Supporting critical healthcare infrastructure with durable brick solutions

Ibstock’s Bradgate Light Buff bricks were selected for the £49.9 million Princess Royal Bristol Surgical Centre at Southmead Hospital – a major new facility designed to increase surgical capacity across the region.

Delivered in partnership with Brickhunter, the project saw the supply of over 110,000 facing bricks, complemented by 30,000 fill and reface specials and 30 Bee Habitat Bricks to support biodiversity requirements.

The new surgical centre provides dedicated space for planned procedures, including four operating theatres and a 40-bed inpatient ward, helping to expand access to treatment and improve patient outcomes.

Bradgate Light Buff was chosen for its consistent appearance and ability to contribute to a façade suited to a modern healthcare environment. Working closely with distribution partner Brickhunter ensured reliable supply and the inclusion of specialist components to meet the project’s design and technical requirements.

This was a fantastic project to be involved in, supporting the delivery of a modern healthcare facility that will make a real difference to patients. The Bradgate Light Buff brick provided a consistent, high-quality finish, and the inclusion of specialist elements such as reface specials and bee bricks ensured both the aesthetic and functional requirements were fully met.” Chris Hardman, Distribution Director, Brickhunter.

This project highlights Ibstock’s capability to support large-scale healthcare developments, delivering robust, aesthetically appropriate brick solutions for buildings where performance, longevity and visual quality are essential.
