AAC (Autoclaved Aerated Concrete) Blocks are smart building materials—lightweight, precast foam concrete made from eco-friendly ingredients like fly ash, cement, lime, gypsum, and aluminum powder. They’re cured in autoclaves to ensure superior strength, insulation, and fire resistance.
EkoBlocks AAC are up to 60% lighter, easier to work with, and offer faster construction. They provide excellent thermal and sound insulation, fire resistance up to 6 hours, and reduce your building’s environmental impact.
From cozy homes to towering high-rises, AAC blocks fit a wide range of applications. They’re perfect for residential, commercial, industrial, and institutional projects—especially in coastal or earthquake-prone zones.
Primarily used for non-load-bearing walls, AAC blocks can still support low-rise buildings when paired with proper structural design.
Thanks to their larger size and fewer joints, you’ll use less mortar and complete projects faster—cutting down labor time and overall structural load.
Standard size is 600 x 200 mm, with thicknesses ranging from 100 to 250 mm. Depending on the density, each block weighs between 8 to 18 kg—much lighter than traditional bricks.
Yes, they absorb very little water. For outdoor use or wet zones, a plaster or waterproof coating adds an extra layer of protection.
Forget traditional cement mixes—AAC blocks are laid using thin-bed mortar or adhesive. This makes installation quicker, cleaner, and more precise.
Extremely! EkoBlocks repurpose industrial waste (fly ash), consume less energy and water to produce, and help reduce CO2 emissions over a building’s lifecycle.
Durable and low-maintenance, buildings constructed with EkoBlocks can stand strong for over 75 years when installed properly.
EkoBlocks can withstand fire for up to 6 hours, making them an excellent choice for fire-rated walls and improving building safety.
Grooves can be easily chased into AAC walls. After placing conduits, seal with AAC-compatible
repair mortar.
Use ready-mix thin-bed mortar designed for AAC for strong bonding, thermal efficiency, and thin
joints.
Yes. They reduce structural load and are ideal as infill in RCC-framed high-rise buildings.
Yes. Made from recycled materials and energy-efficient, AAC blocks help earn green building
certifications.
EKO Blocks are Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (AAC) units manufactured by VS ECOBLOCKS Pvt. Ltd. They combine fly ash, cement, lime and aluminium powder to produce lightweight, dimensionally accurate walling units ideal for modern construction across Telangana and Andhra Pradesh.
Typical dry density is 550 – 650 kg/m³ with compressive strength above 4 MPa — strong enough for RCC infill and low-rise load-bearing walls.
How do EKO Blocks perform in Rayalaseema’s extreme heat?
Yes. They reduce dead load by ~60 %, making them perfect for RCC framed buildings in Hyderabad and Vijayawada.
Use EKO Adhesive thin-bed mortar (3 mm-6mm joint). It gives precision alignment and requires no curing — saving time and water.
Any polymer-modified or cementitious ready-mix plaster compatible with AAC. Avoid thick sand-cement plaster to retain thermal performance.
Yes, vertical joints every 6 m and at structural junctions to control movement in high-temperature zones like Nandyal.
Excellent — closed cell structure limits capillary absorption. Use 551-650 kg/m³ grade for coastal sites and add waterproof coating.
Yes. They earn LEED and GRIHA points under Energy Efficiency and Recycled Material sections.
Over 100 years with minimal maintenance — the inorganic matrix is termite-proof and weather-resistant.
They’re lighter, faster to lay and keep your home cooler. Your builder finishes sooner and your AC runs less — that’s a win-win.
Totally. EKO Blocks can withstand fire for up to 6 hours — a solid safety upgrade for homes and apartments.
Yes. Better insulation means less AC and heater use. Expect about 20–30 % energy savings over the year
Yes, just use a waterproof plaster or tile adhesive layer to seal moisture.
No, any breathable emulsion or exterior grade paint works fine. Avoid bitumen or oil paints that trap moisture.
Minor surface hairlines can happen if joints are too thick. Stick to EKO Adhesive’s 3 mm rule and you’re golden.
Really. Made from recycled fly ash, they save topsoil and cut CO₂ emissions throughout their life cycle.
Yes — use nylon or metal expansion anchors rated for AAC and don’t overtighten.
Yep. Their cellular structure reduces noise by 35–40 dB — perfect if your neighbour likes early morning drills.
Decades — these blocks don’t rot, warp or invite termites. Think “one build for a lifetime.”
No soaking, no swimming pool needed — just wipe off dust before you apply EKO Adhesive.
Keep it around 3 mm. If you can float a boat in your joint, it’s too thick.
Mix water first, then add powder. Blend until creamy — no dry clumps, no soupy mess. Use within 3 hours.
No curing — go grab chai instead. Just keep walls shaded for 24 hours.
Yes, use a hand saw or electric cutter — they cut like butter, not like brick.
Use a rubber mallet and spirit level — not your hammer of rage. Gentle taps only.
Technically yes, but why go backwards? EKO Adhesive gives stronger bonds and less cracking.
Use the same EKO Adhesive paste — smooth it and move on.
Keep them on pallets, off the ground, and cover with plastic if it rains.
Dry layout your first course, check levels, then adhesive away. Straight walls make happy engineers.
