Ketley Brick
Ketley combines this rich heritage of traditional craftsmanship with innovative new manufacturing techniques to produce bespoke shapes, sizes, and intricate surface designs, using 3D printing and digital technologies. By working with architects at the design stage, the company delivers intricate brick facades and surface designs often featured in award-winning architecture.
Ketley continues to explore new avenues and push the boundaries of clay, collaborating with young designers, and this year is proud to be associated with Edward John Milton at EJM Studio in his creation of the acclaimed Censer.
New Etched surface designs - New for 2026 will be a variety of intricate designs created by etching onto the surface of clay products before firing. Ketley have recently developed this technique following their success in producing bespoke 3D printed textures and relief patterns on the surface of fired clay bricks, brick slips, pavers and quarry tiles under the company’s Vision Bricks brand, which will also be on display.
New colours - Ketley is expanding its range of much sought-after organic clay colours, which are produced the traditional way through temperature control of the kiln. New colours will include a brown antique, whose variation in tone gives it a heritage look.
Bespoke shapes and sizes - Ketley is presenting a wide variety of extruded clay products in unusual shapes and sizes, from angular and sharp-edged to gently curved tactile profiles. These can be used to create bold and adventurous wall and floor designs, as well as landscaping features.
Also on display are bespoke embossed patterns and pressed shapes, whose play with light and shade can transform a standard façade into an imaginative textured surface.
In addition, visitors will see Ketley’s standard range of rectangular bricks, Roman-style Linium Bricks, pavers and quarry tiles, all of which are manufactured to the most demanding Class A engineering brick standards and freeze-thaw testing to ensure durability and longevity.
