The van As home in Cape Town was built using Aertec AAC blocks, selected by the home owner for the material's combination of rapid construction, high build quality, and superior performance characteristics. The lightweight blocks reduced structural loads throughout while delivering excellent thermal insulation and acoustic separation.
Aertec AAC's workability was a key advantage for this project, with the blocks easily cut to the precise sizes required for the architectural design. The precision dimensions ensured straight, plumb walls throughout, simplifying the plastering process and reducing overall finishing time.
The home owner was particularly pleased with the thermal comfort achieved — the AAC walls maintain a stable internal temperature year-round, reducing reliance on heating and cooling systems.
