Autoclaved Aerated Concrete

AAC homeTechnically, Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (AAC) systems consist of blocks held together by mortar. But that's where the similarity to conventional mortared block construction ends. AAC uses new, technologically advanced concrete and mortar to give builders and buyers a new range of advantages.

You can build a home with aerated concrete in any style.

AAC is made with all fine aggregates, nothing more coarse than a grain of sand, cement and a natural expansion agent that causes the concrete to rise like bread dough, with countless small air pockets. In fact, this concrete is 80% air.

Application of finish directly to AAC
Finishes are applied directly onto the surface of autoclaved aerated
concrete block.


The factory can mold it and cut it into precisely dimensioned units. While block-size is most common, it can also be cast into reinforced panels for walls, floors and roofs.
