Reduce structural load while maintaining performance.
Save time and money with easy-pour, self-compacting application.
Enhance energy efficiency and utilize sustainable materials.
Benefit from superior fire resistance and sound insulation.
From insulation and filling to structural elements, our NLAC technology provides a solution.
By choosing NLAC, you are not just selecting a material; you are opting for a smarter, more efficient, and sustainable future for construction.
NanoPORE™ Advanced Lightweight Aerated Concrete (NLAC) has many advantages over ordinary Foamed Concrete (CLC), Aerated Autoclaved Concrete (AAC) and even other insulation materials.

Basic Raw materials |
Cement, Fly ash or sand, water &
foaming compound & additives |
Cement, lime, Fly ash or sand,
Aeration compound & High energy

|
Production Process and setup |
Can be produced at both centralized
plant as well as at project site using
exclusive mixer and foaming generator |
Produced only in well established
plant equipped with steam boiler and
high pressure auto-claves |
|
Curing Process |
Normal Air or water curing is sufficient.
For accelerated curing, steam curing
under normal atmospheric pressure is
sufficient. |
Curing under 160 to 200 Deg Celsius
and at pressure of 12 Bar using
Autoclaving chamber. |

Density area |
100-1400 kg/cbm |
400-700 kg/cbm |
|
Water absorption |
Less as it has closed cell pores and so
water penetration is less |
More as the pores are interconnected
due to the escape of Hydrogen gas
while in aeration process |
|
Eco- Friendliness |
– Pollution free – Least energy requirement – uses industrial wastes Fly ash, slag, etc. – Saves Transportation cost and vehicular pollution due to that if produced at site |
– Pollution due to burning of oil or |

Water absorption |
In very low density, it absorbs high
amount of water due to too many
pores but releases as soon as it
dries |
Absorbs water but won’t release
water easily and so affects
insulation |
More as
the pores are
interconnected due to loosely
connected fibres and releases
quickly but fibres get soggy
losses porosity and insulation. |
|
Resistance to Fire |
Very high, A1
Emits no smoke nor spreads the
flame in the building
People can escape from fire easily |
Very Low, E
Emits toxic smoke and spreads
the flame quickly in the building
Difficult to escape from fire
easily and people may suffocate
from the toxic smoke |
High, A1-A2
Emits no smoke nor spreads the
flame in the building
People can escape from fire easily |
