WRS2312 Clay Split Wall Brick: 2013 Archive Guide refreshes the old page titled Chinese Clay Split Wall Brick Covering Tile. The archive recorded a slim full-body brick family with a 240 × 60 × 11 mm main format and corner pieces. Chinese, split and covering are 2013 title clues only; current product category, surface, seller, manufacturing source, application and suitability all need written verification.
Review the 2013 decorative brick entry
The archive included main and corner dimensions, approximately 4% water absorption and broad acid, heat, non-slip, wear and firebrick wording. It also contained applications, packing, 20-foot-container capacity, minimum order, sample timing and order lead-time fields. Every item is preserved as history rather than a current specification or quotation.

| Archived title wording | Chinese, split wall brick and covering tile; all require current confirmation |
The old page’s only body image remains for recognition. It is not a verified split-surface sample, a seller or origin record, proof of a current wall-covering application or evidence of present production.
Clarify the archived split-surface description
“Split” may have referred to a cleft, broken-face or textured appearance, but the old title does not define the manufacturing method, relief, repeat, edge character or sheen. The photograph alone cannot establish the surface offered today. Ask LOPO to identify the nearest current option in writing.
Review several labelled pieces in grazing and diffuse light because relief and shadow can change the reading substantially. Record product code, finish, sample date and role. If close-range texture matters, describe the desired depth and variation without turning the archive word into a production requirement.
Clarify Chinese and wall-covering wording
“Chinese” in the old title does not identify the present legal seller, manufacturer, factory or origin of a specific current brick. Ask who would supply the proposed product now, where that exact item is made and which entity issues samples, drawings, evidence and the quotation.
“Wall brick covering tile” also mixes several category and use terms without defining a complete wall proposal. Ask LOPO to name the current product category and intended application. Qualified project professionals should assess the exact product and building-specific wall rather than inferring suitability from the archive title.
Use archived formats only as design cues
The 240 × 60 mm face can inspire fine horizontal courses or vertical texture. The corner notations may trace former return pieces, yet they do not confirm current geometry, tolerance, colour matching, compatibility or supply. Request dated drawings for every proposed field and corner unit before updating elevations and quantities.
Qualified professionals must coordinate the building-specific substrate, movement, interfaces and wall proposal with current system information. This page offers no generic loads, spans, support spacing, anchors or installation instructions. If the current tile differs from the archive, revise design records, sample approvals and procurement information together.
Keep material and function claims historical
Archive boundary: WRS2312, Chinese, split, wall-covering and full-body wording, the main and corner dimensions, about 4% absorption, acid, heat, non-slip, wear and firebrick functions, uses, packing, 20-foot-container capacity, MOQ, sample timing and order lead time belong only to the 2013 page.
None of the old function terms establishes present performance, classification or project suitability. Heat-resistant or firebrick language is not a current fire conclusion. Ask for dated reports or declarations that identify the exact proposed product, specimen, method, result, scope and market. Let qualified project reviewers decide which criteria and approvals apply.
Reconfirm available sizes, surface, red range, corner units, quantity, packaging, minimum order, production window, delivery and payment in a current quotation. Keep samples, drawings, evidence and commercial records traceable to the same candidate so information from different tile families is not mixed.

Request a current WRS2312 split-brick review
Share the project country, wall area, elevation extracts, desired split texture and colour direction, field and corner requirements, approximate quantity and programme. Mention WRS2312 and the old formats as historical tracing references, not current specifications.
Email roger@lopoterracotta.com or use the contact form. Request the current seller, manufacturer and production source, exact product identification, representative samples, dated drawings, applicable evidence and project-specific terms.
Create a register for company role, product code, colour, split surface, dimensions, corners, sample role, drawing revision, evidence and commercial status. Separate appearance approval from product and complete-wall review. Use a successor identifier consistently if WRS2312 is unavailable.
Record light, viewing distance, adjacent materials and review date. Check that sample labels match current drawings, evidence and quotation. Leave missing fields open rather than borrowing them from 2013, and update elevations, quantities, approvals and commercial records whenever the candidate changes.
Review several current pieces together so split relief, colour and normal variation can be assessed at useful scale. Classify each as inspiration, representative range or proposed production benchmark, and keep the approved physical reference linked to the exact current product.
Record the legal seller, manufacturer, source, document issuer, date and scope separately. A company credential, generic function table and project photograph cannot substitute for product-specific information, and none proves the meaning of “Chinese” or “covering” for a live project.
