Brick slips are an eighth of the depth of a traditional brick, giving up to eight brick faces for the same volume of clay. EWI applied alongside the brick slips, is designed to keep a building cool in the summer and warm in winter, making the entire building more energy efficient.

21st century construction The construction business has changed considerably over the decades, and life on site has evolved to become much more safety-conscious.
EWI and brick slip solutions remove many of the dangers associated with traditional bricklaying. Clay slips and lightweight brick slips – a slimmed down version – offer a solution to applying bricks to taller buildings without compromising stability. It is the perfect solution to the current vogue for building ever-higher towers in space restricted city centre sites, which need to take their place among older traditional brick constructions. Using brick slips, architects can pay homage to Britain’s bricklaying heritage but in a way that fits with 21st century construction.
