Designer Block Pre-sealing Technology Designer Block products utilise the latest pre-sealing technology
to reduce water absorption, and hence reduce the possibility of
efflorescence, mould or mildew staining.
Designer Block products are suitable for loadbearing and
non-loadbearing walls.
Designer Block Contemporary Coloursfor External and Internal Walls
The colour palette has been developed in consultation with
designers and offers a broad and co-ordinated range.
The Designer Block colour palette provides the flexibility of many
colour combinations essential for the popular composite building
styles that require varying finishes and materials.
Choose from a palette of contemporary colours and bold textures
or customise to create an individual look. (Please note longer lead
times and surcharges may apply for this service).

Almond − Shot-Blast Face Alabaster − Split Face
Charcoal − Polished Face
Smooth FaceA finely textured finish created through the standard moulding process.
Shot-Blast FaceThis process subtly exposes the aggregates, producing a finish like
weathered ground stone.
Honed FaceThe honing process grinds 2-3mm from the block surface,
producing a matt exposed-aggregate finish, like sawn stone.
Polished FaceThis involves producing a denser block which is honed and then
buffed. Polishing enriches the colour of the aggregates. The finely
finished polished surface is ideal for feature walls, trim and banding.
Split FaceThe splitting process produces a bold textured, exposed aggregate finish.
Block EndsHoned, Shot-Blast or Polished finishes are available on the end of
blocks for corners, openings and free ends.

thicknesses, Series 100 (95mm thickness), Series

DESIGN NOTES One in three 10.101 blocks delivered will be half
solid to enable on-site bolstering to create split face
textures at sides of openings and corners where
required. Splitting details are on pages 7 to 10.
When designing with split face blocks, special
consideration should be given to the distances
between openings and between corners and
openings to facilitate the bolstering of block ends
where required.
