Starbucks has been following an expansion programme across the UK creating a number of new drive-through restaurants. Brick cladding specialists Eurobrick Systems have been supplying contractors, including Trojan Construction Management with their systems and products as part of an overall mixed palette of finishes on a number of projects.
In 2019, Eurobrick provided its cladding materials to Trojan for two new drive-throughs, one at Hadley in Telford and another at Weston-super-Mare. Eurobrick’s popular X-Clad system was used to create decorative feature walling that could be seen both inside and outside of the new stores.
At the Weston-super-Mare store Eurobrick supplied 77m² of their 17mm thick X-Clad system, along with Smooth White brick slips and corners from their Britannia Premium Selection range. Eurobrick’s specially formulated pointing mortar was chosen in white to finish the brickwork. The overall effect of the white bricks and mortar was an eye-catching contrast to the dark coloured panels used on the exterior walls.
At the Hadley store in Telford, Eurobrick supplied 43m² of their 17mm thick X-Clad along with specially sourced Vandersanden Livrono and Vandersanden Zwart Mangaan slips and corners which were finished with standard grey Europoint mortar. Eurobrick has a wide selection of brick and stone slip finishes available but they are also able to specially source a wide range of brick types and colours to suit any project.
