Check out our brand new dedicated website for Eco-Glazed Brick Slips

Tiles in the Eco-Glazed Brick Slip Range

Our Eco-Glazed Brick Slip range is produced from recycled Welsh slate, which is fired to form a 215x65x15mm (+/-2mm) brick slip. The brick slip is then glazed and re-fired to produce a durable and highly decorative product for external and internal applications.

Eco-Glazed Brick Slips are made from a blend of recycled Welsh slate and locally sourced Etruria clay. A great product, sustainably sourced, thereby reducing pollution and waste in the process.

We now have 18 standard brick slip colours available, however, almost any colour from the RAL selector or Pantone colour finder can be applied if required. Custom colours are subject to a minimum order quantity of 10m². Please note that matt and opaque glazes may not be available in brick slip colours. Please note custom colours could have a longer lead time as a sample shade needs to be produced and agreed ahead of production. Contact our sales office for exact details: sales@hesmith.co.uk 

Important: Please download the technical data sheet before calculating the quantity of brick slips required.

Creating Design Accents

H&E Smith are proud of the range of applications to which architects and specifiers have put our eco glazed brick slips to in their creative interior and exterior projects. Our site features a number of examples of installations featuring these tiles.

These design accents can be employed to create a dramatic and hard wearing  statement and are suitable for use in a wide variety of settings. Glazed brick slips are an increasingly popular tile with many clients and have become the wall covering of choice in numerous bespoke interior design projects.

How Our Customers Are Using Brick Slips

While not everyone may have heard of ‘brick slips’, chances are they have seen them hundreds of times in homes, shops and restaurants without even realising what they were looking at! In order to create striking interior or exterior architectural finishes, very thin facings of brick or glazed tile are frequently used.

These brick slip tiles are applied to a wall in order to produce a high quality brick or tiled wall finish.  As these thin surface facings are lighter and cheaper to produce than using solid blocks, they have become an extremely popular building and design resource for architects and specifiers alike.

Eco-Glazed Brick Slips are particularly useful, and are very useful from a design perspective. Reasons for this include both the wide colour range available and smooth, lustrous surface finish, suitable for interior or exterior use. H&E Smith have worked with a number of architects and designers to create striking and evocative architectural features for a number of prestigious clients.

Below are featured some of the projects we have worked on that showcase these versatile products:

Brick Slips For Home Exterior Design

An increasingly popular trend is to use brick slips to create a focal point visible from the rear of the house. As properties are being extended, brick slips are added to the outer wall to add the feeling of a grand entrance into the house from the garden area.

Project: Joule’s Brewery, Market Drayton

A tiling project undertaken for the Joule’s Brewery. As a maker of traditional ales, Joule’s brand values focus on Old English style pubs. They state that “pubs which have served communities for centuries, which connect us to our fellow countrymen, and also to our past, a reminder of simpler times and the bonds we share.”

Heritage and traditional values are an essential element of their brand and they chose to use our eco glazed brick slip tiles in conjunction with bare brick to convey that mood within their interior design.See further images from this project.
