- Brick Wall Cladding:Company with a Steel Backing
Brick cladding is one of the oldest exterior wall cladding schemes, combining a striking appearance with excellent durability and structural benefits. Bricks are fire-resistant, thermally stable, long-lasting, weather-resistant, low-maintenance, and non-toxic, and they have excellent sound insulation.Bricks are also environmentally friendly, since they can be recycled, reused, or crushed for fill. Bricks come in a variety of colours, shapes, finishes, and textures, giving you more style options.
Steel Backed Brick Company specialises in lightweight brick cladding systems that incorporate hand cut bricks into a steel rail that is mechanically attached to the substrate.Steel-backed brick walls are highly durable and can be used in earthquake areas with ease. To make an authentic brick wall cladding, the brick tiles are cut from actual bricks.

Bellstone offers sandstone, bluestone, granite, and quartzite as natural stone cladding options. Natural stone external wall cladding is perfect for feature walls, pool areas, retaining walls, stairwells, and fireplaces, as well as around columns and fountains. Select a natural stone that blends in with the surrounding environment. The absorption of water by high-density stones is reduced, which slows the discoloration process. Darker colours in natural stone cladding are simpler to preserve so soil doesn't turn up as quickly. Lighter colours, on the other hand, would need more frequent washing to avoid staining.
With its striking appearance, natural stone or tile cladding brings charm to new houses. Natural stone is also very long-lasting, serves as an outstanding insulator, is resistant to harsh climates, prevents burning, withstands abrasions and scratches, and is simple to maintain. Natural stone, on the other hand, is more costly than other wall cladding options and requires more labour during construction. For support, natural stone cladding requires a structural substrate.
