Sustainable Brick Slip Panelised System

This contractor is using a lightweight, panelised brick facade system that replicates the appearance of traditional brickwork while delivering significant performance and sustainable advantages.

Manufactured without kilns, the panels combine cement, aggregate and other materials producing a class A1 non-combustible, visually identical to a brick.

The system reduces wall build up, improves thermal performance and can be installed faster and more cost effectively than traditional brick, offering a modern solution to facades.

This Brick Slip System challenges the limitations of traditional masonry by combining authentic brick aesthetics with modern, sustainable engineering. Unlike kiln-fired bricks, it is produced at room temperature with minimal energy, cutting embodied carbon by 22%.

Its panelised format reduces wall thickness, accelerates installation, and slashes deliveries from 39 to just 7 lorries for a typical project, easing logistics and site impact.

This integration of fire safety, speed, sustainability, and versatility represents a step-change in facade construction methods. For the construction industry, this Brick Slip System offers faster programmes, reduced costs, and improved health and safety through lighter, easier-to-handle panels.

It enhances project viability, enabling 30% cost savings over cavity wall systems, while supporting net-zero goals with carbon-neutral production and recyclable end-of-life use. The system reduces foundation loads, improves thermal efficiency, and avoids cavity-related fire risks. With proven compliance and successful case studies, Sustainabrick provides a scalable, future-ready alternative to traditional brick, meeting regulatory, sustainability, and economic pressures head-on.
