Modular Masonry Group

Use any real brick, without the usual limits of traditional brickwork.

Nexbrick is a mechanically fixed brick-facing system that gives architects, builders, developers, engineers and installers a faster, lighter and more flexible way to design and build with real brick.

We supply the Nexbrick backing rail, real brick facings cut from your selected brick, pre-bagged mortar, technical documentation and project support.

What is the Nexbrick System?

A system for real brick facades.

Nexbrick is not a single brick product. It is a mechanical brick-facing system designed to make real brick easier to use across modern facade projects. The system allows real brick facings to be mechanically fixed to a backing rail, reducing weight and opening up more options for complex facades, tight sites, prefabricated panels, soffits, curves and difficult junctions.

What we supply

What we supply through Nexbrick Facade System

  • Nexbrick mechanical backing rail
  • Real brick facings cut from selected compatible bricks
  • Pre-bagged mortar
  • Technical documentation
  • Compatibility guidance

Why brick facings

The real cost of traditional brickwork is rarely just the bricklaying rate.

Traditional brickwork can be a brilliant solution on the right project. But when access, height, program, weight, material handling, scaffolding or complex detailing become an issue, the costs add up fast.

Brick facings reduce facade weight, simplify material handling and improve installation flexibility, making real brick more practical across tight sites, tall facades, soffits, curves and prefabricated panels.

Nexbrick gives project teams another way to use real brick, particularly when traditional masonry becomes too slow, heavy or hard to coordinate.

Where it works best

Where Nexbrick works best.

Nexbrick is designed for projects where traditional brickwork becomes harder to manage. Here are eight common scenarios where the system delivers.

Talk to our team
01 / 08

Tight sites with limited access

Reduced weight makes material handling easier on tight or hard-to-access sites, while offsite preparation can reduce time, labour and complexity onsite.

02 / 08

Commercial and inner-city projects

Supports larger-scale real brick facade delivery with greater schedule certainty.

03 / 08

Tall facades and scaffold zones

Lower facade weight reduces structural load and simplifies work at height.

04 / 08

Soffits, undersides and junctions

Apply real brick to areas where traditional bricklaying is slow, difficult or impractical.

05 / 08

Curves, custom patterns and detailing

The system supports curved walls, custom bonds and complex architectural angles.

06 / 08

Prefabricated panels and modular buildings

Nexbrick works across panelised, modular and onsite construction, giving builders more flexibility in how real brick facades are delivered.

07 / 08

Premium bricks and material efficiency

With many premium bricks, two usable faces can be cut from one brick, effectively doubling the facade yield and reducing the number of expensive bricks required.

08 / 08

Program and sequencing challenges

Where schedule, sequencing and material handling are major project concerns.
