Wherever you are in Britain, you won't be far from a building with a Forterra brick, block or bespoke clay or concrete product somewhere in its fabric. Our history of manufacturing building products began in the 19th century; we kept Britain building right through the 20th century; and we continue to be at the forefront of building innovation in the 21st century so you, and future generations, can continue to build history.
Whether you're looking for the latest in offsite manufacturing techniques for your next commercial project; for a high volume, sustainable brick supply for a new housing development; or maybe even bespoke, hand-crafted clay products for a heritage restoration project, our products and services are Keeping Britain Building.
In continuous production since 1877, London Brick has been used in the construction of almost a quarter of England's housing stock, becoming an icon of the British built landscape. Today, it is produced primarily for the residential renovation, maintenance and improvement market.
