What are AAC Panels?
AAC panels, or Autoclaved Aerated Concrete panels, are building materials made up of sand, cement, lime, and aluminum powder. These panels are lightweight yet sturdy and durable due to the cellular structure formed during the autoclaving process, which cures them under high pressure and temperature. AAC panels are noted for their thermal insulation, fire resistance, and simplicity of installation. They are widely utilized in residential, commercial, and industrial structures for walls, floors, and roofs.
