Generic benefits <strong>of</strong> <strong>Aircrete</strong>. These features are true <strong>for</strong><br />
all products in the range<br />
Highlight the good per<strong>for</strong>mance <strong>of</strong> the blocks in each <strong>of</strong><br />
these points<br />
Many product features are due to composition <strong>of</strong> product<br />
eg. cellular structure<br />
Emphasis on:<br />
Lightweight - The cellular structure <strong>of</strong> the material<br />
ensures a lightweight construction. During<br />
installation, most aircrete blocks can be lifted with<br />
one hand providing significant productivity<br />
advantages.<br />
Workability - I.e. cutting & chasing using hand tools<br />
NB, Resistant to sulfate attack up to and including Class<br />
