Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (AAC) Blocks

BRIXOLite I  HIGH STRENGTH LIGHTWEIGHT  I  AAC BLOCKS 

It is a lightweight masonry made of fly ash, lime, gypsum and cement, and autoclaved at high pressure. During the chemical process millions of tiny bubbles are formed causing the mixture to rise in a manner similar to bread rising. After the casting is set, it is cut into the panel or block dimensions by pulling it through wires strung on a loom. The casting is then fully cured in a large steam chamber called an autoclave.












Application

Ideal for Masonry work for High Rise , Commercial and Industrial Buildings.

Special Features

  • BRIXOLlite is green building product manufactured using 70 % of recycled material.
  • BRIXOLlite is 65 % less in weight than conventional clay bricks. It saves approximately 15 % to 20% of the steel requirement in reinforcement. It’s excellent size/weight ratio allows faster construction work.
  • It’s uniform and bigger size of blocks enable speedy construction.
  • High compressive strength makes BRIXOLlite solid, therefore recommended for load bearing wall also having minimum breakage .
  • Dimensional accuracy result, BRIXOLlite an extremely easy to install, save mortar and plaster consumption.
  • It can be available in different sizes according to project’s requirement.
  • The porous structure of BRIXOLlite provides a high acoustic insulation.
  • BRIXOLlite blocks are having very low thermal conductivity and therefore a high thermal energy efficiency is achieved. It reduce the inside temperature which results in cost savings for heating and cooling.
  • One of the important property of extremely higher fire resistance gives product rating at least 4 hours and more.
