HEBEL AAC panels HEBEL AAC-panels are an intelligent solution for industrial and commercial constructions. Buildings constructed from solid HEBEL aerated concrete ensure a high level of building quality in walls and roof.

Production HEBEL-panels are reinforced autoclaved aerated concrete elements, and are a completely cured, inert and stable form of calcium silicate hydrate. The structure is composed of very small pores which give the HEBEL material its high thermal insulation and valuable water vapour diffusion characteristics. Its high insulation values and positive ecological balance make it one of the traditional materials of yesterday, today and tomorrow. HEBEL is manufactured by a closely controlled factory process with the basic raw materials such as cement, lime, finely ground sand and water with the...

Fire resistance For many years, fire walls made from HEBEL components have proven themselves in logistic companies and distributions centres. The structural fire protection conceps for these buildings become more demanding. HEBEL is the answer. HEBEL cladding panels A 150 mm thick Hebel cladding panel has 6 hours fire resistance (360 minutes). However, the fire resistance of a wall is determined by the total wall concept (BS 7621:1987). Please contact our technical service for further detail HEBEL offers protection. Aerated concrete inhibits heat transfer Spread of fire without fire...

Prevention from secondary fires Other material : spreading of fire through burning material that falls down or melts Aerated concrete does not melt or burn No smoke occurs upon fire Other building materials often emit a lott of smoke When a fire occurs Hebel does not emit smoke or toxic gasses. 5

Installation Hebel wall panels are suitable for use on any structure (steel, concrete or wood). Of course, work will proceed more smoothly and the cost benefits will be that much greater if, at the design stage, allowance is made for all of the features of our products. The wall panels can be mounted horizontally or vertically. Consult the HEBEL application instructions. Joints a. Horizontal mounting Where the wall panels are mounted horizontally, the horizontal joint should de filled with a foam strip (EI < 3h) or with HEBEL thin bed mortar –Ytocol (EI > 3h). Vertical joints can be sealed...

Important notes a. The wall panels are cut to thickness using steel wire. The visible face shows the direction of cut which is apparent as the “grain” of the panel. To avoid significant colour contrasts caused by incident light from the sides, it’s advisable to always ensure that wall panels on the same façade or elevation are all mounted “ with the grain”. For this purpose, one face of all wall panels- whether horizontal or vertical mount- is marked with an arrow, on the end of each panel, indicating the direction of the main reinforcement (also for sawn panels). The arrow should always be...
