Used Textures

Appearing to be recycled from a building long exposed to the elements, Stone Mountain Brick Co. introduces four new veneer styles for its brick and stone. "Used textures" have a slightly worn face with a few random indentations in each brick surface. In sharp contrast, the fresh-looking wirecut style has blunt, uneven grooves that stretch vertically across the surface of each piece.

Appearing to be recycled from a building long exposed to the elements, Stone Mountain Brick Co. introduces four new veneer styles for its brick and stone. "Used textures" have a slightly worn face with a few random indentations in each brick surface.

In sharp contrast, the fresh-looking wirecut style has blunt, uneven grooves that stretch vertically across the surface of each piece. The new brick veneers are a perfect complement to the smooth and antique textures already in production.

All four colorfast veneers are immediately available in 11 standard color options. However, if the standard hues, ranging from rosy Humboldt to golden Selkirk, don't fulfill your building needs, Stone Mountain Brick also offers custom color capabilities.

At only half an inch or 1.27 cm. thick, and weighing two pounds 12 oz. or 1.24 kg. per sq. ft. of wall, these veneers can be added to large or small, interior or exterior, commercial or residential, or new building or remodeling projects, and do not require additional footing, wall ties or foundations. Brick veneers are available in both flat and corner pieces for ease of installation and come with a 30-year limited warranty.
