Forterra Atherstone Red Bricks

About this product

The Atherstone Red brick is a sustainable pressed stock brick made by Forterra in their Measham factory. Part of Forterra’s Ecostock range, these facing bricks meet BES 6001 certified standards for materials sourced in ethical and environmentally friendly ways.

Visually, Atherstone red bricks have a warm red colour – a classic stock-brick hue with overtones of terracotta. They also have a smooth, sand-faced finish which gives a consistent but softly mottled surface - ideal for a calm yet warm façade.

Forterra Atherstone Red bricks come in packs of 495 frogged bricks, for better mortar bonding and reduced weight. They’re standard UK brick size with a height of 65mm, and are also rated F2 for durability, making them suitable for areas exposed to harsh weather conditions.
