FH303076 is a 2013 LOPO catalogue reference whose surviving fields do not agree. The original title says 30mm Red Terracotta Panel With Sand Surface, while the archived colour field says brown. The record also lists 300 × 600 × 30 mm. This update preserves both colour statements without deciding which was intended. It likewise does not assume that a current product has a sand surface. Present product identity, colour, finish, dimensions and evidence require written verification.
FH303076 archive snapshot and conflict
The item code and nominal size are consistent within the supplied archive data, but colour is not. “Red” appears in the headline; “brown” appears in the colour field. “Sand surface” comes from the title and lacks a current sample or surface description. The page also contained old environmental, performance, weight, delivery, certification and generic-table claims.
| Item | FH303076 |
|---|---|
| Archived title colour | Red |
| Archived colour field | Brown |
| Archived title surface | Sand surface |
| Archived size | 300 × 600 × 30 mm |
| Status | Legacy reference with unresolved colour conflict; current colour and surface unverified |
This is the page’s only original body image. It is generic and does not resolve whether FH303076 was red or brown, show a verified sand texture, or represent current production.
Do not choose between red and brown
Colour words can overlap in fired clay: some red tones lean brown and some browns contain red undertones. That possibility does not repair the record. Without a labelled historic sample or authoritative source, selecting one field would be an inference rather than a faithful archive update.
Use “red/brown archive conflict” in research notes and enquiries. Ask LOPO to confirm whether the code can be traced and whether any current sample corresponds to it. A present candidate should receive its own unambiguous colour name, finish code and physical benchmark instead of inheriting either disputed label automatically.
Treat “sand surface” as unverified title wording
The old title may refer to a granular visual effect, a fine texture, a marketing name or another former treatment. The archive supplied here does not define grain size, relief, sheen, manufacturing method, cleanability or current availability. None should be invented from the phrase.
Describe the desired tactile and visual result independently: fine or pronounced relief, matte or reflective character, uniformity, shadow and relationship to adjoining materials. Ask for current, labelled surface samples. Review them at useful scale and under representative light before naming an approved texture in the project record.
Use the 300 × 600 × 30 mm field cautiously
The archived two-to-one module can inform early studies of horizontal coursing or a vertical alternative. Joint rhythm, openings, corners and transitions affect the result. Mark the size as a legacy reference until a dated drawing confirms a present option, tolerances and product identity.
The recorded 30 mm dimension does not prove weight, strength, span, attachment compatibility or complete facade performance. Qualified project professionals must coordinate the building-specific wall using current information, without deriving generic loads, support spacing, anchorage or installation instructions from this conflicting catalogue entry.
Replace all legacy claims with current evidence
The 2013 page’s environmental assertions, composition language, performance results, weight, delivery timing, certification references and generic table may relate to a former specimen, family or market. They cannot resolve the colour conflict and should not be transferred to FH303076, a substitute or a complete facade assembly.
Request a current material description, nominal dimensions, tolerances, identified colour and surface, edge expectations and intended application. Ask for dated declarations, reports and certificates that clearly cover the exact candidate and destination. Confirm samples, quantity, packaging, programme and delivery in a current quotation.
Archive boundary: FH303076 and 300 × 600 × 30 mm are historic identifiers. Red, brown and sand surface are preserved as conflicting or unverified 2013 wording. Only a current identified offer, approved sample, dated drawing and applicable evidence can define a live selection.

Project photographs can support design research, but they cannot identify the disputed archive item or make another project’s product evidence transferable.
Request a current FH303076 clarification
Share the archive URL, project location, facade area, elevations, desired colour family, texture reference, adjacent materials, approximate quantity and programme. Mention FH303076, both archived colour labels and the sand-surface wording so LOPO can investigate without being prompted toward one answer.
Email roger@lopoterracotta.com or contact LOPO Terracotta. Ask for written product identification, current colour and surface samples, dated drawings, applicable documents and a quotation for any exact contemporary option proposed.
Keep the historical code separate from a new product code. Label each current sample with its colour, finish, date and review status, and record whether it is an inspiration piece, range sample or proposed production benchmark. Do not relabel the archive until reliable evidence resolves it.
Maintain a short conflict log during the enquiry. Record the source of each statement, the date received, who issued it and whether it identifies a physical sample. A current verbal description or an unlabelled photograph should not silently overwrite the archived title or colour field.
If LOPO locates historical documentation, preserve the distinction between evidence that explains the 2013 record and evidence that supports a product offered today. Resolution of the old discrepancy would not make old performance or certification data current.
If no current connection can be verified, retain FH303076 solely as a design-history reference. Develop the live selection from a clearly identified present product, and update elevations, schedules and quantities together. This preserves the record honestly while giving the project a traceable basis for decisions.
