Concrete that is Lighter, Sustainable & Eco-Friendly! 

At present, almost every insulating material is either of the following:

–Petroleum based such as Extruded Polystyrene (XPS) or Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) boards or Polyurethane foam or

–Natural mineral based such as Mineral wool, glass wool, natural fibre, etc, are used.

​

Petroleum based Insulation Material

  –If the building catches fire, these insulation materials catches fire quickly, spreads it to entire building and also produces toxic gases, which will suffocate the people inside the building before escaping or get caught in the fire easily (Famous example of Grenfall Fire Accident in UK).

  –After demolition of building, it will take very long years to degrade that will cause damage to the environment

Natural Mineral-based 

  -Very limited natural resources and so availability is limited and getting costlier every year

  -Glass wool silvers will lodge in the skills and small enough to inhale causing lung cancer

​

Advanced Lightweight Aerated Concrete (ALAC) is made of inorganic materials such as cement, fly ash and/or sand that won’t catch fire easily, won’t produce smoke or toxic gases and because of its high thermal insulation property, it protects from heat and helps to escape from the building. ALAC uses only cement, fly ash and sand that can be re used as filler material after crushing or can be recycled for producing fresh Aerated Concrete or gets converted to soil after dumping it in the ground. ALAC can be used in various applications like sunken filling, for building walls, for insulating walls and roofs effectively, as decorative elements, etc.
