Founded in 1908 and still wholly Australian owned, Austral Bricks has grown to become Australia’s largest and most innovative manufacturer of clay bricks and pavers. Semi-glazed architectural bricks Design conscious? You’ll love our Elements series architectural bricks with richly-glazed colours that shimmer and glow. Ideal for contemporary designs, Elements bricks look sensational on their own or in a composite facade design.

Terraçade is a complete system – fast and easy to install and requiring no special tools or training – that is fully tested to Australian standards. Suitable for facades to 40 storeys (Terracade XP), Terracade comes in a range of earthy, natural colours that are guaranteed to be durable and colourfast for a long life. Bowral dry-pressed bricks For more than a century Australian architects have recognised the timeless style and quality of Bowral dry-pressed bricks. These character-filled bricks are made to last using time-honoured techniques coupled with modern technology. Their unique colour blends, crisp edges and characteristic fine face crazing guarantees an authenticity that comes from traditional manufacturing techniques. Nubrik pressed bricks In a homogeneous world, it’s refreshing to find a truly authentic product. The rich colours and blends of Nubrik Classic230 and Aspect290 pressed bricks are as natural as the minerals they are made from. These are solid, honest bricks, moulded on century-old presses. Their subtly-textured faces and crisply-defined edges will maintain their genuine appeal and durability for generations to come. Concrete masonry Austral Masonry is Australia’s new force in concrete masonry. The company manufactures and sells grey concrete masonry in a full range of sizes, fractions and accessories. Widely regarded as Australia’s best, Austral Masonry’s GB Masonry range captures the colour and character of natural sandstone. Their fine surface finish perfectly complements traditional and contemporary designs. Stain-resistant, large-format clay pavers Sit back and relax with Riviera Freedom stain-resistant clay pavers.
