RTU has been supplying mortar to the Northern Ireland construction industry for over 20 years, introducing the concept of tubbed mortar in 1993. This factory produced, ready to use mortar was the first of its kind in Northern Ireland. It is still part of the product portfolio today and RTU is still the largest manufacturer of tubbed mortar in Northern Ireland.

Approximately 20% of the surface area of a brick wall is made up of the mortar joints that hold the brick together. The introduction of a coloured mortar can have a stunning impact on the final exterior appearance of your project. RTU currently offers over 50 shades of coloured mortar to meet the ever-increasing assortment of brick and block designs available on the market. Sample kits can be provided to aid colour selection.
