About us

Committed to providing the United S t a t e s w i t h e n v i r o n m e n t a l l y responsible building products that conserve material and energy usage, Xella’s Hebel Aerated Concrete is recognized as the largest producer in Europe by capaci ty based on management estimates based on different sources and member of the Green Building Council. In addition, it has a high UL rat ing for f ire resistance.

Xella Aircrete North America is a division of Germany-based Xella International. More than 6.000 employees for Xella’s total 97 plants and offices throughout 30 countries worldwide, including North America, Europe and Asia.

Hebel Aerated Concrete provides contractors with strong, easy-to-install blocks and reinforced panels that are one-third the weight of traditional concrete and replace traditional multi-step construction processes. In addition, Hebel is energy efficient, fire resistant and long lasting, which, over time, will reduce energy, insurance and maintenance costs to building owners. A wide range of industries can benefit from Hebel’s custom blocks and reinforced panels, including those in the commercial, educational, hospitality, industrial, institutional, governmental and residential markets.

Xella Aircrete North America, the leading manufacturer of Hebel® Aerated Concrete Autoclaved (AAC) is an amazingly innovative building material that has been used in Europe for more than 80 years and in the US for more than 15 years. Products and systems have been developed for all types of the construction industry:Industrial, commercial, high-rise buildings, schools, hospital and more.

Hebel® AAC is a l ightweight concrete that is formed into blocks and reinforced panels for a wide range of loadbearing and non-l o a d b e a r i n g c o n s t r u c t i o n applications. It is manufactured from sand, cement, recycled material, lime, gypsum, aluminium paste and water. It is moulded, cut and steam pressure cured in an autoclave before being packed, ready for transport.

Hebel® AAC delivers more benefits than the traditional materials such as strength, acoustics, fire and pest resistance and is installed faster, saving valuable construction time.

It has a unique combination of thermal mass and insulat ion providing a more comfortable living environment.

Why HebelO n e o f t h e w o r l d s l e a d i n g manufacturer of Hebel autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC), Xella A i r c r e t e N o r t h A m e r i c a i s transforming the building industry with Hebel, its ultra-lightweight concrete.

BenefitsAerated Concrete Hebel®:Unique properties in a single material.

This product meets Standards and Evaluation issued by:

Fire ResistantHEBEL AAC has proven to remain fully intact and withstand the stress of fire for up to 4 hours without any impairment to its stability. Even under intense heat, HEBEL AAC remains tightly sealed against smoke and gas, emitting no toxic fumes.

Thermal InsulationBuildings constructed of HEBEL AAC provide substantial energy savings in both hot and cold climates. The unique closed cellular structure and the thermal mass contribute to a high R-value and air-tightness which reduce heating and cooling costs and improve indoor air quality. Buildings have seen savings on air conditioning up to 35% by using HEBEL AAC.

Structural PerformanceStrength can resist wind pressures without reinforcement. Shear wall strength can resist lateral loads. High impact resistance.

Resistance to humidityYour works are always protected against moisture. It allows the passage of water vapor, reducing condensation. It is an inert material.

Acoustic InsulationThe solid wall construction of a building made of Hebel AAC provides exceptional acoustic insulation. Its porous structure and high surface mass, coupled with its ability to dampen mechanical vibration energy, greatly reduces outside environmental.
