Top Eco-Friendly AAC Block Manufacturers in India
LiCON AAC Blocks is revolutionizing construction with its core features like strength, durability, and eco-friendliness. Its lightweight property provides improved insulation, fire resistance, and better structural integrity. LiCON AAC (Autoclaved Aerated Concrete) Blocks are made from premium-quality raw materials like fly ash, cement, lime, sand, and water, they are widely chosen for their sustainable nature. Their porous nature gives them excellent thermal efficiency, and it helps reduce energy consumption in buildings by reducing the cost of temperature maintenance. Unlike traditional clay bricks, LiCON AAC Blocks are larger yet lighter, enabling a quicker construction while reducing material wastage. With its high load-bearing capacity, it becomes a suitable option for residential, commercial, and industrial projects.
AAC blocks are also widely preferred recently due to their property of contributing to sustainable construction by using recycled industrial waste and reducing carbon emissions. Builders, architects, and engineers prefer LiCON AAC Blocks for ease of use, cost effectiveness, and long life. Whether it’s skyscrapers or independent homes, our AAC blocks give the most balancing solution of strength and sustainability, making them the best choice for modern infrastructure.

Raw Materials Behind LiCON AAC Blocks
- Fly Ash (Industrial Waste Recycling) : Fly ash reused from thermal power plants minimizes waste and carbon impact, resulting in sustainable construction with eco-friendly benefits.
- Cement : Cement functions as a binding agent, improving the structural integrity, durability, and lifespan of AAC blocks, ensuring long-term building quality.
- Lime : It improves workability and stability, making building projects lighter, more aerated, easier to handle, and structurally reliable.
- Sand : It preserves uniformity and strength, enhancing the block's resistance to adverse weather conditions and supporting long-term performance.
- Water : It contributes significantly to the chemical process, generating a porous structure that improves insulation, durability, and overall block strength.
By using recycled fly ash, LiCON AAC Blocks support eco-friendly construction while maintaining superior quality and performance.

Method of Constructing AAC Block Walls & Precautions
Prepare a Flat & Dry Base
Ensure that AAC blocks are stacked on a flat and level surface. Use only completely dry blocks.
Clean the Block Surface
Brush off dust or rinse AAC blocks with water to remove debris before use.
Lay the Base with Leveling
Use a sand-cement mix to create a level base and align the grooves of the blocks properly.
Apply Thin-Bed Mortar
Use a toothed trowel to spread 3–5 mm of Lycon mortar. If using conventional mortar, maintain 10–12 mm joint thickness.
Arrange Blocks in Straight Rows
Place AAC blocks in uniform rows on the prepared surface until the wall is completed.
Stagger the Vertical Joints
Ensure vertical joints don’t align directly above each other; follow a staggered pattern.
Add Coping Beams & Lintels
Install a coping beam every 4 rows and place a 6/8 mm lintel above windows.
Include Support Pillars
For longer walls, build a support pillar every 10 feet to improve structural stability.
Provide Grooves for Electrical Work
Use power tools to make grooves in the blocks for wires and pipes.
Create a Groove After Plastering
After applying plaster, cut a 1 cm groove on top before the plaster sets.
