Thermal Performance
Aircrete has excellent thermal insulation characteristics, offering good thermal insulation and robust construction details, good thermal mass and air tightness properties.
Download PDFDesign Flexibility
Aircrete products are available in a range of sizes and densities so that a huge variety of buildings can be created from town houses to flats and apartments.
Download PDFFire Protection
Aircrete blocks do not burn. They are classified as non-combustible, having a Euroclass of A1 (the highest possible) and have a “class 0 (zero) surface spread of flame”.
Download PDFHealth & Safety
Aircrete is a strong but lightweight, low mass building material, allowing relatively large units to be used repetitively and without exceeding the guidelines for one-person lifting.
Download PDFSound
Aircrete’s intrinsic acoustic efficiency makes it a particularly appropriate material to use for internal and external walls in order to comply with Part E requirements.

Below ground
The light weight and faster build-speed of aircrete blocks mean foundations can be constructed quickly, easily and cost-effectively.
Download PDFFloors
Beam and aircrete block suspended floor systems offer improved thermal insulation, reliability and performance, whilst their lightweight construction and simple, system-build installation provides faster build times.
Download PDFExternal walls
Used for rendered or tile-hung external wall constructions, aircrete offers the labour-saving benefits of fast build whilst being one of the most cost-effective overall forms of construction using traditional skills.
Download PDFSolid walls
Building with solid external walls provides a speedy form of construction that takes full advantage of aircrete’s unique combination of light weight, strength and superior thermal performance.

Thin joint blockwork
Faster build times and increased productivity on site are offered by aircrete’s thin joint system. Thin layer mortar combined with aircrete blocks is an innovative building system that improves thermal performance, air tightness and waste reduction.
