J&J Materials carries a beautiful line of Hard Fired Clay Products from Marion Ceramics.
BrickTile – Thin Brick Paver Tile
The Marion Ceramics BrickTile line offers an appealing and superior alternative to quarry tile, brick pavers or concrete pavers. We use the finest clays, shale and raw materials which are fine ground to produce our smooth wirecut texture. Our texture is the perfect balance between ease of clean up smooth yet optimum in slip resistance even when wet. With our BrickTile you can avoid the danger of slippery quarry tile as well as the rough characteristics of traditional brick pavers.
Our BrickTile are extruded under high vacuum and hard fired to produce our high quality dense products. Our process results in our products having excellent physical characteristics especially when compared to concrete pavers. Of course, to designers and owners the aesthetics possible with our classic brick shape and beautiful colors is just as important as the technical excellence of our products.

Sizes
Marion's BrickTile products are available in the modular brick shape (3 5/8" x 7 5/8") in either ½" or 15/16" thicknesses. This allows for BrickTile to be used anywhere ceramic tile is considered as well as installations which will have vehicular traffic where 15/16" materials set on slab provides an attractive and functional design opportunity.

Colors
Marion's BrickTile Classics colors have been developed over many years to fill the needs of architects and designers. Care is taken to produce a wide range of attractive pleasing colors to provide unmatched and unlimited design possibilities.
We start with traditional brick colors including two reds – our Plantation Red (200) which is exceptionally vivid and clear along with Havana Red (250) having reddish brown tones which is a popular match to many residential face brick.
Overall, an exceptional range of colors to mix or match on any project – residential or commercial. These colors have proven to be especially attractive when used in combination whether as blends or borders to provide any look desired.
Marion's BrickTile products are available in a broad spectrum of fourteen beautiful colors all of which are compatible for color coordinating and/or contrasting design statements. Our palette of colors includes eight clear tones and one ironspot which make up our BrickTile Classics colors. The balance of five colors make up our BrickTile Rustics colors all of which are naturally flashed using reduction firing techniques perfected over many years. You never have to worry your job will have the artificial look you get with chemical flashes used for quarry tile. Also, you can rest assured the hard fired colors of our BrickTile are color fast and will not fade with exposure to sunlight and weather which occurs with all pigmented concrete pavers. But perhaps more importantly, you can bank on Marion Ceramics to take the extra care required to properly formulate each body and to double mix during grinding in order to maintain our color consistency. Finally, designers will be pleased to know Marion offers factory blending which means there is endless opportunity to have any color blend imaginable available for their special jobs.
