Why the Saudi Client Invested in a 300,000 m³/year AAC Plant?
Saudi customers usually care about the following factors:
1. High demand from mega-projects
Saudi Arabia’s large-scale developments require:
- Lightweight wall systems
- Fire-resistant materials
- Better thermal insulation for desert climate
→ AAC is now a preferred material for residential, commercial, and industrial buildings.
2. Shortage of local AAC suppliers
Large contractors face supply delays and high prices.
Owning an Planta de hormigón celular ensures:
- Stable supply
- Controlled quality
- Higher profit margins
3. Ideal capacity for national market
A 300,000 m³/year (large) AAC plant matches Saudi demand, allowing the client to supply:
- Riyadh
- Dammam
- Jeddah
- NEOM and Western regions
What Is an AAC Block Machine?
An AAC (Autoclaved Aerated Concrete) block plant is a complete production system used to manufacture lightweight aerated concrete blocks. The plant includes raw material mixing, pouring, rising, cutting, autoclaving, and packaging.
The final product—AAC blocks—is widely used in modern buildings because of its insulation performance, low weight, fire resistance, and energy efficiency.
AAC Block Plant Capacity Options
Below is a general classification for investors evaluating plant sizes:
| Plant Type | Capacity (m³/year) | Lo mejor para |
|---|---|---|
| Mini planta de hormigón celular | 30,000 - 100,000 | Startups, local markets, low investment |
| Planta media de hormigón celular | 100,000 - 200,000 | Regional market supply |
| Gran planta de hormigón celular | 200,000 – 600,000+ | National-scale mass production |
