AAC Block Plant Exported to Angola

75,000 mยณ/Year AAC Block Plant Exported to Angola

In March 2025, we successfully delivered, installed, and commissioned a 75,000 mยณ/Year AAC Block Manufacturing Plant to Angolaโ€”aligning with the countryโ€™s National Housing Program (Programa Nacional de Habitaรงรฃo) and growing demand for eco-friendly, cost-effective building materials.

CountryAngola
Annual Production Capacity75,000 mยณ/year
Plant TypeSemi-Automatic Mini AAC Block Manufacturing Plant
Client TypeAngolan construction firm transitioning from traditional concrete blocks to eco-friendly AAC
Service ProvidedFull turnkey solution (Custom Design + Equipment Supply + On-site Installation + Operator Training + 2-Year After-Sales Support + Local Regulatory Compliance)

Why the Angolan Client Chose a 75,000 mยณ/Year Plant?

Our clientโ€”an established concrete block supplier in Luandaโ€”selected the 75,000 mยณ/year mini plant for three practical, client-centric reasons:

  1. Market Fit: Luandaโ€™s AAC block demand is 70,000โ€“85,000 mยณ/year (2025 industry data), with most orders coming from small-to-medium housing projects. The 75,000 mยณ capacity ensures the client can meet local demand without overinvesting in unused production.
  2. Cost-Efficiency: At ~820,000 USD, the setup cost fits the clientโ€™s budget for expansion. The plant also requires only 10 workers per shift (vs. 15+ for medium-scale lines), reducing ongoing labor expensesโ€”critical in Angolaโ€™s labor market.
  3. Scalability: We designed the plant for future growthโ€”key components (autoclaves, batching systems) can be upgraded to 120,000 mยณ/year within 12 months. This lets the client expand to serve other regions (e.g., Benguela, Lubango) as Angolaโ€™s housing program scales.

Detailed Equipment Configuration for AAC Block Plant Exported to Angola

All machinery is customized to Angolaโ€™s conditions (local raw materials, occasional power outages) and meets Angolaโ€™s building standards (NBR 15823:2020 for AAC blocks):

EquipmentCustomization for AngolaFunction
Ball Mill (ฮฆ1.7m ร— 4.3m)High-wear liners to process Angolaโ€™s abrasive river sand and coconut shell ashGrinds raw materials into fine powder (85% passing 200-mesh sieve) for uniform slurry
Automatic Batching SystemCalibrated for coconut shell ash (replaces 15% of cement) to maintain block strength (โ‰ฅ2.9 MPa)Precisely measures materials (cement:lime:sand = 1:2.4:1.6) for consistent quality
Slurry Mixing TankDual-speed agitator (25/40 RPM) to prevent sedimentation of dense local sandMixes powder and water into homogeneous slurry (solid content: 63โ€“67%)
Mold & Casting MachineCorrosion-resistant plates (for Angolaโ€™s humid coastal climate) + non-stick coatingForms โ€œgreen cakesโ€ (semi-solid blocks) during pre-curing (5โ€“6 hours)
Vertical Cutting MachineManual backup controls (for power outages) + dust-collection system (meets Angolaโ€™s environmental laws)Cuts green cakes into Angola-standard sizes (600ร—200ร—100/150/230mm)
Autoclave (ฮฆ2.0m ร— 26m)Biomass-fueled (uses coconut shell wasteโ€”30% cheaper than diesel)Strengthens blocks with high-temperature steam (185โ€“190ยฐC for 7 hours)
Steam BoilerWater treatment system (for Luandaโ€™s hard water) to reduce scale buildupGenerates steam for autoclave; 22% more energy-efficient than standard models
Separating & Packing SystemWeatherproof wrapping (for Angolaโ€™s rainy season) + durable bundles for local transportSeparates and packages blocks into 10-unit bundles (standard for Angolan logistics)

Export Process of AAC Block Plant Exported to Angola

We navigated Angolaโ€™s unique logistics and regulatory requirements to ensure zero delays:

  1. Pre-Production Preparation: Tested 4 batches of local raw materials (coconut shell ash, fly ash, river sand) to optimize the production formula; designed layout with a 20kW backup generator (for Luandaโ€™s occasional power outages).
  2. Manufacturing & Quality Checks: 36-day production cycle with 3 weekly video inspections by the client; dry runs and load tests confirmed no defects before shipment.
  3. Shipping & Documentation: Shipped via Luanda Port (Angolaโ€™s main trade gateway) using 7ร—40HQ containers; prepared all required docs (Certificate of Origin, NBR 15823:2020 compliance report, customs forms, commercial invoice).

On-Site Installation & Operator Training

Our 4-person engineering team ensured seamless setup and knowledge transfer:

  • Mechanical installation (18 days): Adjusted equipment for Angolaโ€™s 230V/50Hz power supply; reinforced autoclave foundation for Luandaโ€™s clay soil.
  • Electrical setup (8 days): Installed PLC control system with Portuguese interface (Angolaโ€™s official language) + backup generator integration.
  • Training (6 days): Trained 10 local workers on safe equipment operation, troubleshooting common issues, and quality control (per NBR 15823:2020 standards).

Post-Commissioning Performance

One month after launch, the plant exceeded the clientโ€™s expectations:

Autoclave of aac block manufactuing plant
  • Daily Output: 200โ€“220 mยณ (on track for 75,000 mยณ/year capacity).
  • Block Quality: 96.8% qualification rate (meets NBR 15823:2020 standards); compressive strength (3.1 MPa), density (570 kg/mยณ), and thermal conductivity (0.14 W/mK) all above industry averages.
  • Energy Efficiency: Uses 29% less fuel than the clientโ€™s previous concrete block plant (thanks to biomass-powered autoclaves).
  • Market Success: Secured contracts for 2 residential projects in Luanda and 1 small commercial building in Benguela; received 4 new inquiries within 6 weeks.

What Our Client Says?

โ€œWe were nervous about switching to AAC productionโ€”no one in our area had done it before,โ€ said Mr. Silva, the clientโ€™s managing director. โ€œThis team made it easy: they tested our local coconut shell ash, trained our workers in Portuguese, and handled all customs paperwork. The plant runs smoothly, and weโ€™re winning more housing project contracts than ever. In 2 years, weโ€™ll upgrade to 120,000 mยณ/yearโ€”and weโ€™ll only work with them.โ€
