  • Brick: Create Range Grey Glazed Blend

Owner builder Matt Johnson and wife Katie knew what they wanted from the start…a natural looking grey brick that would compliment the vertical cedar and settle into it’s big decks and rural environment.  With samples produced, a blend of three different coloured glazes and a blend of two different textures was chosen. Having a mix of smooth faced bricks with the wirecut takes the blend up another notch, playing with light, shade and texture all at once, giving the final aesthetic a nearly stone-like appearance. This blend from CCB and a stunning lay by the team at Devlin Brick and Block has created a beautiful marriage between the brick and cedar, to really make this lovely family home, also piece of art.

About the
Professional

Canterbury Clay Bricks is a family run business, supplying clay bricks nationally, for commercial and residential builds, since its inception over 50 years ago.  We are the only manufacturer of kiln fired clay bricks in the South Island.

We offer you an impressive collection using rich Canterbury clays, from which we have created a host of enduring finishes and colours that will add style and value to your new home or project.

Canterbury Clay Bricks manufacturing plant is located close to its clay supplies within the surronding hills of Darfield. A number of recycled products are used in the manufacture of the bricks including re-constituted brick and recycled glass. The kilns at the plant run on up to 95% of re-claimed fuels and oil further reducing any impact of manufacturing. We supply nationwide to both residential and commercial projects, new builds and renovations. 

Bricks are a blend of clays and water. The bricks are then formed, dried and kilned to produce a strong and durable end product. They are then hand blended and graded by staff to give a consistent finish.
