What Does FBA Mean?

FBA stands for Face Brick Aesthetic. It describes clay bricks selected or produced for durability and an aesthetic effect created by variations in size, shape or colour.

Commonly called semi-face bricks in South Africa, FBA products are chosen for their individual character. For Coega Black, the contrast between dark faces and warmer clay edges is an important part of the intended appearance.

A Charcoal Brick Finish with Warm Clay Detail

Coega Black works as a design option alongside timber, black window frames, concrete and neutral plastered surfaces. The colour variation can add interest to contemporary, industrial and rustic designs.

Mortar colour changes the overall effect. A lighter joint highlights the brick pattern, while a darker joint creates a more blended appearance.

Request current samples before ordering. For a large exposed wall, assess a sample panel showing the proposed brick, mortar colour and joint profile. Product photographs are a guide, and colour can vary between production batches.

Where Can Coega Black Semi-Face Bricks Be Used?

Consider Coega Black for house façades, boundary walls, entrances and interior feature walls where the product meets the project specification.

An exposed brick finish provides colour and texture without requiring plaster or paint. Confirm the selected brick’s strength and exposure suitability before specifying it for exterior masonry, particularly in coastal conditions.

How Many Coega Black Bricks Do I Need?

For initial planning, allow approximately 55 bricks per m² for one brick layer, before wastage.

This allowance is based on the approximate 220 × 70 mm wall-face dimensions and assumed 10 mm mortar joints. Final coverage depends on the actual brick dimensions, joint thickness and wall design.

For example, a wall measuring 10 metres long × 2 metres high, without openings, has an area of 20 m²:

  • Base quantity: 20 × 55 = 1,100 bricks.
  • Example 5% wastage allowance: 55 bricks.
  • Estimated order quantity: 1,155 bricks.

Use our brick calculator for an initial estimate. It already includes a 5% wastage allowance, so avoid adding that allowance twice.

Deduct relevant door and window openings and account separately for piers, returns and other details. Where different products are used for the inner and outer wall layers, calculate each brick type separately.
