YTONG AAC Blocks

YTONG Aerated Autoclaved Concrete (AAC) Blocks are a range of high-performance, sustainable building materials designed to meet various construction needs. Manufactured using a precise autoclaving process, Ytong AAC blocks are known for their lightweight properties, excellent thermal insulation, and fire resistance, making them an ideal choice for energy-efficient building designs.

YTONG AAC Blocks offers integrated services and solutions for applications such as:

1. Energy upgrading of buildings

2. Thermal insulation of walls, and roofs, with thermal conductivity coefficient λ up to 0,084 W/mK

3. Soundproofing

4. Seismic protection. The low weight of the masonry made of Ytong Blocks burdens the building with small loads.

5. High fire protection since the fire resistance index of Ytong Blocks reaches 6 hours. According to Decision 96/603/EC of the Commission of the European Communities, Ytong AAC Blocks are classified in class A1 ("does not contribute to fire").

6. Specifies & participates in big construction projects such as subways, airports & railways, malls, factories, hotels, houses.
