DISCOVER SHAPES

BAR-FORMAT

The bar-format brick is an extruded form of perforated ceramic with and without perforation – a quality product that far exceeds the minimum requirements.

BRICK SLIPS

Thin brick slips can be factory-made, and only measure 15 mm in thickness. These are superbly well suited as facade and/or wall cladding, for renovation or for new-builds. Brick slips have the same quality features as solid bricks

CERAMIC BAGUETTES

The ceramic baguettes involve ‘threading up’ the individual ceramic elements, then mounting them in front of the facade with rear ventilation. This creates an exciting mix of class ceramic material combined with a new kind of facade construction.

SPECIAL FORMAT

LOHAS Australia is also able to produce bespoke special brick formats. The special formats are manufactured in close collaboration with the architect and clients to meet the unique requirements of the project.
