Old-Haspengouw

A hand moulded facing brick with a classic look and feel

The facade bricks (non-perforated) have five sand covered sides and one side with possible oblong groove. The structure looks rugged with fine and irregular grooves in the sandy surface. The baking process takes place in a gas-heated tunnel oven under slightly reduced atmosphere.

The brick has a reddish base. The typical old aspect is the result of the wet and unbaked bricks’ treatment with various admixtures. In addition, the various types of sand are responsible for calcareous sediments slightly diminishing the red colour. The hues range from soft red to
dark red with beige, white and grey shadings.

The colours shown are a near reflection of reality.
