ALL QUIK-BRIK PRODUCTS DELIVER THESE IMPORTANT BENEFITS:

• One-Step Installation: Quik-Brik can be installed faster than a traditional brick veneer.
• Moisture-Resistance for Better Indoor Air Quality: Quick-Brik includes a water repellant admixture — keeping indoor walls dry and reducing the potential for mold growth.
• Sound Absorption: Units typically have an STC (Sound Transmission Class) of 45-48, depending on unit dimensions and manufacturing location.
• Fire Performance: Quik-Brik units typically achieve two- to three-hour fire ratings, depending on the unit dimensions and manufacturing location.
• Energy Efficiency: Hollow core construction allows for the application of loose-fill or foamed-in insulation to increase wall R-Values, creating energy efficient walls that meet Model Energy Codes. Quick-Brik can also be paired with the complete EnduraMax High Performance Wall System for greater energy efficiency.
• Lasting Beauty: All units are manufactured using high-quality metallic oxide pigments to resist fading from ultraviolet light and attack by acidic substances.
• Above and Beyond Code: Quik-Brik meets and surpasses many of today’s more stringent building code requirements, including the ASTM C-90 code for compressive strength and absorption.
• No Hassles, No Delays: Quik-Brik offers next-day shipment if the color you’ve selected is in inventory.
