A brick facade is a timeless classic that always looks solid and relevant. However, traditional brick masonry is heavy, expensive, and requires complex structural solutions. The BRICK and BRMIX flexible tile collections by KORDEKO allow you to achieve the look of real brick without wet masonry works, foundation reinforcement, or overloading an insulated facade.
Why Traditional Brick Masonry Is Not Always the Best Solution
When applied to an insulated facade, traditional brickwork creates several issues:
significant weight and structural load
need for ventilation gaps and support systems
complex and costly installation
risk of thermal bridges
high overall project cost
That is why more and more architects and developers choose a brick-look facade without masonry, using flexible brick tiles instead.
What Are BRICK and BRMIX Flexible Tile Collections
The BRICK and BRMIX collections are flexible facade tiles with a realistic brick texture, produced using PletaFlex technology.
Key features:
visually indistinguishable from real brick
lightweight and flexible
suitable for insulated facades
installed directly onto reinforced insulation
The BRMIX collection features mixed shades, creating the effect of natural, aged brickwork.
An Ideal Solution for Insulated Facades
Brick-style flexible tiles are installed using a standard “wet facade” system:
Load-bearing wall
Adhesive
Insulation (EPS or mineral wool)
Reinforced layer with mesh
Primer
BRICK or BRMIX flexible tiles
❗ Important: no ventilated facade, metal substructures, or foundation reinforcement is required.
Advantages of a Brick-Style Facade Made of Flexible Tiles
✔ Minimal Weight
Does not overload walls or insulation.
✔ Fast Installation
Installation is several times faster than traditional brickwork.
✔ Perfect for Insulated Systems
Preserves the continuous thermal envelope of the building.
✔ Realistic Appearance
Brick texture, color, and format look natural and authentic.
✔ Flexibility
Ideal for curves, bay windows, columns, and complex architectural shapes.
✔ Frost and Moisture Resistance
Withstands temperature changes without cracking or delamination.
