Bloque Briñas - Smooth facing block for fences and enclosures
Bloque Briñas: the fence that needs no rendering
A grey block enclosure calls for rendering, paint and repainting. Bloque Briñas is a smooth water-repellent concrete facing block, colored throughout: the wall is finished as it goes up, on both sides, and the color never needs repainting. Six block formats and four half-block formats, in up to six colors.
✅ Main advantages
Fair-faced on both sides: a finished fence with no rendering or painting.
Water-repellent and colored throughout: the color belongs to the unit, it is not a coating.
Six formats: widths of 12, 15 and 20 cm in wall block and partition block, with matching half blocks to lay without cutting.
Up to six colors: Arena, Blanco Macael, Blanco Tasca, Crema, Gris and Salmón (depending on format).
Complete system: pairs with its matching corners, bond beam blocks, sills and facing slips (sold separately).

🧰 Installation
Start on a level footing or slab.
Build up in courses with staggered joints using mortar, keeping the joints clean: the fair face is not covered up.
Reinforce and fill solid where the design calculations require, using the matching bond beam blocks.
Cap the fence with sills or coping.
💡 Professional tip: on a fair-faced wall the mortar is part of the finish: always use the same mortar and point the joints at the same curing time so that all the joints have the same tone.
