Thomson Perforated Bricks (PB4007): Traditional Clay Perforated Bricks for Efficient & Durable Walling

Construct with confidence using Thomson Perforated Bricks (PB4007), a reliable perforated clay brick from Thomson Tiles – a respected Thrissur-based manufacturer known for energy-efficient, high-quality clay products. These classic 9x4.25x3 inch perforated bricks (with holes for faster drying and better firing) are made from carefully seasoned natural terracotta clay sourced from their own fields and fired to perfection.

The perforations reduce weight while maintaining excellent compressive strength, improve mortar bonding for stronger walls, enhance thermal insulation (trapping air for cooler interiors), and promote breathability to resist dampness and mold in Kerala's humid climate. Widely used in traditional and modern Kerala construction for partitions, infills, boundary walls, and low-cost housing, these bricks offer a sustainable, cost-effective alternative to solid bricks or concrete blocks.
