Six reasons why brick slips are sustainable

Brick slips are a popular construction material and it’s no surprise – these cut slips offer all of the advantages of complete bricks. In terms of sustainability, they score even higher. Discover why.

We cut an average of 1.6 brick slips from a single brick, which helps to achieve a gain of at least 60% in surface area.
Brick slips are bonded to a carrier material, which renders bricklaying unnecessary.
Their minimal thickness means that there is more space for additional insulation.
Brick slips are an ideal brick finish for insulating façade systems like E-Board.
They are a fantastic solution for finishing difficult structures such as ceilings, corbelling, or creative brickwork patterns.
They are lightweight and thin, while at the same time a sustainable and robust material for interior use.

Did you know that brick slips can be bonded straight on to insulation panels? Insulate and renovate your façades at the same time. Discover the innovative E-Board® facade system.
