ᐅ Which type of facing brick or clinker is this? Does anyone have experience with these materials?

Hello,


we are currently still searching for the right brick. We had actually both agreed on one, but its WDF format would have meant an additional cost of around €3,500, which would have strained our budget.


Now we have found a budget-friendly alternative in the NF format. Unfortunately, the intermediary does not want to disclose the name, and the only reference building is a bungalow. We still like the brick there, but based on our experience, the appearance of a brick can also depend on the house style/type. Therefore, we would like to see the brick once more on a 1.5-story gable roof house.


Attached are the photos. We imagine it would look nice with anthracite windows, gray mortar joints, and a black roof.


Perhaps someone knows the name of this brick...

Because the broker gave us this house as a reference address—as an alternative to the brick we prefer, which is too expensive for us in the WDF format due to higher labor costs.

Well, then I would suggest asking the homeowners there directly. Why doesn’t this middleman want to reveal under what name your building supply store should order the facing brick from him? The building supply store is hardly going to order "brick unknown, like from the reference bungalow"...

It is called ZT 5094 and is offered to the mason by the building supply store under this name. They don’t really care about the name either.

I suppose if he mentions the name, there is a risk that the building supply store will bypass him and order directly from the manufacturer. Then no profit will be made.

Then he should just tell you what the hardware store should tell the supplier so that you can get the facing brick.

Well, that’s listed under the name ZT5094, which doesn’t really help us identify it to look up a gable roof as a reference.

The hardware store might be able to tell you that a certain customer also bought that particular brick.
