Ranch Brick Tile

SKU: PBS040

The Ranch Brick Tile (SKU: PBS040) is a high-performance solution for decorative brick tiles in Dubai, designed to meet the aesthetic demands of both contemporary and rustic architectural styles. With a standard dimension of 67mm x 205mm and a slim 12mm thickness, these tiles provide the authentic texture of traditional masonry without the structural weight of full-sized bricks. This makes them an ideal choice for exterior brick cladding and interior feature walls across the GCC. Manufactured for durability, the material is thermally stable and UV-resistant, ensuring the facade brick remains vibrant under the intense UAE sun. Installation is efficient on various substrates, including cement boards and masonry, using standard thin-set adhesives. From our Jebel Ali facility, IHGIND supplies these tiles to developers seeking a sophisticated wall brick finish that combines industrial charm with long-term performance in high-traffic commercial and residential environments.

Finish

Features a rugged, multi-tonal earthy texture with a matte finish. The surface diffuses direct sunlight to prevent glare while highlighting the natural depth and grit of the brick material.

Maintenance

Ranch Brick Tiles are low-maintenance. For exterior installations, a low-pressure water wash every six months is sufficient to remove dust. For interior surfaces, occasional vacuuming with a brush attachment or wiping with a damp cloth is recommended. No specialized chemical cleaners are required to maintain the brick's natural appearance.

Frequently asked questions

Are Ranch Brick Tiles suitable for high-rise exterior cladding in the UAE?
Yes, the PBS040 series is engineered specifically for exterior brick cladding in the GCC. The 12mm thickness ensures the tiles are lightweight, reducing the dead load on the building structure compared to full bricks. When installed with high-grade, polymer-modified adhesives (C2TE S1), they offer excellent wind-load resistance and thermal stability, making them a safe and durable choice for both low-rise and high-rise facades in Dubai's climate.
Can these tiles be installed over existing painted walls?
For a secure bond, we recommend removing any existing paint or wallpaper to expose the base substrate, such as cement plaster or concrete. The surface should be clean, dry, and mechanically keyed. If the substrate is particularly smooth, a bonding agent may be required. Using a professional-grade adhesive ensures that your decorative brick tiles remain permanently bonded despite the temperature fluctuations common in the UAE.
Do I need to seal the Ranch Brick Tiles after installation?
While the tiles are inherently durable, applying a breathable, silane-siloxane based sealer is recommended for exterior facade brick in the UAE. This treatment helps repel water and oil-based stains while allowing the brick to 'breathe.' Sealing is particularly beneficial in coastal areas to protect against salt-air crystallization and simplifies the cleaning process for interior applications in high-traffic commercial spaces like cafes and lounges.
