Statesville Brick Company

What Statesville Brick Company does

Statesville Brick Company is a family-owned and operated brick manufacturer established in 1891 and headquartered at 391 Brickyard Road in Statesville, North Carolina. The company produces approximately 75 million fine quality face bricks per year across four branded woodfired series — Authentic Tumbled, Straight Edge, Scratch & Textured, and Simulated Tumbled — plus a custom-order brick line, a thin brick product, and specialty brick shapes. Its manufacturing is anchored on a wood-fired kiln system, described by the company as one of the finest in the United States, which it markets as both a cost-efficient alternative to natural gas, oil, propane, or coal and as the source of color enhancement reminiscent of early American and Colonial-era brick. In 2005 the company added what it characterizes as the newest and most modern tumbled plant in the U.S., and it continues to manufacture older-style scratch and smooth brick for additions to older homes.

The company serves three primary use cases: residential construction (including additions and renovations of older homes), commercial construction, and historical preservation. Its commercial model is a hybrid: customers inside North Carolina are handled through an in-house direct sales staff at the corporate office, while customers outside the home state are served through a distribution network of 170 distributors spanning 35 U.S. states plus Canada. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and transactions are contact-based (phone, in-person, or distributor inquiry). The company highlights name-brand institutional references including Davidson College, the University of North Carolina, Princeton University, Ohio State, Clemson, Michigan State, the Governor's Mansion in Raleigh, and Norfolk Naval Base, illustrating traction in education, government, and selective commercial/retail (e.g., Rogue Fitness) accounts. There is no public funding, no parent company, and no disclosed revenue or headcount trend; it operates as a privately held, multi-generational family business with documented active hiring across manufacturing roles.
