The brick siding are a good choice for ease of installation and are very lightweight. Whatever look you need there is a panel style and color, for you. Looking for an old school house look, or perhaps a red, several shades of red are available, along with yellow, brown and tan. Panels are made from a variety of plastic combination and are good for interior and exterior applications.

The panels vary from thickness of 1/8 inch, which are flexible to 1 inch and tend to be more rigid. Depending on the manufacturer, the panels are either cemented into place or screwed. Sometimes both attachment methods are recommended. These panels tend to be lightweight, weatherproof, UV stable, and resistant to insects. There are also corner pieces, trim and even columns to match each panel style. All of these are great choices for exterior applications.

There are also thin types of bricks made from several different materials. One is vermiculite and another is from quartz sand and other natural materials. The composition makes the bricks light weight and provide a natural looking texture. Mortar is used for installation for this style and a similar process is used as with bricks made from clay. However, these bricks are much lighter in weight, and can be used where a conventional brick application may be prohibitive.

One company makes a plastic brick panel that is white or clear. These panels are not colored and are designed for the purchaser to paint in whatever color they choose. With this type, you can use your creativity and make a wall look exactly the way you want it.

Recycled paper and cardboard is another choice, lightweight and less expensive. These panels come ready to install and paint. Just add paint and creativity. A great choice for stage sets. Panels can be treated to make them water resistant for a longer life.

Full size bricks are manufactured from a very wide variety of recycled materials. Some of the materials come from manufacturing waste, recycled plastics and waste ceramics. Great for the environment, these are sturdy and lightweight. A good choice where full size bricks are needed.
