How AAC is made
From slurry to finished block
An overview of the general AAC manufacturing process used across the industry.
- 01
Raw materials
AAC is generally made from a siliceous material (such as sand or fly ash), cement, lime, gypsum and a small amount of aluminium powder, mixed with water.
- 02
Mixing & casting
The slurry is mixed and poured into large moulds.
- 03
Rising
A reaction releases tiny gas bubbles that make the mix rise. This is what gives AAC its aerated, cellular structure.
- 04
Cutting
Once firm, the cake is wire-cut into blocks of the required dimensions.
- 05
Autoclaving
Blocks are cured under steam pressure in an autoclave.
- 06
Stacking & dispatch
Finished blocks are stacked, stored and dispatched to site.
