Thomson Perforated Bricks (PBR4009): Classic Clay Perforated Bricks for Efficient & Durable Masonry

Construct efficiently with Thomson Perforated Bricks (PBR4009), a reliable perforated clay brick from Thomson Tiles – a respected Thrissur-based manufacturer known for energy-efficient, high-quality clay products. These compact 8x5.75x3 inch perforated bricks are made from carefully seasoned natural terracotta clay sourced from their own fields and fired to perfection.

The perforations (multiple holes) reduce weight while enhancing mortar grip for stronger walls, improve thermal insulation (air pockets trap heat/cold), and promote breathability to resist dampness and mold in Kerala's humid climate. With efficient coverage (typically 500-550 bricks per 100 sq ft for 9-inch wall thickness, adjusted for the slightly wider 5.75" dimension), they are widely used in traditional and modern Kerala construction for partitions, infills, boundary walls, and affordable housing.
