THE TECHNOLOGY
ECO BLOCKS® are Cellular Lightweight Concrete
(CLC) blocks produced using European technology.
This is conventional concrete where natural
aggregate, like gravel, is replaced with the best
insulation medium, Air. This also reduces its weight
without losing other properties of the concrete.
To produce ECO BLOCKS®, air is embedded in an
organic and bio-degradable foam and then mixed with
cement slurry and shaped into specific concrete
block sizes. Here the foam solely serves as wrapping
material for the air that reduces weight and provide
higher thermal insulation properties to the block.
Like conventional concrete, ECO BLOCKS® increases
in strength when exposed to moisture and become
tougher over time.
PRODUCTS
We produce Cellular Lightweight Concrete in two
forms. One is block which is called ECO BLOCKS®.
The other one is in slurry form which is called ECO
FILLER®. While ECO BLOCKS® are used as brick
laying, ECO FILLER® is applied in cast-in-situ
production.
Our mobile production units can be installed at your
construction site to deliver ECO FILLER® in real
time.
CELLULAR
BENEFITS PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
1. Savings in Construction Cost: The density of regular concrete is normally measured at
Substantial savings in raw material, as no gravel 2,400 kg/m³ whereas the density of ECO BLOCKS®
required. In dead load of high-rise reducing by ranges from 600 kg/m³ to 1,700 kg/m³. Following table
almost half. Considering that a substantial amount shows the properties of ECO BLOCKS® for different
densities:
of steel is necessary only to carry the weight of the
structure, steel requirement might reduce by
hundreds of tons in high rise.
2. Thermal Insulation:
Thermal Insulation increasingly turns to be the
most important issue in the planning and
construction of buildings. There are many costly
ways of insulation. The best solution is, to
incorporate thermal insulation in the mix of a
concrete, such a solution is ECO BLOCKS®. The
material can be cast onsite for rooftop insulation. BLOCK DIMENSIONS
3. Sound Insulation: We produce ECO BLOCKS® in different sizes. The sizes
Sound is transmitted as air-borne and generated are determined considering bonding strength and cost
through impact such as footsteps. ECO BLOCKS® savings in brick laying. Though the blocks can be cut,
offer superior protection of air-borne sound nailed and drilled for specific purposes, we can provide
transmission. In impact sound, it is absorbed by customized sizes as per the customer requirements.
ECO BLOCKS®. Walls of ECO BLOCKS® will also
serve as sound retaining walls on roads or railway Following are the most common sizes of ECO BLOCKS®:
tracks therefore, absorbing the sound and
preventing it from bouncing to the other side.
4. Fire Protection:
The air-embedded in the ECO BLOCKS® are
instrumental for the high fire-rating. In 1,200
kg/m³ density a 13-14 cm thick wall has a fire
endurance of 5 hours. The same delay occurs with
a 400 kg/m³ layer of ECO BLOCKS® in only 10 cm
thickness. ECO BLOCKS® are otherwise non-
combustible.
5. Economical Production:
The cost for 1 m³ of ECO BLOCKS®, in most cases,
is even less than the equivalent volume of
conventional concrete. Adding all the highly-
appreciated benefits of ECO BLOCKS® over regular
concrete, if possible at all, the cost for such
regular concrete would probably double but still
not reach the overall quality of ECO BLOCKS®.
