What are Featherlite Blocks?

Flyash Blocks are manufactured from fly ash, lime, gypsum, and sand. At Featherlite Buildcon, we use Aerated Autoconclave Concrete (AAC) technology to manufacture fly ash blocks. Our building blocks consist of 60% air; these aerated materials are processed through autoclaving, which entails high-pressure curing of aerated materials formed in cellular shapes, which are known as AAC elements. These elements can be further classified into blocks, walls, floors, roof panels, and lintels. 

Featherlite Buildcon Blocks are used as a substitute for conventional building masonry. They have been widely accepted globally because of their benefits, such as lightweight, thermal and sound insulation, mould resistance, and other benefits that ease the construction process.

Features & Benefits

Cost-Saving

Featherlite blocks are X9 the size of clay bricks, reducing the need for mortar joints by over 66%.

Energy Efficient

Featherlite blocks help with Thermal Insulation by maintaining distinct internal and external room temperatures, thereby saving energy costs. 

Fire-Resistant

Featherlite blocks are fire-resistant for about 2 to 6 hours, depending on the thickness of the wall. 

Pest Resistant

Featherlite blocks are made of inorganic materials, which keep termites away and prevent wall damage.

Water Saver

Featherlite blocks do not need watering; only the conventional mortar joints need to be cured with water, thereby reducing water consumption.

Minimum Storage

Featherlite Buildcon maintains a year-round supply; hence, buyers benefit from minimum storage requirements.

Time Saving

Featherlite blocks’ lightweight property makes them easy to handle compared to conventional bricks and decreases lead time and installation time. 

Sound Insulation

Featherlite blocks have a commendable Sound Transmission Class (STC), which is appropriate for sound insulation in building walls

5 Dry Density (As per IS codes) 1800 kg/m3

 

550-650 kg/m3 Its one-third of the weight of clay brick which makes it easy to lift and transport

 

1800 kg/m3

 

6 Cost Benefit

 

For high rise buildings there will be reduction of dead  weight which leads to saving in concrete and steel  quantities.

 

Increase dead load of the building, So steel consumption becomes high. Also plaster & bricks joining cost high compared to Featherlite Blocks.

 

7 Fire Resistance (Heat Resistance)(on 8″ Wall)

 

Up to 4 Hours

 

Around 1 Hour

 

8 Moisture Content

 

Gradualy decrease up to 4 to 6 % in 2 to 3 years

 

Never gets less than 10 to 13 %

 

9 Quality of End  Product

 

Factory made product. So the quality of end product is consistent and good

 

Locally made product. Quality depends on various parameters like quality of soil used,process of manufacture etc.

 

10 Sound Insulation

 

High Sound absorption / insulation as compared to bricks

 

Normal

 

11 Energy Saving

 

Low thermal conductivity (0.24 Kw-M/C) helps in saving electricity costs 30% for heating and cooling of house.

 

High thermal conductivity (0.81 Kw-M/C). So no cost savings.

 

12 Environmental Friendliness

 

In the Manufacturing process of Featherlite Blocks only 50% of natural available material used & 50% air bubbles is present in it by it’s mfg design.

 

One sq ft of carpet area with clay brick walling will consume 25.5 kg of top soil (approx). It actually damages environment

 

13 Internal and External Plaster

 

As these bricks have dimensional accuracy, the internal and external plaster thickness become very low

 

Requires thick plaster surface as there are variations in the dimensions and due to uneven surface.

 

14 Joining Process

 

Chemical mortars can be used for joining the blocks.  This reduces the material consumption of cement and also avoids curing process

 

Traditional mortar needs to be used and the brick work should be cured at least for 7 days before plastering

 

15 Availability

 

Availability of material in all season with suitable prices.

 

No production in rainy season, so high price variation and unavailability during monsoon.

 

16 Thermal Insulator

 

Featherlite Blocks are very high thermal insulator, if cooling is a major component of any building then energy expenses will be saved for entire lifetime.(0.21-0.42 W/m K )

 

It has low thermal insulation as compare to Featherlite Block ( 0.6 – 1.0 W/m K )

 

17 Tax Contribution

 

Contributes to government taxes in form of GST

 

No tax contribution

 

18 Water Sustainability

 

Due to its closed matrix structure it allows water to penetrate the surface very slowly. ( 5.6- 7.2%)

 

Water absorption sustainability is very low.(13- 14%)

 

19 Range of Application

 

They are suitable for non load bearing or RCC structure  in partition wall

 

They are useful in both load bearing and nonload bearing structure
