Butterley brick
Synonymous with brick making in the UK for over 150 years, the current range of Butterley wirecut extruded bricks are available in a choice of colours and textures, offering everything you need from classic to contemporary.
Here at Forterra, we manufacture red, buff, yellow, brown, blue and grey bricks in a number of textures: a smooth finish, which gives a consistent, uniform character; light textured, which is modern and uniform, with an indented or printed finish; heavy textured, which has a harder and rougher texture for a more rustic brick with a consistent finish; and tumbled, a distressed and irregular shape associated with reclaimed bricks.
