1. Introduction
Karnataka Red Bricks are a cornerstone of construction across Mysore and Karnataka. In this article, I explain what kinds of red bricks we supply—from foundation to finish—and why choosing the right brick matters for structural integrity, aesthetics, and longevity.

2. What Are Karnataka Red Bricks?
Karnataka Red Bricks refer to locally manufactured clay bricks, fired to achieve hard, reddish appearance, widely used in residential, commercial, and civil construction. These bricks offer strength, thermal insulation, and a classic look.
3. Types of Red Bricks We Supply
H2: Traditional Solid Red Bricks
These are dense, load‑bearing bricks ideal for foundations, walls, beams, and pillars. Dimensions are standard (e.g. 230×110×75 mm), compressive strength > 100 kg/cm², water absorption < 15%.
Use: Load‑bearing walls, column filling.


H2: Hollow Red Bricks
With vertical perforations, they reduce weight and offer thermal insulation. Compressive strength around 75 kg/cm². Common sizes: 230×110×150 mm.
Use: Partition walls, infill panels.


H2: Water‑absorbent (Perforated) Bricks
Designed with cellular holes to enhance grip with mortar, improve bonding and reduce mortar use.
Use: Non‑load bearing infill and lining bricks.
H2: Special Purpose Bricks
- Bullnose bricks: Rounded edges for corners and aesthetics.
- Chamfered bricks: Sloped edges for drainage or shaping.
- Cut‑bricks: Custom sizes for arches or decorative work.
We stock all variations as part of our Karnataka Red Bricks portfolio.

6. How to Select the Right Bricks for Your Project
- For load‑bearing walls or foundation use solid bricks
- For lightweight partitioning, choose hollow or perforated bricks
- For moisture‑prone areas, prefer low water absorption bricks
- Always check compressive strength and uniformity; purchase from verified suppliers
7. Installation Tips and Best Practices
- Mortar mix ratio: typically 1:6 (cement: sand) for bricklaying
- Curing: bricks must be moist‑cured for 7–14 days after laying
- Bond patterns: English bond, Flemish bond, and stretcher bond recommended
- Weather protection: cover freshly laid walls overnight to prevent rain damage
8. Quality Control and Standards
Our Kansas bricks comply with IS 1077:1992 standards:
- Size tolerance ±3 mm
- Compressive strength ≥ 100 kg/cm²
