WR634 Exterior Wall Terracotta Brick: 2013 Archive Guide refreshes the old page titled LOPO China Terracotta Bricks for Exterior Wall Decoration. The archive listed a slim full-body brick family and associated it with LOPO China and exterior use. Those phrases help trace the 2013 record, but they do not establish the current manufacturer, production source, product identity or suitability for a live exterior wall.
Read the archived supplier and tile record
The listing recorded a 240 × 60 × 11 mm main tile, two corner notations, approximately 4% water absorption and several generic functions. It also carried usage, packing, 20-foot-container capacity, minimum order, sample timing and order lead-time fields. These details may help trace an old enquiry but do not define a present supplier or product offer.
| Archive reference | WR634 |

| Title status | LOPO China and exterior-wall-decoration wording are unverified 2013 context |
The page’s only original body image remains for recognition. It is not a current product sample, production-source record or evidence of exterior-wall suitability.
Clarify the LOPO China identity wording
“LOPO China” appeared in the former title, but a historic brand and location phrase does not identify the present legal seller, manufacturer, factory or origin of a specific product. Ask who would supply WR634 or a contemporary alternative now, where that item is made and which entity issues drawings, evidence and the quotation.
Keep seller, manufacturer, product code and production source distinct when they differ. Any company credentials, certifications, capacity or continuity statements associated with 2013 need current documentation. A traceable response is more useful than assuming the archived identity still describes today’s offer.
Verify exterior-wall use for the project
“Exterior wall decoration” is broad application wording, not a current suitability conclusion. It does not define climate, exposure, wall design, substrate, regulatory pathway, maintenance context or evidence for the complete proposal. The archive image can support appearance research only.
State the project country, building use and exterior conditions in the enquiry. Request current product documentation relevant to that scope, then let qualified professionals assess the exact brick and building-specific wall. Do not transfer a use statement from WR634 to another product or assembly.
Use the old tile details cautiously
The main and corner formats may help trace the former family, but they do not confirm current dimensions, tolerances, edge shape, colour, compatibility or availability. Request dated drawings and labelled samples for the exact proposed field and corner pieces. “Full-body” and about 4% absorption are archive fields, not current material or performance declarations.
Qualified professionals must coordinate the actual substrate, movement, interfaces and wall proposal with current information. This archive provides no generic loads, spans, support spacing, anchors or installation instructions. If a successor tile differs from the old listing, update elevations, quantities, sample records and procurement documents consistently.
Apply a strict historical boundary
Archive boundary: WR634, LOPO China, exterior-wall-decoration and full-body wording, the main and corner dimensions, about 4% absorption, acid, heat, non-slip, wear and firebrick functions, applications, packing, 20-foot-container capacity, MOQ, sample timing and order lead time belong only to 2013.
Old heat or firebrick terms do not establish present fire performance. Request dated evidence that identifies the exact product, specimen, method, result, scope and market. Let qualified project reviewers decide which requirements and approvals apply, keeping product-level documents separate from assessment of the complete wall proposal.
Reconfirm current colours, surfaces, sizes, corner pieces, quantity, packaging, minimum order, production window, sample status, delivery and payment in a written quotation. Link every sample, drawing, report and commercial response to the same present product and source.
Explore current tile and project resources
Review LOPO’s current terracotta tile overview for present product discussions.
Browse terracotta projects for module and facade ideas.
Visit the architectural terracotta gallery to compare tile, brick and panel applications.
Use the LOPO contact page for current company and product information.
Project references can support visual research, but they do not prove current product identity, manufacturing source, exterior suitability or transferable approvals.
Request a current WR634 brick proposal
Share the project country, exterior wall area, elevation extracts, desired colour and surface, field and corner requirements, approximate quantity and programme. Cite WR634 and the archived sizes for tracing while asking LOPO to identify the present seller, manufacturer, source and exact product.
Email roger@lopoterracotta.com or use the contact form. Request representative samples, dated drawings, applicable evidence, company details and a project-specific quotation.
Maintain a register of company role, production source, product code, colour, surface, samples, drawings, evidence and commercial status. Separate visual approval from technical review of the exterior wall. Confirm that all current documents and the physical material identify the same candidate.
Create a current comparison sheet for each candidate. Record legal seller, manufacturer, production source, product and sample codes, main and corner formats, drawing revision, evidence date, scope, packaging, minimum order and programme. Leave gaps open instead of borrowing WR634 fields, and keep company, product, technical and commercial decisions separately traceable.
Ask each respondent to explain which documents describe the brick itself and which concern the wider wall proposal. This distinction prevents a company credential, generic table or project reference from being mistaken for product-specific evidence.
Before selection, record unresolved questions about product identity, source, application evidence, capacity basis and programme. If the proposed brick or supplier changes, update elevations, quantities, approvals and commercial comparisons together. Keep WR634 as a 2013 archive lead until a current written offer replaces every field relevant to the project.
