Lightweight Brick Cladding Sydney & NSW

A smart alternative to full brickwork

Lightweight brick cladding offers the look and feel of a traditional brick wall, without the structural demands, cost, or time required for full brick construction. Using any face brick cut into a slip and a stainless steel rail system, brick slips can be installed onto a suitable backing surface, creating a durable façade that looks just like genuine brickwork.

At MD Brick, we supply and install lightweight brick cladding in Sydney, the Central Coast, Newcastle, and wider NSW. Builders, architects, and renovators trust us for our efficiency and style.
