Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. Is the size exactly 221 x 100 x 70mm? Yes. This size is specifically designed to work with standard South African masonry practices and 10mm mortar joints.

2. Does "Light Travertine" mean the brick is fragile? Not at all. "Light Travertine" refers only to the color and texture. These bricks have an average compressive strength (CCS) of over 31 MPa, making them structurally robust for all standard walling applications.

3. What mortar should I use? For the best aesthetic result with this multi-mix color, a light grey or white mortar is often recommended to complement the lighter tones in the brick.

4. Can I use these for paving? No. These are face bricks designed for vertical walls. They do not have the specific anti-slip or abrasive-wear ratings required for safe and durable paving.
