Finish

The ZECO BRICK TILE features a rugged, earthy texture with a matte finish that diffuses sunlight. Its deep tonal variations become more pronounced under directional architectural lighting.

Maintenance

For exterior applications, a periodic low-pressure water wash is sufficient to remove desert dust. For interior use, vacuuming with a brush attachment or wiping with a damp cloth is recommended. The 12mm brick material is naturally durable; however, applying a breathable sealer is advised in high-moisture zones to prevent efflorescence and maintain the original color profile.

Frequently asked questions

Is ZECO BRICK TILE suitable for high-rise exterior cladding in Dubai?
Yes, ZECO BRICK TILE is specifically engineered for exterior brick cladding in the UAE. Its 12mm thickness makes it significantly lighter than traditional bricks, reducing the dead load on the building structure. When installed with high-grade flexible adhesives, it withstands the extreme thermal expansion and contraction typical of the Middle Eastern climate. It is a preferred choice for developers seeking a durable facade brick finish that maintains its aesthetic integrity over decades.
What substrate preparation is required for installation?
The tiles should be applied to a clean, flat, and structurally sound substrate. For UAE projects, this typically involves cured cement plaster or calcium silicate boards. Ensure the surface is free of dust and oils. We recommend a notched trowel application of a C2-class tile adhesive to ensure maximum bond strength, especially for outdoor facade applications where wind loads and temperature fluctuations are significant factors.
Can these tiles be used near heat sources like fireplaces?
Absolutely. As a kiln-fired brick product, ZECO BRICK TILE is naturally fire-resistant and ideal for interior wall brick finishes surrounding fireplaces or in commercial kitchen environments. It does not emit VOCs when exposed to heat, making it a safe and sustainable choice for indoor air quality in residential and hospitality projects across the GCC.
