How Are Clay Pavers Made?

The clay pavers and brick pavers available to order from Arbour Landscape Solutions are made in Europe using a traditional specification and a modern twist on traditional firing methods.

Natural clay is dredged from river beds. These clay deposits are the result of minerals being carried downstream from their origins in higher ground. The mineral composition is what determines the hue and tone of the final product, which is why clay pavers are great at retaining their colour.

When it arrives at the production plant, the clay is treated to remove unwanted materials before being thoroughly mixed with sand and water and churned to a smooth consistency.

Moulds are used to form the clay mix into precisely shaped blocks. These blocks are then left to dry for 3-4 days to remove excess water.  The suitably dried blocks are fired in a kiln 1200 degrees celcius to create a robust, durable and tough product with innumerable uses.

How Many Clay Pavers To Buy 

Clay pavers come in different sizes so be sure to check the product description before placing your order. Most of the pavers in the Arbour Landscape Solutions range measure 200mm long by 50mm wide and 65mm deep when laid on edge. Lay them “flat” and they’re still 200mm long but now they are 65mm wide and 50mm deep.

  • yes Laid on edge, and butt-jointed you need approximately 100 pavers per square metre.
  • yes Butt-jointed and laid “flat” you will need 77 per square metre.

 

Can Clay Pavers Be Reclaimed And Reused?

In a word, yes. Clay pavers can be reused to create new outdoor features, or, they may be crushed to create valuable aggregates. Which means that when it comes to earning sustainability points, these beauties are way up there along with natural stone features.

When you are laying your driveway or creating paths with clay pavers, you’re probably not thinking decades ahead. But the truth of the matter is, the way we design and use our outdoor spaces is continually changing. The next occupant of your home may decide to reduce the size of hard standings in favour of more soft landscaping. Or a house extension may mean that your patio disappears beneath indoor living space. When you use clay pavers, they can be lifted and either reused or recycled.

Clay pavers and natural stone are both incredibly beautiful but each type of material has its pros and cons. In heavily trafficked areas, clay pavers are more durable than softer natural stones such as sandstone or limestone, however for domestic patios and paths, this difference is barely relevant. There may be some price savings when using clay pavers as opposed to natural stone, but please take installation costs into account when making your comparison.

No, good quality clay pavers will retain their colour regardless of exposure to UV light, rainfall and usage.

The brick pavers sold by Arbour Landscape Solutions are entirely made from river clay, which is a renewable resource. A certain amount of energy is used in the firing process and they do of course require transporting to their ultimate home. However, because these materials are durable, last for decades, and can be re-used and recycled, we think they are as environmentally sustainable as any of the landscaping materials available in the UK today.

Installation techniques vary according to conditions on site and how the finished surface will be used. A driveway for example needs a more robust sub-base than a domestic patio. You can find comprehensive guides to installing clay and brick pavers on the Paving Site website. An independently managed free-to-view resource for anybody involved with specifying, building or maintaining areas of hard landscaping. https://paving.site

One of the joys of specifying clay pavers is that you have a diverse range of laying patterns to choose from. Remember too that it's perfectly possible to mix and match colours in order to create striking features. Frequently used laying patterns include a running bond, stack bond, stretcher bond, herringbone pattern, basket weave and even circular and curved shapes.

Absolutely they are! Properly installed clay pavers are so durable that caring for them is a doddle. In most cases, all they will need is regular sweeping with a stiff broom to remove loose debris and discourage moss and weeds. For heavy soiling, a quick wash with diluted eco-friendly detergent is enough to bring back their lustre. Take care when using a pressure washer on a brick paver surface as the jet may loosen jointing materials, however any accidents are normally fairly easy to rectify provided the installation technique was correct.
