Innovation made of burned tone

thin brick are coarse ceramic quality products that are shaped from natural raw materials and burned at around 1,150 ° C. In contrast to conventionally sawn variants, the straps at Feldhaus are produced directly in the desired strength: no saw - no waste. A procedure that protects resources and underlines the environmental friendliness of this building material. This also applies to corner riders that are pressed specifically into angular shape in order to meet the high aesthetic requirements of modern architecture.

Aesthetics and freedom of design for every facade

thin brick offer the look of a classic brick wall and open architects a variety of design that is in no way inferior to that of facing brick n. With a thickness of 9 to 35 mm, however, you convince with additional functional advantages - ideal for new construction projects and renovations alike. The straps enable maximum flexibility in execution with minimal load on the building structure.

Advantages for modern construction concepts

  • Light weight, maximum flexibility: thin brick can be used almost everywhere, regardless of the load of the building structure. Only about 27 kg of material weight is created per m², which means significant weight savings compared to massive clinker stones.
  • Living space gain through optimized wall thickness: The reduced wall thickness enables a gain in the usable area without compromising on the insulation values. This solution is particularly advantageous in the new building, where every square meter counts.
  • Efficient renovation without major interventions: thin brick do not require additional foundation reinforcements or roof extensions- a significant saving and cost saving in the modernization of existing buildings.

Sustainable protection and durability

In combination with a high-quality thermal insulation composite system, clinker and angular straps offer a durable solution for the building envelope. Thanks to a wide selection of colors, formats and surfaces, you meet aesthetic and technical requirements alike and rectify every construction project sustainably.

For architects, investors and builders who rely on efficiency, resource conservation and timeless aesthetics, thin brick are the ideal choice for permanent facade design.

Colors as design elements of the facade

The colors of the clinker are considered important design elements of a facade. While dark clinkers look rather massive and reduce the optical height of the building, bright clinker optically stretches the entire building. Feldhaus offers Klinker in almost all shades of color, from warm red tones to modern gray variants.

The wide color scale from light to dark as well as classic red and brown tones shows that there is something for every regional preference- a range of color that leaves nothing to be desired. Depending on the color and surface design, there are completely different effects on the facade, which shape the character of the entire building.

Color effect and options:

  • Bright tones : stretch the building visually and create a friendly atmosphere
  • Dark colors : lend solidity and reduce the optical height
  • Gray tones : modern and timeless, perfect for contemporary architecture
  • Red clinker : classic and warm, traditionally proven
  • Colorful mixtures : lively look through natural color variations

FAQ

General information about thin brick

What are thin brick ?

thin brick are thin brick panels made of burned clay, which are processed as protective facade cladding or decorative interior element. These wall -mounted walls offer a variety of design options for facades and interiors. Due to its materiality and in connection with the corresponding angular corners, no optical difference to a massive masonry can be determined.

Klinker Riemchen are a popular product for the cladding of buildings in new buildings and for renovations. They combine all properties of real clinker stones with significantly reduced weight and expanded possible uses.

What is the difference between straps and clinkers?

thin brick are thinner (usually 14 mm), while (full) clinker are usually 115 mm thick. The lower thickness of the straps makes them the ideal choice for facade cladding, in which weight and wall thickness play a crucial role.

While massive clinker static requirements make considerable static requirements, straps enable maximum flexibility in fastening. With straps, only about 27 kg of material weight occurs compared to several hundred kilograms with solid stones per m².

How fat are thin brick ?

Typically you have a thickness of 14 mm, which makes you space -saving compared to facing brick N. Depending on the product series, the minimum thickness is 9 mm, the maximum 35 mm. In between there are many gradations for different requirements. These different strengths enable flexible adaptation to the requirements of different wall surfaces and design types.

How much do thin brick weigh?

Depending on the format, they usually have 27 kg material weight per square meter. In addition, there is the weight for the grout, the glue, the reinforcement plaster with tissue and the insulation material when it is processed on a WDVS system. The weight is an important factor when choosing the suitable fastening system and the static calculation.

What do thin brick cost?

The costs vary depending on the format and product line, but are usually between 30 and 60 euros (plus VAT) per square meter and can be obtained from the building materials trade. The price depends on various factors such as the surface, color and size. These prices per m² make straps an economic solution for high -quality facade design.

What are the disadvantages of a thin brick facade?

Despite the many advantages, possible disadvantages should also be viewed honestly:

Higher initial investment : The material costs are above that of simple cleaning facades, but amortize themselves through durability and increase in value. The facade never has to be painted again.

Professional processing required : The fastening requires specialist knowledge and experience, especially when using ETICS systems.

Repair effort : Individual damaged straps are more difficult to replace than with other facade systems.

Additional weight : Although less than with massive stones, there is still additional stress on the building structure. a thin brick facade does not place any static requirements for the building envelope.

However, these disadvantages are more than compensated for by the long -term advantages such as freedom of maintenance, durability and increase in value.

In which formats are thin brick made?

most common format in Germany for thin brick normal format NF (240 x 71 mm visual surface). Another popular format is the thin format DF (240 x 52 mm visual surface). In addition, there is the long thin format LDF (290 x 52 mm visual surface), the extra -long thin format XLDF (365 x 52 mm visual surface) and the WDF (215 x 65 mm visual surface), which is common for hand -shaped surfaces).

There are also a number of regional formats such as module format , which, however, play a rather subordinate role. For all the formats mentioned, there are the corresponding angular straps for building corners that enable professional execution in detail.

Do you have a factory sale?

We only sell our products through building materials trade. Call us, we would be happy to give you a dealer near you. We would be happy to support you in finding the right contact person.

What norms apply to thin brick ?

The DIN 18515-1 regulates the requirements for external wall cladding with tiles and plates. This standard is also relevant for the processing of thin brick and defines important quality standards for professional attachment and execution.

Sustainability and certifications

Are thin brick sustainable?

thin brick consist of natural components such as sound and are very durable, which makes it an environmentally friendly product. In addition, thin brick is produced in the desired strength, which makes sawing the whole stone superfluous and thus protects natural resources.

The longevity and quality of the straps make you a sustainable choice for facades. The production of regional tone reduces transport routes and supports the local economy.

How long last thin brick ?

With professional processing, you last decades without losing quality or optics. They are made from the same material as facing brick . This means that they are tough and therefore robust, frost -safe and color right. The longevity makes it an economic solution for clinker facades that have existed over generations.

Are there eco-certifications for thin brick ?

There is an EPD (Environmental Product Declaration) , in German environmental product declaration in which the natural properties and components are described and measured. This EPD can be used for the certification of buildings and supports sustainable building.

Availability and individualization

Is there thin brick in different colors and surfaces?

Yes, thin brick are available in different colors, structures and surfaces, from smooth to rustic, from cream to black, including modern gray tones. The multitude of available options enables individual designs for every clinker wall and every architectural style.

Can thin brick be individually adjusted?

Standard production is controlled via the recipes. Deviations from the recipe are connected to minimum quantities due to production. Sample fires may be necessary for special requirements. We are happy to discuss the possibilities and framework conditions of individualization for special projects.

For special colors or surface structures, we are happy to create patterns in consultation that enable a well -founded decision.

Are there any delivery times when ordering?

As with all building materials, an early request for availability makes sense. Timely planning guarantees timely delivery for your construction project.

Operations and properties

Are thin brick frost -resistant?

Yes, thin brick are frost and weather-resistant, which makes it the ideal and valuable protective shield for your property. Frost resistance is an important property for use outside and ensures decades of durability without loss of quality.

Are thin brick heat -resistant?

Yes, they are not only heat -resistant, but also non -flammable (brand class A1) and are therefore well suited for use on fireplaces or near herds. In connection with a ETICS made of mineral wool or other non -flammable insulation materials, you can be part of a fire protection concept outdoors.

Do thin brick need special care?

thin brick does not need any special care. Your robust properties and the low water intake make you practically maintenance -free. Pollution caused by dust or other contaminants are usually washed off by natural rain.

Where can thin brick use?

Due to their robust properties, thin brick are primarily suitable for use in the weathered outdoor area, such as facades or garden walls. But also indoors, such as B. in kitchen returns, behind fireplaces or in stairwells, they are used as a design means.

The possibility of use in the interior and outdoor area makes it a versatile blend for all areas of application.

Can thin brick contribute to thermal insulation?

thin brick himself does not offer any significant insulation properties. Therefore, they are usually processed in combination with a thermal insulation composite system or on a thermal insulation brick. This solution combines optimal insulation values with authentic clinker look.

Polluting "rough" surfaces faster than smooth?

A thin brick facade wins in character over time - think of the buildings in Hamburg's Speicherstadt. It makes no significant difference whether it is a smooth or structured surface. Dust dirty is usually washed off by rain.

What role does the ceramic play at thin brick ?

thin brick are ceramic products made of burned tone, which are burned at high temperatures of around 1,150 ° C. These ceramic properties give you your characteristic look, hardness and resistance to all weather influences.

How high is the water absorption at thin brick ?

The water absorption of high -quality thin brick is very low, which contributes to its frost resistance and durability. Water can hardly penetrate the material and cause damage, which ensures resistance over decades.

What are the advantages of thin brick compared to other wall cladding?

The advantages of thin brick lie in its durability, low water intake, frost resistance and the variety of available colors and surfaces. They offer all the properties of a real clinker with significantly less weight and expanded possible uses.

Processing of thin brick

How are thin brick attached?

They are glued to a prepared mortar bed with a special adhesive list and then grouted, similar to facing brick n. The selection of the right adhesive list either specifies the system manufacturer of the WDV system used or-if no WDV system is used-advises your building material dealer.

When processing, all requirements of the corresponding standards must be observed in order to ensure permanent and safe attachment.

What is the floating buttering process?

The floating buttering process is a special adhesive technique in which both the back of the thin brick S and the wall surface are coated with adhesive grapes. This ensures optimal liability and avoids processing errors due to fully surface gluing.

Can thin brick also be attached to thermal insulation composite systems (ETICS)?

Yes, thin brick can easily be attached to ETICS, whereby special glue and mortar in connection with reinforcing fabrics and dowels should be used. The processing guidelines of the WDVS manufacturers apply here. All well-known WDVS manufacturers now also offer special systems for thin brick .

Can thin brick be attached directly to plaster?

Rits on plaster can be processed on any sustainable and clean surface. The flush plaster must be free of dust, contamination and separator to ensure permanent liability. The executive specialist company can provide more information to optimally prepare the subsoil.

What system structures are there for thin brick ?

Many WDV systems manufacturers offer systems tailored to thin brick (polystyrene and mineral wool). In addition, they can be processed monolithically, ie directly on a thermal insulation brick with a corresponding flush.

An underground made of aerated concrete is also suitable with the appropriate preparation. There are also pre -made insertion with thin brick , which are glued to the existing walls and doweled. Purified hinted facade systems (VHF) based on cement fiber panels or rail systems are particularly used for large -scale projects.

How is the straps of the straps be prepared?

The attachment surface must be free of dust, contamination and separator. A suitable reason for detention is crucial for permanent attachment of the thin brick . The surface should be sustainable, flat and clean to ensure optimal liability of the adhesive.

Are masonry accents possible with thin brick ?

thin brick offer many opportunities for creative use on the facade. Accents can e.g. B. can be placed via the laying pattern or masonry associations or different colors. Another option is to use different strengths at thin brick , for example 14 and 25 mm.

There are also different surface geometries such as curves, wedge shapes, partial structures and much more to put optical accents on the wall.

Which masonry associations are there?

thin brick is usually laid in the "Wild Association" using the head and runner. The runner association, on the other hand, does not do without heads in the area. In practice, other associations rather play a subordinate role.

You can find an overview of the associations here: https: // www. feldhaus -klinker.de/download/153/ratgeber/28281/mauerwerksverbaende.pdf

Can you move thin brick yourself?

That depends on your own manual skill 😊. Previous knowledge about the division of space, masonry associations and underground treatment are definitely helpful. The processing is easier indoors, since there are usually no demands on moisture and thermal insulation and the thin brick mostly meet a decorative purpose.

Outside, we recommend using a WDV system tailored to thin brick . These systems contain all the necessary materials, such as insulation, dowels, screws, glue, reinforcement mortar and fabric as well as the corresponding straps grout.

Is there Company subject who process thin brick ?

It is often a painter Company who are familiar with the processing of ETICS systems. Ask whether the Company already has experience with the processing of thin brick . We are happy to support you in finding a suitable processor for our thin brick .

Which tools are required for processing?

In addition to the adhesive, special tools such as fugisen are also required for the processing of thin brick . These enable clean and professional joint design.

How are the joints designed at thin brick ?

The joint between the thin brick is filled with special straps and professionally smoothed with a fugisen. The joint design has a great influence on the look and longevity of the entire wall and should be carried out professionally.

How many straps do I need per square meter?

The number of pieces required per square meter depends on the selected format. In the case of NF format, about 48 pieces per square meter are required, accordingly more (64 pieces) due to the lower size. This information is important for the material order and cost calculation. The information refers to a joint thickness of 10 - 12 mm.

Can thin brick also be used at corners?

Yes, there are special angular straps (corners) for building corners that enable clean and professional workmanship. These angular straps are available in all common formats and are produced directly in the required strength and shape.

Feldhaus Klinker is the inventor of the angular straps and has many decades of experience in manufacturing. The angle corners are produced directly in the required strength and shape, which makes sawing from the whole stone superfluous and ensures optimal fit.
