AAC BLOCKS ECO-ENVIRONMENT FRIENDLY
skandiplader AAC blocks are among the most Eco and Environmentally friendly building products, which are designed to minimize waste and maximize energy efficiency by using waste materials of Power plants with zero wastage helps to reduce Carbon footprints.
It saves depletion of the fertile top-soil and usage of fly-ash an industrial waste into an useful building product.
AAC blocks reduces indoor air pollutant, it is inert and does not emit toxic gases.
Skandiplader blocks manufacturing process reduces emission of Carbon Dioxide to the atmosphere thereby reducing Global Warming effect.
Reduction in cement for mortar consumption in masonry joints is 0.3 Cub. Mtr. for clay bricks verses 0.04 Cub. Mtr. for AAC Blocks i.e., 80% saving in cement and sand.
Only 10-12mm thick plaster is required as compared to 25mm for clay bricks i.e., 50% saving in cement and sand.

FEATURES OF AAC BLOCK
Light Weight
Oven dry density of skandiplader block is 550 to 650 kg/cum, i.e. just 1/3rd the weight of conventional clay bricks. and 1/4 weight of dense concrete. Due to which dead load on foundation as well as structure are reduced ensureing economic design thereby saving in concrete and reinforcement steel.
Insulating
skandiplader AAC blocks provide well insulated Interiors by keeping out warm air in summer and cold air in winter,thus reducing Air conditioning cost by 30% and it reduce load on HVAC system eventually saving electricity.
Fire Resistant
skandiplader AAC block have one of the highest hourly fire-resistance ratings compared to any building material, and non-combustible. The melting point of skandiplader AAC block is more than twice the temperature in a building fire.
Sound Insulation
skandiplader AAC blocks has an excellent Sound Transmission Class (STC) rating of 44 to 45 db. Hence ideal for Residential, Commercial buildings, Auditoriums, Theaters and for cutting of workshop sound from Offices.
Earthquake Resistant
Oven dry density of skandiplader block is 550 to 650 kg/cum, i.e. just 1/3rd the weight of conventional clay bricks. and 1/4 weight of dense concrete. Due to which dead load on foundation as well as structure are reduced ensureing economic design thereby saving in concrete and reinforcement steel.
Floor Space Area
skandiplader AAC blocks provide well insulated Interiors by keeping out warm air in summer and cold air in winter,thus reducing Air conditioning cost by 30% and it reduce load on HVAC system eventually saving electricity.
Easy to use and work
skandiplader AAC block have one of the highest hourly fire-resistance ratings compared to any building material, and non-combustible. The melting point of skandiplader AAC block is more than twice the temperature in a building fire.
High Strength
skandiplader AAC blocks has an excellent Sound Transmission Class (STC) rating of 44 to 45 db. Hence ideal for Residential, Commercial buildings, Auditoriums, Theaters and for cutting of workshop sound from Offices.
Water Penetration
Skandiplader AAC blocks structure being of closed cells, there is less capillary action and high surface activity allows for fast evaporation of moisture.
Pest Resistant
Skandiplader AAC blocks are made up of inorganic materials, which do not allow the growth of pests, termites and ants. As they do not nest in AAC blocks.
Versatile
Skandiplader AAC blocks have an attractive appearance and is readily adaptable to any style of architecture, almost any type of design can be achieved with these blocks.
Minimum wastage
Breakages of Skandiplader AAC blocks are comparatively less than 5%, compared to convention bricks having to 15%.
Cost saving
Skandiplader AAC blocks are 7 to 8 times the size of clay bricks, reducing the need for mortar joints by over 66%. Hence save cement and sand. Light weight properties lead to a lighter dead load on building structure resulting reduction in reinforcement steel and concrete. Due to surface accuracy of the blocks the thickness of plaster on Skandiplader AAC blocks is comparatively less. Thus save cement, sand and labour cost.
Water Saving
Skandiplader AAC blocks are steam cured, hence no need of curing after production unlike concrete blocks. At the time of construction block can be joined using ready made jointing chemical, so no need curing of wall, where as at least 7 days curing required for clay bricks / concrete blocks walls.
Time Saving
Time consumed in building walls decreases due to light weight of the product and its size over conventional clay bricks decreasing lead time as well as installation time.
Energy Efficient
Skandiplader AAC blocks are 100% Green building material and is a walling materail of a choice in LEED certified buildings. Skandiplader AAC blocks are energy & resource efficient in the sense that it uses least amount of energy and material per Cu.M. of products. Unlike bricks manufacturing process which uses precious top layer agriculture soil, Skandiplader AAC blocks uses fly ash (65 to 75% of its weight) thus provides most constructive solution to the Nation’s fly ash utilization problem.
