Whether you’re working on a new build or refurbishment, Corium is a tried and tested brick slip cladding system with components that are “class A1 as defined by the National Building Regulations”.
If installed, used and maintained in accordance with the stipulations set out in the BBA certificate, Corium “can satisfy or contribute to satisfying the relevant requirements in the relation to NHBC Standards, Part 6 Superstructure (excluding roofs), Chapter 6.9 Curtain walling and cladding.
Delivering high standards is a commitment shared both by manufacturer Wienerberger and Taylor Maxwell, the exclusive UK distributor. We have partnered together for over two decades to supply Corium brick cladding to the UK construction market.

Fixing and Installation
Corium is a system designed for adaptability and performance. The system is composed of fired clay extruded brick tiles which are clipped into longitudinally interlocking steel backing sections. The vertical and horizontal joints between the tiles are pointed with Parex (Sika) Historic Mortar KL.
The steel backing sections are profiled to suit the brickwork coursing height, mounted horizontally or vertically and then mechanically fixed to the supporting subframe. The brick slips are then clipped into place ensuring that consistent horizontal joints are achieved, whilst vertical joint spacing can be adjusted to suit design requirements. Once tiles are installed, mortar is applied using a pump system developed specifically to suit the characteristics of the brick cladding system.
