The Brick Industry Association (BIA) is the national trade association representing distributors and manufacturers of clay brick and suppliers of related products and services. Since its founding in 1934, the association has been the nationally recognized authority on clay brick construction.

BIA provides a broad range of programs and services that fulfill its mission of promoting and safeguarding the clay brick industry. BIA promotes the industry through education programs like online training classes; market research, including production, shipment, and other data; publications such as Technical Notes on Brick Construction, Brick in and Builder Notes; and promotional programs such as public relations, advertising, and a national architectural awards competition. BIA safeguards the industry through comprehensive advocacy and compliance efforts at the federal and state levels, representation in all model building code forums and national standards committees, and local advocacy programs that educate local planning and elected officials about clay brick.
