Engineering Bricks
Manufactured with impressive compressive strength and low water absorption, engineering bricks can be used in both below ground and above ground construction.
Our range of Wienerberger engineering bricks features both solid and perforated configurations in red and blues to suit a range of projects.
Solid engineering bricks vs perforated engineering bricks
| Feature | Solid Engineering Bricks | Perforated Engineering Bricks |
|---|---|---|
| Structure | Fully solid with no holes or perforations | Contain regularly spaced perforations (holes) |
| Strength | Higher compressive strength, ideal for heavy load-bearing structures | Slightly lower compressive strength but still suitable for most applications |
| Water Resistance | Highly resistant to water absorption, ideal for damp-proof courses and foundations | Resistant to water but less impervious than solid bricks |
| Weight | Heavier due to the solid structure | Lighter, making handling and transportation easier |
| Thermal Efficiency | Lower thermal insulation properties | Better insulation due to perforations |
| Applications |
|
|
| Cost | Typically more expensive due to higher material usage | More cost-effective due to reduced material and easier handling |

It’s not you, it’s us!
We couldn’t understand what you were searching for.
Maybe you could try searching again using:
- fewer words (e.g. “paving slabs” rather than “grey sandstone paving slabs”)
- or using a similar search (“light” instead of “lamp”)
We’re adding new products to the website every day, so keep checking back.
Still no luck? Maybe you need the help of one of our team*!
