Clay Brick that’s warm and welcoming
The Shaw Brick Maritime Collection takes you back to the classic look of yesteryear. Somewhat reminiscent of our Olde English Brick Collection, the Maritime Collection offers a more refined look at a very good value.
The look and feel of the Maritime Collection is crisp and clean, but softened with more subtle blend variations than some of our other brick blends. On the wall, these clay bricks are welcoming, warm and inviting – like any true Maritimer.
The Maritime Collection is available in three designer blends: Acadian, Evangeline and Loyalist.
150 years of brick design and quality innovation
Manufactured right here in Atlantic Canada, Clay Brick from Shaw Brick has been a timeless staple of the construction industry for over 150 years. And, Shaw’s Clay Brick is just as desirable now as it was a century and a half ago thanks to our continuous innovations in product design and quality.
Drop into a Shaw Retail Centre or one of our independent dealers to see samples of these bricks and learn more about any product in the Shaw Masonry Collection.
