Bricks manufactured at the site have been used to construct prominent Canadian buildings such as the Bessborough Hotel in Saskatoon and the Chateau Frontenac in Quebec City.
Fire Brick: Claybank is home to deposits of a rare form of refractory clay that has exceptional heat resistant qualities.
So good was the fire brick produced at Claybank at insulating against extreme heat that it was used in the construction of the NASA rocket launch pads at Cape Canaveral, Florida.
Claybank itself is home to two main types of clay; white and grey in colour which possess different properties, valuable in producing bricks for various purposes.
The Bunkhouse Café and Gift Shop are located in the interpretive centre where fresh, homemade food and baking can be found, in addition to Saskatchewan souvenirs and local crafts.
In 2001, the Claybank Brick Plant and Historical Society bought the land from Saskatchewan Environment and Resource Management.
