ᐅ Facing bricks fired in different kilns. Are color variations significant?

Hello everyone,

Some friends of ours have a significant leftover stock of facing bricks after their construction project.

We would need about 5-6 additional pallets for our build.

Is it possible to mix these facing bricks, or is it not advisable?

The manufacturer can probably answer this best for you. Brick slips from the same firing batch can also have some color variations. Therefore, it usually shouldn’t be noticeable if you mix different pallets thoroughly. However, the mixing is the tricky part, as some builders prefer to work through one pallet at a time.

Unfortunately, we don’t know anything about your building project or its current status. Why do you need this extra amount, and how did you determine there is additional demand?
Is it at least the "same" facing brick, meaning just a different batch (or do you even know if there are different batches)?
It is difficult to impossible to answer questions properly with so little background information other than with "42" :-(

How much mixing is possible depends on the experience of the installers (and the timing of the laying pattern planning) – and of course also significantly on the bonding pattern used.
