HARD BRICK TILE

SKU: PBS052

The PBS052 Hard Brick Tile from Prastara's Brick Series offers a timeless aesthetic for both indoor and outdoor environments. Measuring 67mm x 205mm with a slim 12mm thickness, these decorative brick tiles in Dubai provide a robust solution for exterior brick cladding without the weight of full-size masonry. Manufactured to withstand the GCC climate, they are ideal for facade brick applications in the UAE. The installation involves standard thin-set mortar on prepared masonry or concrete substrates. These tiles provide a high-performance wall brick finish that resists UV exposure and thermal expansion. Whether used for a rustic feature wall or a modern commercial facade, the PBS052 ensures durability and architectural depth, backed by IHGIND’s 18 years of regional fabrication expertise and our 33,000 sqm Jebel Ali facility.

Finish

Features a rugged, earthy texture with a matte finish that diffuses light naturally, highlighting the authentic clay variations and deep tonal shifts.

Maintenance

Low-maintenance design requires only periodic pressure washing for exterior surfaces or damp wiping for interiors. The dense brick material is naturally resistant to staining and does not require frequent sealing, though a breathable silane-based sealer is recommended for high-traffic exterior facades to maintain the original hue against desert dust and humidity.

Frequently asked questions

Can these tiles be used for high-rise facade brick applications in the UAE?
Yes, the 12mm thickness of the PBS052 Hard Brick Tile makes it an excellent choice for high-rise exterior brick cladding. Its lightweight profile significantly reduces the dead load on the structure compared to traditional full-sized bricks, while the high-fired clay material ensures it can withstand the extreme temperature fluctuations typical of the Dubai climate. When installed with high-quality polymer-modified adhesives, they provide a secure, permanent, and fire-rated finish for large-scale commercial developments and residential towers across the GCC.
What substrate is required for installing decorative brick tiles?
These tiles are designed for application over stable, cured substrates such as cement blocks, cast-in-place concrete, or cement fiber boards. The surface must be clean, dry, and level. For exterior applications in the UAE, we recommend using a weather-resistant barrier and a high-performance thin-set mortar to ensure maximum adhesion. Our Jebel Ali technical team can provide specific installation guidelines and adhesive recommendations based on your project's specific structural requirements and environmental exposure.
Are custom colors available for the Prastara Brick Series?
While the PBS052 features a signature hard-fired finish, IHGIND offers a library of over 500 finishes across our various product ranges. For large-scale architectural projects, we can consult on tonal variations and grout selections to achieve a specific aesthetic vision. Our 33,000 sqm facility in Jebel Ali allows us to manage significant production volumes for regional distribution, ensuring consistency across all batches for your facade brick UAE projects, regardless of the development size.
