A number of other brick companies are currently looking to develop and
produce rubbing bricks.
W.H. Collier Ltd, Essex
This is an independent company based near Colchester (Essex). They currently
produce up to 750,000 handmade bricks per annum (2007). A small batch
kiln has been installed, thus enabling them to fire rubbers and cutters for the
East Anglian market and beyond. In this respect it is proposed to re-introduce
the traditional Collier 'Primrose'. Trials are on-going and the range should be
established by end of 2008.
