The changing face of cities due to the bright individuality of modern buildings poses new and interesting challenges for manufacturers of building materials. The combination of new textures, colors and sizes of bricks allows you to solve them, embodying the most daring architectural ideas in ceramics. This approach is used by the Kirovo-Chepetskiy Brick Factory, its trade marks are recognizable not only in their native region, but also in other cities of our large country. Fresh ideas and painstaking daily work create unique types of ceramic bricks.
Traditions of Old Europe - Brand Königstein, Marksburg Series, Mannheim, Erfurt
Marksburg, Mannheim, Erfurt The names of European historical centers famous for their monumental buildings: located on a hilltop in the upper Rhine, the real knight's castle Marksburg, the magnificent Mannheim Palace and the Cathedral of the Erfurt Bishopric dedicated to the Virgin Mary are embodied in new types of ceramic bricks under the Königstein trademark.
Red, immortalized with patina, Marksburg bricks, brown and tan Mannheim and ennobled by time gray Erfurt make it possible to recreate the appearance of these majestic buildings on Russian soil. The corrugated surface of the bricks decorated with colored sand gives the facade a three-dimensional effect, breaking the usual strict lines of brick walls. The wide range of shades of crisp white and classic reddish brown allows for the creation of modern architectural projects that are unlike each other. The use of various combinations of engobe and sand expands this collection by introducing new color solutions.

Traditions of the Roman Empire and Byzantium - plinth - embodied in TM ModFormat
Brickwork is familiar to the eye with its proportional geometry. The façade, built of long bricks, attracts special attention, since it does not fit into a set of stable stereotypes. The ceramic plinth widespread in the Roman Empire, Byzantium, and Kievan Rus had a similar look. Modern material allows architects to harmoniously and expressively connect different eras and cultures in their work, to show something, either long forgotten, or materialized from fantasy, which are outside the visible spectrum.
The narrow and long format of bricks appeared in the Kirovo-Chepetskiy brick factory. Its length is 290 mm with a thickness of only 40 mm, as it were, visually stretches the brick, thereby allowing to give the facade of the building a unique shape. The decorative function of a long brick is not limited to its shape. There is a wide selection of color solutions: from light gray and beige to deep brown, the assortment also includes the traditional range of red shades, which begin to play with new colors in the unusual pattern of the masonry.
