Buff and Yellow Bricks

The classic buff or yellow brick is one of the most timeless facade materials. Used for nearly 10,000 years by civilisations around the world, clay bricks are renowned for their durability, versatility and enduring aesthetic appeal.

Our range of buff facing bricks offer an array of cream shades, from warm sand tones and bright, bold yellow, to deep, dark buff with elements of orange and hints of brown. Plus, you can choose from extruded, soft mud moulded or waterstruck bricks, for the perfect performance benefits and texture.

Want to know what's possible when you choose Wienerberger buff clay bricks? Check out some of our eye-catching and award-winning case studies below:

Our facing bricks are made with naturally-occurring clay, excavated and then ground and milled to make the particles a consistent size and shape.

The clay is shaped, most commonly through extrusion, and then wire-cut into individual bricks. Alternatively, soft mud bricks are made by pressing or throwing the clay into moulds.

Bricks are then dried and fired at around 1000 degrees Celsius. This temperature is what gives the fired clay facing brick its incredible strength and fire resistance.

Our range includes standard UK format and long format bricks, with a wide choice of textures and colours to create the perfect look and feel. Add some colour to your design with glazed bricks, create something unique with special shaped bricks, or see how a traditional brick aesthetic can be achieved with brick slips.
