All colors are available in a smooth, sanded, textured or dragwire finish and with the choice of either a ribbed or dovetail key on reverse.
Ketley Brick’s range of extruded brick slips eliminate the need and cost to cut down bricks for use with pre-fabricated panels and other cladding solutions. They have only 30% of the embodied carbon of a traditional cut brick slip and are a highly durable, sustainable and cost effective choice for construction.
Ketley Brick Slips are manufactured from the same clay, using the same processes as the Ketley Class A Engineering bricks and Dreadnought Roof Tiles to deliver the same technical characteristics of very low water absorption, very high strength and unrivalled frost resistance.
Ketley Brick Slips are the sustainable choice to create authentic brick facades for both external and internal applications. All the colors are achieved naturally through the careful control of the kiln atmosphere without the use of surface pigments or artificial stains. This generates a warmth and authenticity to the brick colors which cannot be matched.
Manufacturing and quality

Ketley is quality assured to ISO 9001:2008.
The environment and sustainability
We take our environmental commitments seriously and exceed all the necessary legislation in this area. Our modern plant operates an Environmental Management System accredited to ISO 14001:2004 and we are consistently working to improve our energy and production efficiency.
Sustainable development is about delivering a better quality of life for everyone, now and for generations to come. Our task is to use resources as efficiently as possible, to reduce waste, to minimise the energy used in manufacture and to ensure that our products have the longest possible
lifespan.
Ketley Bricks manufactured over 100 years ago are still in use today. This surely demonstrates their sustainability. We believe that the most reliable measure of sustainability is to calculate the embodied energy in production, divided by the useful life of the products.
100 year tradition
Ketley was founded over 100 years ago and forms part of the Hinton Perry & Davenhill family business, which began making Dreadnought Clay Roof Tiles in 1805. The company has a long tradition of clay craft and a passion to create the finest natural clay building materials.
