Finish

The Volcanic Brick Tile features a rugged, earthy texture with a matte finish that diffuses light, highlighting the natural tonal variations and depth of the material.

Maintenance

For exterior facade brick in the UAE, periodic low-pressure washing is recommended to remove dust and sand accumulation. For interior applications, a simple vacuum attachment or damp cloth is sufficient. The 12mm thickness ensures long-term durability; however, we recommend applying a breathable silane-based sealer for outdoor installations to prevent moisture ingress and maintain the original color profile over time.

Frequently asked questions

Can Volcanic Brick Tile be used for high-rise exterior cladding in Dubai?
Yes, our Volcanic Brick Tile is specifically designed for exterior brick cladding on high-rise and low-rise structures across the UAE. The 12mm thickness provides the necessary durability to withstand wind loads and thermal expansion typical of the GCC climate. When installed using high-quality C2TE S1/S2 grade adhesives on a stable substrate, these tiles provide a permanent, low-maintenance facade brick finish. We recommend consulting with our technical team at IHGIND for specific substrate preparation and mechanical fixing requirements for heights exceeding 3 meters to ensure compliance with local building codes and safety regulations.
How does the 67mm x 205mm dimension impact installation and design?
The 67mm x 205mm format is a standard modular size that allows for various laying patterns, including running bond, herringbone, and stack bond. This versatility makes it a preferred choice for decorative brick tiles in Dubai. While smaller than large-format panels, these tiles allow for greater precision around architectural details, windows, and corners. At our Jebel Ali facility, we ensure consistent sizing to minimize grout line variances. For large-scale projects, our procurement team can provide estimated lead times and logistics support to ensure the material arrives on-site ready for immediate installation by skilled masonry teams, reducing on-site cutting and waste.
Is sealing required for the Volcanic Brick Tile in outdoor environments?
While the brick material is inherently durable, we strongly recommend applying a high-quality, non-film-forming sealer for all exterior brick cladding and facade brick applications in the UAE. This protects the porous surface from airborne pollutants, salt spray in coastal areas, and potential efflorescence. A breathable sealer maintains the natural matte finish while making the surface easier to clean. For interior feature walls, sealing is optional but can help prevent staining in high-traffic commercial areas like restaurants or hotel lobbies. Prastara offers guidance on compatible sealing products based on your specific project requirements and the environmental conditions of the site.
