Finish

The tile features a rugged, matte texture that naturally diffuses sunlight, showcasing deep earthy tones and subtle variations without reflecting glare.

Maintenance

These tiles are exceptionally low-maintenance. For exterior surfaces, a low-pressure water wash every six months removes desert dust. For interior use, simple dry dusting or a damp cloth is sufficient. The material is UV-stable and does not require frequent chemical sealing in standard dry environments.

Frequently asked questions

Can these tiles be used for high-rise exterior cladding?
Yes, the Mortar Brick Tile is specifically engineered for exterior brick cladding in both high-rise and low-rise developments. At only 12mm thickness, these tiles are lightweight, which reduces the dead load on the building structure compared to traditional full bricks. They are installed using high-performance, flexible adhesives designed to withstand the extreme thermal expansion and contraction cycles common in the UAE climate, ensuring long-term adhesion and safety.
Are these tiles suitable for high-moisture areas?
While primarily used for facade brick UAE projects and dry interior walls, they can be installed in well-ventilated semi-wet areas. Because brick is naturally porous, we recommend applying a high-quality breathable sealer to prevent moisture absorption and potential efflorescence. Our technical team at the Jebel Ali facility can provide specific guidance on substrate preparation and sealing products for projects involving pool surrounds or coastal locations.
What is the typical lead time for large-scale GCC projects?
As a Dubai-based manufacturer with a 33,000 sqm facility, IHGIND offers competitive lead times. Standard orders for the Prastara Brick Series typically ship within 2 to 4 weeks. For large-scale procurement across the GCC, we coordinate closely with developers to provide phased deliveries, ensuring materials arrive on-site in Riyadh, Doha, or Muscat exactly when needed to meet construction milestones.
