Facade brick tiles are a great choice for home decoration. Brick-like facing tiles for exterior finishes Brick-like exterior tiles

For brick walls, it is a versatile finish that has a classic design, functionality and practicality.

Types of decorative brick facing tiles

Based on the raw materials and the firing principle, clinker and brick-like ceramics are distinguished. The ceramic base is made from fusible clays. Since the firing and processing of the product takes about two hours, the final cost of the product is quite affordable. The appearance is attractive, however, the strength indicators are not up to par.

Clinker dough is kneaded from slate types of refractory clay. It will take 36 hours to fire at 1250-1300 degrees. The main advantages are high density with low water absorption, low thermal conductivity and good frost resistance. The weight is not significant, “ripening” over time, that is, an increase in strength, is noteworthy. The price is quite high.

Facade tiles facing brick - advantages and applications

In general, facing under a brick will extend the life of the facade for decades, improve the thermal insulation properties. Ease of installation and dismantling will allow you to replace a damaged element without disassembling neighboring ones, “brick” tiles can be rustic, with a smooth or embossed surface. The wall has a thickness of 8-15 mm.

Finishing "pseudo" brick is more often used for external work. Indoors, such tiles are used for facing arched elements, window and door openings, and fireplaces. The classic design makes it possible to fit the material into various styles.

Installation can be done dry or wet. The last method is to glue the tiles using special mortars. You can pre-insulate the wall with polystyrene foam. The option of dry works is to create a "ventilated" facade. The cladding is "planted" on the wall itself, provided that the deviations are not more than 6 mm, or on the crate.

Should you save money on home improvements? Facing imitating brick will fully justify the costs.

Specialization: facade finishing, interior finishing, construction of dachas, garages. The experience of an amateur gardener and horticulturist. He also has experience repairing cars and motorcycles. Hobbies: playing the guitar and much more, for which there is not enough time :)

Currently, brick tiles exist in various types, which differ in both appearance and performance. Therefore, beginners are often interested in - which of the materials to choose in this or that case? I suggest that you familiarize yourself with the most popular types of tiles and their features, which will allow you to independently answer the question posed for yourself.

Types of tiles

So, at present, the following types of facing materials imitating brick can be found on sale:

Option 1: from clinker

Clinker tiles most reliably imitate various types of bricks. If it is glued with high quality, then it is impossible to distinguish it from natural material.

Moreover, this product resembles a brick not only in appearance, but also in its operational qualities, due to which it can be used not only for interior decoration, but also as a facade tile.

Advantages:

• Durability. Many manufacturers guarantee a material life of 100 years even for outdoor use;
• moisture resistance. The coating is not afraid of direct contact with water and even detergents, so it can be used for an apron. True, in this case it is desirable to varnish the tile, since it has a rough porous surface that is difficult to clean;

• UV resistance. The material does not lose color during the entire service life;
• Environmental friendliness. It is made from clinker clay and does not contain harmful substances;
• Large selection of colors and shades. This allows you to choose the material for any interior and for every taste.

Laying tiles under a brick is carried out in the same way as conventional ceramic tiles, i.e. with the obligatory alignment of the seams and position relative to the vertical. The only thing is that each row must be glued with an offset to imitate brickwork.

Flaws:

• High price. Clinker decorative tiles are the most expensive brick imitation;
Like other ceramic products, this material does not like impacts, which can lead to the formation of chips and cracks.

Price. Below are the prices for clinker tiles, relevant in the summer of 2017:

Option 2: tiled

Ceramic tiles are usually used exclusively for indoor use. Most often it is used in bathrooms and in the kitchen.

As for the design, it is usually done under white brick, but you can also find material in other colors - black, red gray, etc. The surface can be glossy or matte.

Thanks to the smooth surface, the coating is easy to clean, so it is great for the kitchen. Otherwise, the performance properties are the same as those of clinker tiles. The only thing is that the durability is somewhat less, as the surface scratches over time and loses its attractiveness.

Advantages:

Option 3: porcelain stoneware

Porcelain tile in many ways resembles tile, but it is made from high-quality clay and ground rocks, which makes it more resistant to mechanical stress, as well as negative environmental influences. Therefore, it can be used not only as an internal, but also as an external tile.

In addition to strength and durability, this material has almost all the qualities of clinker and tile. As for the design, the product can imitate brick, broken brick and stone.

Price:

Option 4: from plaster

Gypsum tiles are quite light and beautiful finishing material. It can also imitate various types of bricks and natural stone.

Advantages:

• Low cost. Gypsum products are cheaper than ceramic counterparts;
• Regulates humidity. Gypsum absorbs excess moisture in the room, and gives it back when the air is too dry.

Flaws. As you might guess, this material is used exclusively for interior decoration. Moreover, gypsum is unstable to moisture, so the product can only be used in dry rooms.

The installation instructions for gypsum tiles do not allow the use of conventional tile adhesive. Therefore, it is necessary to purchase a special gypsum glue or "liquid nails".

Price:

Option 5: composite

Composite or flexible tile is a modern material that consists of two components - marble chips and an acrylic binder. Thanks to the latter, the product is really flexible, which gives it some advantages over the products described above.

Flexible brick is easily cut with ordinary scissors

• The possibility of finishing surfaces of complex shapes. It is easy to decorate columns, arches and other similar structures with this tile;
Flexible brick does not crack even with strong impacts.

Flaws. The disadvantage of the product is the rather high cost.

The front tile under a brick is a kind of a front tile. Brick-like facing facade tiles are distinguished by a variety of colors and surface types. It is important to note that the front surface of the facade tile is absolutely similar to the front brick from the same series and has similar technical characteristics. Brick-like facade tiles include several types of outwardly similar products that differ from each other in the manufacturing method, raw materials, technical parameters and are divided into the following main types of brick-like facade tiles - ceramic facade brick-like clinker tiles; concrete facade hyper-pressed brick-like tiles (facade tiles "torn stone"); ceramic facade tiles imitating hand-molded bricks (antique facade tiles).

With their appearance and technical characteristics, brick-like facade tiles are almost completely identical to facade facing bricks. The only significant difference between brick-like facing facade tiles and facade facing bricks is the dimensions of the product and its weight, for a standard facing brick, the width of the product is approximately 115-120 mm, for a brick-like tile, the width is usually from 9 to 14 mm, the difference in these parameters certainly affects the mass of the product. Such parameters as height and length are almost identical for front bricks and facade tiles for bricks. From facade tiles under brick, as well as from facing bricks, you can finish the facade of the house according to the principle of "Bavarian masonry". Finishing according to the "Bavarian masonry" type implies the simultaneous use of a finishing material of brown and red colors in an arbitrary geometric pattern. The type of masonry "Bavarian masonry" is currently very popular in Russia and Europe.

Clinker facade tiles under the brick

Facade clinker tiles brick-like is a kind of brick-like facade facing tile used for finishing the facades of houses, buildings and structures, which has the highest strength, frost resistance, juicy color that does not change over time, the ability not to absorb and repel moisture. The coefficient of water absorption of facade clinker tiles under brick is less than 6%.
Clinker tiles for bricks have the same dimensions as the facing , but differs from clinker bricks in its thickness, as a rule, the thickness of clinker tiles for bricks is 9-14 mm.
Brick-like facade clinker tiles are used for cladding the facades of buildings and finishing the interior walls of the room, to give the interior an original look.
It is especially necessary to single out brick-like clinker tiles from Germany, which are widely represented on the Russian market. from Germany is distinguished by the highest quality products and a variety of colors. Sales volumes of facade clinker tiles for Feldhaus Klinker bricks are steadily increasing every year in Russia. The German concern produces not only clinker tiles, but also facing, as well as paving . Among the types of clinker presented in Russia from Europe, Feldhaus clinker is one of the brightest sales leaders of clinker - facade clinker tiles for brick, paving clinker bricks and front clinker bricks.

Facade clinker brick tiles have the following technical characteristics:

Manufacturer	The weight, kg/piece	Size, mm	Consumption pieces/m2	Water treatment - polishing	Frost resistance	Appointment of clinker tiles
Feldhaus	0,364	240x71x9			300 cycles	Facade cladding
Robin	0,54	240x71x14			300 cycles	Facade cladding
ABC	0,354	240x71x10			300 cycles	Facade cladding

Facade clinker brick tiles, in addition, are used for cladding facade thermal panels, in which the insulation is polystyrene, and the facing material is brick-like facade tiles. Facade thermal panels with brick-like clinker tiles allow you to quickly veneer and at the same time insulate the facades of houses. Facade thermal panels can be bought wholesale and retail in ready-made form with clinker facade tiles already glued to the insulation under a brick, or separately - a thermal panel, facade clinker tiles under brick and glue, in this case the facade clinker tiles are glued on their own. The kits include dowels for fixing to the wall and special grouts for joints between clinker brick tiles. In Russia, the following types of facade panels are most often found on sale: Europe facade panels, REHAUS facade panels with facade clinker ABC brick effect tiles and KamphaTherm façade panels with Feldhaus Klinker brick look clinker tiles. Without preparatory work, thermal panels with guides are attached with universal dowels directly to the outer wall. This eliminates time-consuming work on the foundation and, as a rule, there is no need to lengthen the roof overhangs over the gable and cornice overhangs.
Cladding and insulation of the facade with the KamphaTherm insulation system with Feldhaus Klinker clinker facade tiles, Europe and Rehaus panels with ABC clinker brick tiles from Germany and other facade panels, provides excellent protection of house facades from moisture penetration, maintains density during heavy rains, but allows the diffusion of steam from the room to the outside, i.e. is vapor permeable. This helps to avoid damage due to sweating and keeps clinker brick tiles and other expensive building materials intact for a long period of time. Renovation of the facade will be needed only after decades!!!

Facade tiles under hand-molded brick

The front tile under a brick of manual molding (front tile semi-antique) is a kind of a front clinker tile under a brick. At present, in order to obtain a brick facade from hand-molded bricks, it is not at all necessary to use a solid facing facade ceramic hand-moulded brick- this is not always advisable for economic and constructive reasons. Therefore, more and more often, to imitate the facade of facade decorative facing clinker bricks, Customers use the material - decorative facade facing clinker tiles for brick and hand-molded clinker tiles from Germany. A wonderful alternative to facing full-size hand-molded bricks is facade tiles imitating hand-molded bricks, for example, made either by extrusion or by mechanical separation (by chipping or sawing off) of the decorative facade part of the brick. With the first production option - extrusion, the facade tile for hand-molded bricks has a thickness of no more than 12-14 mm, while with mechanical separation of the facade tile, its thickness is 22-25 mm. Facade decorative tiles of hand molded bricks are produced by cutting the front part from hand molded bricks.
In this case, brick effect tiles and hand-moulded bricks have the same surface and do not differ from real hand-moulded bricks.
Also, the corners of the tiles are cut from full-bodied hand-molded bricks, this allows you to produce a facade of the house, the appearance of which does not differ in any way from a full-sized brick facade lined with hand-molded bricks.

Facade tiles under the brick hyperpressed

Due to the wide range of colors and texture of the front surface, the facade, which is also called facade concrete tiles, makes any building unique.
In the production of facing concrete hyperpressed tiles, only environmentally friendly materials are used: cement, crushed limestone, dolomite, pigments that are allowed for use in the production of building materials and are sufficiently resistant to harmful environmental influences. Facing hyper-pressed brick-like tiles are distinguished by the exact shape of the product and the unusual texture of the front surface - facade hyper-pressed tiles “under a torn stone”.
A large combination of colors of facing facade tiles imitating brick by hyperpressing, its durability and water repellency and low weight, make it possible to use hyperpressed concrete brick tiles for cladding facades, exterior and interior walls of buildings, cladding fences and other small architectural forms.
Thanks to the perfect hyper-pressing system, brick-like facing tiles, as well as facing hyperpressed brick, stands out for its good quality and stable characteristics, such as frost resistance (F-75), strength (M-300), moisture absorption (no more than 6.3% - the likelihood of efflorescence is reduced). It is important to note that, if necessary, it is possible to improve all quality indicators and make concrete facade hyper-pressed brick-like tiles in any color.
Semi-dry hyper-pressing of facade tiles is based on the "cold welding" process, which occurs when finely milled limestone or dolomite rock is pressed under high pressure. The addition of water and cement as a binder makes it possible to bring the required pressing pressure and grinding depth to technically and economically acceptable limits. Facade facing hyper-pressed brick tiles are produced by cutting the front part from facing hyper-pressed bricks or, if appropriate equipment is available, by separate hyper-pressing of blanks of facade tiles. Hyper-pressed brick-like facing facade tiles are perfectly used when laying the exterior and interior walls of a house and serve to protect the facade from atmospheric influences and to give the house an aesthetic appeal. Houses lined with facade hyper-pressed brick-like tiles are distinguished by their appearance and the infinity of architectural and aesthetic solutions. Yellow, red, brown color in combination with the face of hyper-pressed tiles "torn stone" (similar to crushed brick) give each house its own uniqueness.
A wide range of colors and technology of mechanical chipping on the facade hyperpressed tiles (decoration under "torn stone") is a real find for any designer and architect. In Europe, hyperpressing technology has been successfully used for more than ten years, thanks to the beauty and durability of products.
Using the technology of mechanical chipping on the facade tiles under the brick allows you to get the unique texture of each brick. High strength, frost resistance, erosion resistance and durability of facing hyperpressed brick-like tiles make it possible to finish the facades of buildings in various climatic zones.

Brick finish is an example of a successful combination of classic design, practicality and functionality. Among all the options, facing facade tiles stand out for their excellent decorative and thermal insulation properties, ease of installation and affordable cost. The raw material is concrete, clay of elite grades or other natural building materials. This is not just an alternative to facing bricks, but a full-fledged high-quality exterior coating with a variety of sizes, colors and assortment.

Depending on the feedstock and manufacturing technology, facade ceramics stylized as a brick and clinker tiles are distinguished. In the first case, it is made from fusible clay at a low firing temperature, the workflow rarely exceeds 2 hours. Such a coating has an affordable cost, it is beautiful and light, but fragile. Another thing is facing clinker tiles made of refractory slate grades, produced during a 36-hour firing at a temperature of about 1300 ° C. The output is a high-strength and hardened finishing material with excellent performance:

1. Low water absorption (maximum 4%), liquid does not penetrate inside due to the characteristics of the crystal lattice, rain simply washes away dust from the brick surface.
2. Low thermal conductivity - 1.05 W/m*°C.
3. Considerable density - 2300 kg/m3.
4. Light weight, minimal load on the foundation and load-bearing structures.
5. High resistance to external influences: atmospheric, mechanical and biological - more than traditional bricks.
6. Frost resistance of a facing tile not less than 150 cycles.
7. The unique ability to ripen, over the years the material only becomes stronger.

Brick-like tiles have a strengthening function - they hold the walls of the building like a monolith and increase their service life up to 50 years. It has all the advantages of ceramics and natural stone. Great restoration potential: the use of brick-like tiles allows you to quickly update the facade. If necessary, damaged masonry elements are easy to replace (high-quality clinker does not fade in the sun even after a long period). The texture of the facing surface stylized as a brick can be different: smooth, embossed, rustic.

Standard Options

The thickness depends on the raw material, for decorative concrete tiles it is 24 mm, for ceramics and clinker it is about 8–14 mm. The dimensions are determined by the type of simulated brick, typical length and width:

• Single 250×65 mm.
• One and a half 250 × 70.
• Double 250×120.

There are also non-standard sizes of lining (240x52, 240x88 mm), depending on the manufacturer. For ease of calculation, the manufacturer indicates the number of pieces per 1 m2. Finding the required figure is simple: you should subtract the size of the openings from the total area of ​​​​the building and add 10% for culling. At the same time, tolerances for grouting joints (also indicated in the certificate) are taken into account. The calculation of planar dimensions is carried out in m2, and the corner elements of the masonry - in linear meters.

Scope of application

The stylized brick is intended for external and internal facing works. An excellent option for the restoration of outdated facades, decorating and increasing the insulating characteristics of any outdoor surfaces and even paving paths. Wall requirements are minimal, perfect alignment is not necessary. Examples of interior decoration: lining of fireplaces, arches and window openings, non-standard surfaces. High aesthetics allows brick-like tiles to fit into any interior, the classic is combined with many styles.

Styling technologies

Depending on the method of facing the external walls, there are wet and dry installation methods. In the first case, the tiles are glued to a clean and even surface using special mixtures. It is advisable to carry out the cladding in combination with insulation with polystyrene sheets. Further steps: priming with deep penetration agents, marking and gluing the facing tiles.

You should carefully consider the location of the "bricks", the surface parameters are not always a multiple of their size, and the cut edges are very noticeable around window and door openings. There is a special corner clinker, which is advised to start facing. Gluing the main surface is first done from below. It is best to start from a noticeable corner and from the second row to hide possible irregularities when cutting the clinker for the plinth lining.

Proper application helps to obtain the desired aesthetic characteristics without excessive costs. This article discusses brick tiles for interior decoration in detail: the price of various modifications, effective laying methods. This information can be used to perform work on your own, as well as to control the actions of hired contractors.

Where and how ceramic tiles are used for brick, other materials

The use of brick for interior decoration is associated with the features noted in the previous section of the article. Products of this category are created, like clinker, from clay. The main difference in this option is the creation of a special surface layer. It not only looks different, but also provides additional protection. It should be noted that pollution does not firmly attach to glossy surfaces. They are not difficult to clean with inexpensive detergents.

To get at your disposal additional features, you should carefully study the new items. Even ceramic products of this category are not created only from clay. A special selection of components creates the technical and aesthetic characteristics necessary for future users. With the addition of polymer binders, brick-like tiles are produced for interior decoration made of marble and. Other combinations of different materials are used, various types of processing of the initial components are used.

How brick facade tiles are used in practice

This article focuses on interior decoration. However, increased resistance to external influences makes it necessary to separately study the use of facing tiles for bricks. Particularly attractive are products made of baked clay. The expediency of this decision is explained by several arguments.

If followed by painting, a partial repair will be required in a few years. The outer layers of this type are too thin. They are damaged by solar radiation, temperature and humidity changes. The base of a mixture of sand and cement is destroyed by cracks. Significant disadvantages can be identified when studying other options:

• Wooden products rot, significantly change shape and size during operation.
• Metal profiled sheets look appropriate in warehouse and industrial premises.
• Natural stone is too expensive.
• Gypsum and flexible tiles have to be additionally protected from moisture and other external influences.
• It will take a lot of time and money to build a decorative brick wall. Such a structure weighs a lot, and to maintain integrity, an accurate calculation of the interface with the main architectural elements of the building is needed.

A comparative analysis allows us to clarify the advantages of facing tiles for a ceramic brick facade:

• such products are inexpensive;
• their dimensions remain unchanged during the entire service life;
• they are not subject to the above atmospheric and biological influences;
• does not cause difficulties;
• light weight and the choice of mounting technology simplify the implementation of the project;
• installation and repair work can be done independently using simple and understandable techniques.

Additional "pluses" are combined brick tiles for outdoor decoration. The combination of ceramic and porous polymer provides strength and excellent insulation performance. This does not absorb water like typical fiber mats. After its installation, operating costs will be reduced. It will be easier to maintain comfortable conditions in the rooms. The value of the property will increase, and the external walls will receive reliable protection.

Useful information on the use of decorative brick-like tiles for interior decoration

It is necessary to choose consumables for future work after preliminary approval of the list of individual requirements. If this is not done, the search time in the vast range of offers in the modern market will increase significantly.

First, aesthetic characteristics are determined. It is necessary to remember not only the compliance with the main color scheme. For example, the use of antique brick tiles will look out of place in an ultra-modern "sterile" one. Although it should be noted the fashion trend of eclecticism. Sometimes, instead of a harmonious mixture of styles, a clearly alien element is used, which draws attention to certain parts of the room.

A wide variety of experiments can be performed quickly and without unnecessary costs with the help of graphic editors.

At the next stage, it is clarified how the brick facing tiles correspond to the operating mode. In a complex, external influences are evaluated along with those that arise during the cleaning process. Some expensive and durable products are much more practical than cheap coatings that have to be restored frequently.

Next, you should clarify the installation technology in order to draw the correct conclusion about the method of performing work operations. If it is difficult to make repairs yourself, you will have to use the services of specialized specialists. The final decision is made taking into account all relevant factors.

Kitchen interior design and practicality of modern materials

When repairing a property as a whole, they begin with the design of the most. Given the technical characteristics, the benefits of using brick tiles for the kitchen are understandable. A variety of work operations are regularly performed here. They are accompanied by a rapid change in temperature, hanging humidity levels. During the study of finishing materials, special attention is paid to the place of eating. Surfaces that are resistant to fats and aggressive chemical compounds, not too careful handling, are suitable here.

What is the use of tiles in the bedroom

It is necessary to create favorable conditions for a relaxing holiday.

This material does not impair the composition of the atmosphere in the room. Even with direct sunlight on the wall, the coating retains the freshness of paints for a long service life.

Spectacular decoration of the living room
