Aerocon Panels are ideal for Indian climates due to their thermal insulation, durability, and resistance to extreme weather, termites, and fire, ensuring energy-efficient and long-lasting construction.
Climate Resilience
Aerocon Panels are engineered to withstand India’s diverse and often extreme climatic conditions. They are highly resistant to water, heat, wind, and dust, making them suitable for both coastal and arid regions. Their composition—consisting of a lightweight core of Portland cement, binders, and silicaceous materials sandwiched between fiber-reinforced cement sheets—ensures stability under high humidity and temperature fluctuations. This weatherproof nature prevents deterioration over time, even in prolonged exposure to monsoon rains or scorching summers.
Thermal and Acoustic Performance
These panels offer excellent thermal insulation, reducing heat transfer and maintaining cooler indoor temperatures. This property significantly lowers dependence on air conditioning, contributing to energy efficiency and reduced electricity costs—critical in India’s hot climate. Additionally, the sandwich structure provides effective sound insulation, minimizing external noise pollution from traffic or urban activity, thereby enhancing indoor comfort.
Structural and Economic Advantages
Due to their lightweight nature, Aerocon Panels reduce structural load on buildings, allowing for cost savings of up to 20% in steel and cement usage. They enable faster construction—up to 10–20 times quicker than traditional brickwork—because they are pre-cured and require no on-site curing or plastering. This dry construction method also conserves water, aligning with sustainable building practices.
Durability and Safety
Aerocon Panels are fire-resistant with a two-hour fire rating, making them ideal for fire separation walls and high-safety zones. They are also termite-proof and resistant to fungi and bacteria, addressing common challenges in tropical environments where wood-based materials are vulnerable. Their durability ensures a lifespan of approximately 50 years, and they are suitable for all four seismic zones in India, including cyclone-prone areas.
Sustainability and Space Efficiency
Made with eco-friendly materials like fly ash and free from asbestos or toxic emissions, these panels support green building initiatives and are certified by the Indian Green Building Council (IGBC). With a thickness of just 75mm, they are equivalent to a 150mm concrete wall, thereby increasing usable floor space by up to 5%—a valuable benefit in urban real estate
