific architectural styles, local influences, or personal preferences. The result is a building that not only meets functional needs but also resonates with the surrounding environment and community.

About the
Professional
"In a world where conformity often prevails, our dedication to innovation and sustainability stands out. We welcome you to join us on our journey towards a brighter and more innovative future for bricks."
Sustainable Stewardship
We are committed to a greener future. Our brick factory plants more trees each year (fast growing Eucalyptus trees) rehabilitating our clay fields, embodying our belief in giving back to nature. Our bricks works looks more like a forest than a brick works! Furthermore, we harvest our trees for use in paper and pallet production, ensuring we can continue our tree planting while providing a renewable resource to the paper and packaging industry. Our on site solar farm produces 1000kW and we expect to entirely eliminate our use of electricity from non-renewable sources by 2025.
Factory Flexibility
Our factory is built for flexibility, what other brick makers do with 4 separate lines we do with 1. Our clay preparation line supplies clay clots to our hand moulding line, our pressed brick line, our machine waterstruck line and our extruded line. Within 2 hours we can switch between any of these 4 different methods for making bricks.
World Recognised Projects
Our projects have received acclaim worldwide, including the esteemed Wienerberger Brick Award for the Halle St Peters project.
Global Reach
Today bricks produced in our factory are used in 46 countries and counting.
