Kingscourt Country Manor Bricks is now Clay&Co

Since 1979, Kingscourt Country Manor Bricks has been Ireland’s leading brickyard. In that time, our bricks have shaped the streetscapes and avenues of our cities, towns and neighbourhoods. We are proud of our sustainable origins and the beauty of the material that has built our story. Our new name celebrates the legacy of our past and honours our bold vision for the future.

Today, as we look towards the next fifty years, we recognise the many challenges facing not just our industry but also the planet and the unprecedented demand for change. While clay brick remains one of the world’s most sustainable products, every other aspect of our business is seeing continued progressive improvements.

All of this means smoother logistics, lower carbon footprints, broader range, shorter response times, innovative search and reference tools.

Our new name celebrates, not just our origins and legacy, but perhaps more importantly, defines our bold new vision and our continued commitment to the beauty of clay brick and the continued possibilities it inspires.

Our mission is to inspire and empower architects and developers everywhere to build a more beautiful world.

It is a legacy we all share – to stand the test of time, to age with grace, beauty and purpose.

We stand as a distinguished leader in the clay brick industry, representing a carefully curated portfolio of Europe’s finest brick manufacturers. As a true ‘house of brands’, we offer architects, builders and developers access to Ireland’s most diverse and premium selection of brick types, styles and finishes. Ultimately our portfolio provides the freedom of choice, consistency of quality and continuity of supply.

For over 40 years, we’ve built trust through quality, reliability and possibility.

Our portfolio of clay brick types is unparalleled — a living library of colours,

textures, and forms that give architects, builders, and visionaries the freedom to create without compromise. Whether it’s standard stock, specialty cutting, or bespoke moulding, we make it possible.

We pair decades of knowledge with modern innovation, from intuitive search

tools to hands-on guidance, ensuring you always find the right solution, fast.

We know time is the builder’s most precious resource. That’s why we pride

ourselves on shorter response times, precision logistics, and stress-free delivery. With us, your project flows seamlessly from idea to completion.

We look forward to working with our valued suppliers and customers, now as Clay&Co.

Yours Sincerely,

The Clay&Co Team (Formerly KCMB)
